"PlanetaryCitizens.net's mission is to create, expose and nurture positive change in the world. We hope to give you pertinent information and relevant facts in the process. [[Donald Keys]], speech writer for [[U Thant]] in the 60s, coined the phrase Planetary Citizen on the way to creating The [[New World Alliance]]. The Occupy Movement, a global announcement of disastisfaction in leadership and a call for change, could be seen as a call for planetary citizens. Numerous groups and organizations are adopting the 12-sector model, illustrated here, as a means toward self-organization." <ref>Planetary Citizens [http://www.planetarycitizens.net/default.html Home], organizational web page, accessed April 21, 2012.</ref>
 
In 1970 the UN held a "Conference on Human Survival" which was chaired by [[Lester Pearson]] with funding coming from the [[Kettering Foundation]]. With funds left over from this conference Planetary Citizens was initiated.
