There are 4 future history endings to the 21st C. As my daughter is 9 year old: I find the
first three of these compound futures utterly unacceptable and invite you to mail me at
info@worldcitizen.tv if you do too:
Dinosaur: means the whole human species
will be as dead as the dodo. Tell us who's "death of birth" story interests you most. I'm a fan of Chairman Ray Anderson, and this video. In it, he explains not only how all corporations -as key systems in productive and demanding networks of human relationships
- can help humanity prevent the "dinosaur ending" but also how those corporations who value human life will
compound the most profits too. It's a myth that sustainability business investments don't do well by doing good. But what
is required is consistent investment through time as all entreprenurial and economic systems are intended be, not exercises in how much can you reap or rape from the world every last quarter. All the true economists
have mapped how healthy societies beget strong economies, NOT vice versa.
Shark:
means that there will be a world of less than a billion people, most enslaved to the greediest and nastiest men. It is not
for nothing that the Spectre villains in James Bond films kept pet sharks. Sharks sense how to make a human or financial killing
at many miles - they literally are the best at smelling blood as well as having blood-thirsty greeds. I am by no
means claiming that most large organisational boardrooms are populated by sharks. But as a mathematician and investigator of Unseen Wealth research I am weary of hearing over 20 years of protests that we are ignorant of the system
law : if leadership only optimises how much money speculators take out from the last quarter's spreadsheet, the
organisation's purpose will be full of holes than a pantomime dame's leaking bucket. Worse over time what
you exclude from governing a system is what you compound the destruction of. That's why any boardroom who does not want to
see its business case transparently audited for sustainability henceforth swims with the sharks or is blinded by butterflies.
Butterflies tell the wrong stories about system or network models of how to map the
whole before getting boxed into parts. Butterflies making system patterns sound complex or chaotic beyond human
wit. Inconveniently, this gives the manager the perfect excuse to say that sytsem transformation cannot be succesful. Their
end consequence is also likely to end with less than a million beings living, but this time survivors wll all be back
in the cave age. As the world gets more interconnected, what we need to map is exactly how do get interconnected
in each other's most vital compound risks or joys. We do need to prevent the next HIV from spreading virally beyond
early cases especially if it is transmitted by contagious birds. Grassroots in frastructures needed little more
than a primitive mobile telephone network around Tsunami coastlines to prevent deaths of thos who were 5 hours away from the
wave even if those nearest the wave's origin could not have ben alerted. We need to reduce online degrees of separation to
zero when the information to be passed through us humans is life critical in its flows. Conversely, there are many types of
active learning that multiply value in use instead of gettin g consumed up the way in dustrial things always were. The two
great untruths told by the butterfly brigade:
1) that there is one primary way
of thinking or doing systems- by definition systemic approaches interface and integrate around molecular subsystems;
one simple consequence of this organsiationally is a lot more interdisciplinary flows are needed for the service economy organsiational system to wholly empower trust and other entrepreneurial energies
2) that
my life -or yours - will be impacted on the other side of the world by a butterfly flapping its wing. This ludicrous insult
to logic should not however lead anyone to believe that we can lose all the world's rainforests and expect climate equilibrium
to be sustained.
Lion-Child - and I would delight in hearing of other identifications, since this
is the truly important story of the four and merits every type of cross-cultural rendering you all can imagine - is about the collaboration characters we will need to flourish if 6+
billion humans are to thrive. Quite a simple thing to achieve if we are as truly curious as a child, as courageous as a lioness
in protecting her young, and cherish the pride in community wellbeing as much as lions do.
Ideas for 24 Goals for the 24 Days PowWow on will humanity invest in Sustainability
in Time
I gather that some
goals gave already been decided. Numbers do not denote order:
Activity Goals
G1 Plant 24 intercity hubs around the world using Islington hub
and espian plex tools as strawman infrastructure for local adaptation
G2 Demand that London's Mayor etc open up sufficient spaces in public building for 90 day summer debate of sustainability issues
G3 Develop a map of all hubs and learning houses - ie to include
the 24 homegrown ones, and others out there eg Brazil has at least two www.catcomm.org
G4 Get the 24 hubs to start editing their own crisis
learning travel guide that Sofia is producing 2007 version of which incidentally will include a start up map of hubs; other
contents in this include Harrison Owen Open Space for children; Gandhi family debriefings from the world's largest school
and 1 million oneworld alumni; challenges of starting up CIDA's free university
G5 How can we go beyond the learning guide to a meeting format trialled by London and for replication in any city Learning500
(see mail of sat feb 3 addendum Sunita Gandhi)
G6 invite 24 days participants to nominate 15 entries of book of the 200 most trusted collaboration
entrepreneurs of 2008 , with particular foci on the 7 sustainability crises which become irreversible if they're not turning
round by 2012 see pic attached
G7 The top 4 outcome crises in the picture are a direct match
with Larry Brilliant’s 4 main goals for progressing the work of google.org - how do we establish b ridges with
that - he states these goals at this video minute 14 http://webcast.ucsd.edu:8080/ramgen/UCSD_TV/11645.rm
G8 How do we mobilise all new economists and sustainability investors around
the empowerment development economics revolution Sir Nick Stern is leading which from May will be out of the London School
of Economics- what London student networks already exist to interact positively with Sir Nick; how can we unite
oxbridge and Indian alumni too (since eg Sir Nick's curricula is parallel to that Manmohan Singh has been pioneering since
his Cambridge days in the 1950s and blends with the Entrepreneurial Revolution trilogy of my father). How do we ensure
that the debate on how to spend 1% of economies to save 20% does not get greenwashed by all the old vested interests; the
worst scenario being that the 1% is wholly wasted while an image of saving the climate lulls us into false security
G9 How could we outline the definitive entrepreneurial, peace network (open systems , biomass) curricula
that all new age universities and serve the world alumni need (eg blend this with the Sir Richard Branson entrepreneur school
at Cida, the India alumni of city Montessori etc)
G10 How do we popularise the 4 end states of sustainability - eg Dinosaur (death of birth), Shark (1 million enslaved
by a few James Bond Spectre Villains), Butterfly probably 1 million cavemen through telling system stories
the wrong way (I'll never be impacted by a butterfly's wing but could from nuclear wave or terror wave or birdflu or Greenland
unhinging) , LionChild (or whatever is your identity) of 6+ billion people collaborating around a higher order system of sustainability
which fairly integrates every locality into globalisation. How do we own the vocabulary so that these 4 identities become
part of worldwide chat.
G11 How do we identify journalist for humanity who care about at
least one of the 7 above crises as reaching irreversibility by 2012 if we don’t fix them now
G12 How do we start developing supporters clubs around collaboration entrepreneurs connecting eg all
the best ideas that Yunus is using - thegreenchildren.org - a British pop-spokesgroup for Grameen; the microcreditsummit as
one of the top 10 world citizen meeting formats; the extension of microcredit as the perfect concept to clean up the banking
market into other concepts designed to partner trillion dollar global markets until they stop externalising destruction of
each market's deepest human purpose (see trillion dollar audit game - left an early copy with you, otherwise it will
emerge at http://worldcitizen.tv and is backed up by the earlier book Alan was writing with me)
