in RE: consistent #bullying of me: "#whatabout "Palestine & others"; vs. Ukraine?
Resources wars + over-extraction/exploitation/consumption (colonial capitalism) --> X170 climate change (a ‘threat & opportunity multiplier’) --> Regenerative economy / Net-positive for All
- Competition for #resources = most of the armed/increased conflicts, incl civic & trade wars + corruption;
- Humans causing #climatechange 170 times faster than natural forces with 100 companiesthe are source of 71% of GHGs;
- Intensifying climate change influenced 3% - 20% wars in last 100 yrs
- Today 2bn peare ople currently in war-affected areas.
- 2007, Sudan’s Darfur: the world’s?first climate change conflict (Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary-General)
- 2009, Iraq: "What I can tell you is that if I had managed to persuade the government of America that investing – instead of going into Iraq – in decarbonising their economy with roughly a tenth of [the estimated $3 trillion the US spent on the war], they would have managed it." (c) via scientific research.
- 2022, Ukraine: energy/gas, food/grains, minerals, water, land, a global geostrategic hub for trade & defence.
- Reduction of overconsumption, over-extraction (5:1 in some cases !!!) and waste via circular/regen policies & business models
- Reimagine value from a holistic perspective (macro+microeconomics) to capture it at every stage of a process
- Build impact partnership networks to accelerate inclusion and just transition (localising goals in line with the Planetary system, not P&L or expected ROI just)
- Incorporate fair wealth distribution (stakeholders vs shareholders) via shared value models at all levels: public, private etc.
- Channel investments into real impact projects (tools available), verified performance-outcomes-based
- Dynamic accountability / collective responsibility
- Rethink & rebalance resources, products and services consumption (travel, waste, energy, food, entertain "clients" - it's not a showoff) and leagcy you leave after you.
- Update your lifestyle to a TOTAL net-positive vs ego-driven "bigger, shinier, larger".
- Adapt orphans - there are no "theirs/ours". We are all one (i.e. A.Jolie & others advocating by actions)
- Support & empower others (IQ without EQ = cruelty) at any level you can (i.e. a teacher in Georgia raised $700k for Ukraine in weeks!) Think big, start anyhow, unite efforts (whatever definition it is: portfolio effect, multiplier effect or simply cooperation etc.
- We MIGHT NOT extinct, Earth WON'T look like Swiss cheese (just see images from air of extractives + wars / bombings)
- Minimum $12.5tn/ year sustainable revenue opportunities (WEF)
- Global cooperation in reaching NDCs can lower 60% costs ($106 bn) in 2030 & much more
- Catalyse Fairness & Equality, eradicate poverty (between 1990 & 2015, extreme poverty?declined?from close to 40% of the global population to 10%)
p.s. "The key lesson from the 2008 financial crisis was that coordination stemmed not from?selflessness?among parties, but precisely because it was in the interest of each party to work together." (c)
