Global Affairs – Problems and Solutions

Basic fact: Earth's life-supporting resources are finite, not infinite.

Global Affairs

GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE,


INCREASINGLY EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS WORLDWIDE, OUT OF CONTROL MASSIVE FOREST- AND WILDFIRES IN ALL REGIONS, PRODUCING VAST AMOUNTS OF CO2 EMISSIONS.
LARGE SCALE THAWING OF PERMAFROST WHICH EMITS ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF BOTH METHANE AND CO2.
60% DECLINE OF ALL WILDLIFE SINCE 1970, PANDEMIC DISEASE, ALTERATION OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE OCEAN'S AND ALL OTHER NATURAL FEATURES OF PLANET EARTH


--- MANKIND IS RUNNING OUT OF TIME ---


The biggest problems right now;

  • Global Climate Change
  • Misinformation, Disinformation and Pseudoscience (last three proudly hosted by hyper-capitalism and various types of dictatorship)
     
  • Worldwide still far too much inequality between humans in general
  • Worldwide still mass inequality regarding civic and social position of woman and girls
     
  • Warfare


RIGHT NOW WE MUST CHALLENGE AND FUNDAMENTALLY AMEND THE ECONOMIC SYSTEMS BEING USED TODAY, WHICH ARE ALL BASED ON ENDLESS INFLATING "ECONOMIC GROWTH", THE LATTER BASED ON UNLIMITED ROGUE ROBBERY OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ON ROGUE ROBBERY OF BILLIONS OF "NON-1%" PEOPLE

Capitalism, Marxism and variations of those two are not fit to assure a secure future for mankind and all other lifeforms, mostly because of above stated, very basic flaws, regarding economic growth; and because of the existence of politics, often too much guided by power, instead of decision making based on falsifiable facts.

But the good news is, there exist a proposal containing blueprints and roadmaps towards a Global Society, based on intelligent and mindful deployment of logic and love.
This is called Resource Based Economy or Resource Based Society


Critics might say, "Resource Based Economy is an Utopian system and can never be deployed".
Let me respond like this; based on scientific findings regarding the current and near future state of this planet, mankind has no choice other than at least try a very different system. As soon as possible

WAR; MANKIND'S EXISTING POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC SYSTEMS DO ACCOMMODATE RECURRING DEVASTATING AND INCREDIBLE WASTEFUL WARS.
SO, JUST CONDEMNING WAR AND AFTERWARDS PROVIDING HUMANITARIAN AID IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH; INSTEAD WE NEED TO THINK AND ACT IN TOTALLY DIFFERENT MANNERS.
ONLY SPECIFIC TYPES OF FUNDAMENTAL SYSTEM CHANGE MIGHT BE ABLE TO HALT THE SEEMINGLY NEVER ENDING SHORT, MID AND LONG TERM CYCLES OF VIOLENCE.
- WE NEED TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT, THAT PRETTY LARGE CHUNKS OF OUR CURRENTLY EXISTING ECONOMIES, INCLUDING THE MINING OF BASIC COMMODITIES AND THE DISTRIBUTION AND USAGE OF THOSE COMMODITIES, ARE BASED ON FACILITATING WAR -

Below stated you will find a variety of information regarding
RESOURCE BASED ECONOMY or RESOURCE BASED SOCIETY,
which is able to guide and push mankind towards a logic and love driven, non-profit based, sustainable global society

But at first, what is Pseudoscience?
