Holidays provide a fantastic way of channeling peoples’ attention and energy.

Most of our holidays are focused on past events or individuals, or on the rhythms of nature. History and nature are wonderful and should be honored — but the amazing future we are building together should be honored as well.

Future Day is a way of focusing and celebrating the energy that more and more people around the world are directing toward creating a radically better future.

This is a brand new holiday — the first Future Day will be March 1, 2012. Let us all work together to get Future Day off to an incredible start.

How should Future Day be celebrated? That is for us to decide, as the future unfolds!

• We would like to see Future Day adopted as an official holiday by governments on all levels around the world.
• We would like to see children do Future Day projects at school, exploring their ideas and passions about creating a better future.
• Future Day costume parties — why not? It makes at least as much sense as dressing up like witches and goblins!
• Businesses giving employees a day off from routine concerns, to think creatively about future projects
• Special Future Day issues of newspapers, magazines and websites
• Use your imagination — that’s what the future is all about!
