the planetarian mindset

The main thing about planetarianism is that it should be a mindset that one takes with one throughout daily life.  One should wake up thinking about this little orb hurtling through space at 67,000 miles per hour and go to bed thinking about it.  During the day there should be countless reminders of it-- billboards, subway placards, photos in schools and offices.  The fact that we're all sitting on this little planet in the vast emptiness of the cosmos should never be far from our conscious minds.  Such a mindset could not help but have major political, social, and cultural ramifications.
