GLOBAL AFFAIRS - PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
Basic fact; Earth's -life supporting- resources are finite, not infinite
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.
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.
Continuing the direction mankind is heading now, will cause, despite implementing amendments other than fundamental system change, total or near-total collapse of nature, that is to say earth's "life-support systems", and life itself. This means; mass extinction of all higher evolved lifeforms, Homo Sapiens included.
Soon. Within 150 years from now. Perhaps even within 75 years from now, also depending on definitions and meaning of collapse within the context of this subject
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

Respyre -special endorsement-
TU Delft University (Netherlands) spin-off focusing on the valorisation of a scientific cross-over between material science and biology.
We believe a living city is a healthy city.
By creating space for nature -in an otherwise barren environment- and integrating self-sustaining vegetation in an efficient, sustainable and functional way, we want to bring cities to life.
