YouTube Tracker Rules
- YouTube Tracker: Promote Community
Videos should promote community building and living.
- YouTube Tracker: No RBE
Videos must not contain RBE in the name.
- YouTube Tracker: Positive Content
Content should be positive in nature and promote equality. Ex. Pro-peace instead of anti-war. The issues we address on this site are reframed so that, instead of fighting against something, contributors are asked to describe what they are "fighting" for, and to create a vision of the community they want to bring into existence
- YouTube Tracker: Comments Section
The YouTube Tracker Comments page is only for videos where you left a comment about The Transition and are looking for upvotes.

"My friends, may all illusion drop away and help us realize that all life is connected and that we are one with the Earth and one with each other. May we keep our efforts local and grounded. May we promote diversity as if it were the very substrate of the life force. May we never forget to turn to the goodness of nature to heal body, mind and spirit. "

"I'm convinced of this: Good done anywhere is good done everywhere. For a change, start by speaking to people rather than walking by them like they're stones that don't matter. As long as you're breathing, it's never too late to do some good."~ Maya Angelou
