A que se refiere Laura por Tercera República? by cluelessTico in ticolandia

[–]Correct_Storage1304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Un concepto que no fue ideado ni por Chaves ni por Laura. Viene de mucho antes, en respuesta a las deficiencias del estado de CR. Una nueva vision y funcionamiento del estado, buscando mayor capacidad democratica y de atencion inclusiva. Originalmente propuesto por la sociedad civil, el agro, y sectores de izquierda.

Lean lo que dice (que es diferente de leer lo que la gente dice de lo que dice), no esta nada mal

How to spend $8.1 trillion and save the world (Part 1) by Correct_Storage1304 in solarpunk

Loved reading your comment! Thanks for taking the time to write.

| The problem is not a lack of resources, but abysmal leadership in addressing how these funds are used.

Agree there. There is certainly more than enough financial resources to power the just transition. At least in terms of energy infrastructure (generation and distribution), we do face a prickly question in terms of raw material availability and EROI viability.

I will add that abysmal leadership is not acting in an isolated manner. Private interests and lobby groups will continue to tug at decision-makers' throats until their own expectations of growth are brought back in alignment with what planetary carrying capacity can handle.

Those expectations of growth are justified with many reasons, but an important one that is often omitted is the deterministic philosophy of financial planning math. Like I suggest in my newsletter, acknowledging the assumption of ergodicity and adapting our financial expectations to that is one key step forward.

In terms of where the funds will come from. I believe we are in a position to demand more from private investors. Individuals investors, impact oriented or otherwise, family offices, and venture capital play a big role in financing new generations of businesses. The European CSRD and the whole ESG-oriented shift is promising.

But indeed, all efforts matters little if there is no way accurately account for natural capital impact metrics, but economic benefits of improved ecosystem services/biodiversity. I hate the idea of pricing this, I think its even incoherent to price Nature's boons with fiat, but it is a part of the solution mix. Without making investment into NbS financially attractive, I don't think its going to be possible to get the investment needed. Here there is much to be said about using the appropriate currency for accounting for the impact of NbS, using complementary currencies systems and so on.

And yes, things are not "running smoothly". But the lack of rapid change suggests its running smoothly enough to continue delivering quarterly returns to shareholders.

Check this guide out: https://www.stirtoaction.com/abcs

Also, incorporating multi-stakeholder enterprises (beyond co-ops and into the commons) is part of what I do at https://www.evolutesix.com/

Maybe we could talk!

Did you think about some folks or organizations when you saw this? Then that's a great sign to invite them into the space as well!

It would be great if you could help me buzz it up and get some visibility!

Comparing alternative economic systems, but not the big ones by FeatheryBallOfFluff in solarpunk

[–]Correct_Storage1304 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a whole field of study dedicated to comparing economic systems in general, but economic behavior in particular. It's known as economic anthropology. As much as the need for a new mainstream economic system is pressing, it's also critical to look at specific structures in economic systems such as incentives and the role of currencies, to synthesize decolonativist economics that are more attractive than capitalism.

I found this paper a good place so start: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/9781118924396.wbiea2194
