Welcome to the Peace Planet Project
Painting by Laura Merrell, Wave of Peace The purpose of the Peace Planet Project is to make a conscious shift in our direction as a planet toward PEACE NOW. Join the countless number of Earth's people who know that peace is not only possible, it is happening.

Today, more individuals and organizations than ever before are committed to the practice of peace and the healing of our planet. The need to be consciously united in our purpose is profound and urgent.

The Peace Planet Project is committed to supporting those who work toward a new era of Peace and the well-being of our planet.

The Peace Planet Proclamation
The Peace Planet Proclamation This Proclamation is a written document which declares our resolute intention to manifest lasting peace and the well-being of all Earth's inhabitants. It is serving to unite and support many diverse and extraordinary peace, justice, environmental, and faith organizations around the world today.

It is 11" by 14" in size and is printed on 100% recycled paper using soy-based ink, for sale on this website. The Proclamation is being translated into 14 different languages and has already touched many hearts on nearly all continents.

While not originally intended as a fundraising tool, the Proclamation has been incredibly successful for this purpose. We are offering a wholesale rate for purchases in large quantities. See the Peace Planet Proclamation page for more information about using it as a fundraising tool to support both your own organization and The Peace Alliance.

Individuals can also purchase smaller quantities of the Proclamation for their own use.



Global Peace Gathering 8.8.08
Glastonbury Tor On August 8, 2008, Peace Planet Project is sponsoring a 24-hour global peace meditation, the heart of which will be in Glastonbury, England, near the ancient, sacred site of Glastonbury Tor.

Participants will gather around the image of a new symbol for peace, inspired by sacred geometry, created in the landscape using Earth-friendly means, by artist Laura Merrell. The participatory artwork will be photographed from the air by eco-photographer Daniel Dancer. Together we will hold the vision and vigil for World PEACE and the HEALING OF OUR PLANET for 24 hours. The gathering and image will be lit at night for aerial photos during dark hours. This promises to be a profound experience on a personal and planetary level.

We at the Peace Planet Project will invite simultaneous vigils to take place around the world from 12:00 am 8.8.08 until 12:00 am 8.9.08 (UT-Universal Time/GMT-Greenwich Mean Time). For obvious environmental reasons, we are not asking large numbers of people to travel to England. Rather, we encourage you to create your own very personal peace vigil which honors the place you inhabit. Stories and pictures from these simultaneous events on 8.8.08 will be gathered on the Peace Planet Project website. To participate from your corner of the world, see the World Clock for corresponding times in your area. Together we are making a conscious shift in our direction as a planet toward PEACE NOW. Please join us! Create an 8.8.08 PEACE CIRCLE in your home, village, neighborhood, or city.

See the Glastonbury 8.8.08 page for more information, and consider signing up for our mailing list (above) to keep informed of our progress as we count down to this powerful event!
