I have a dream about nature ⬛ aka ⬛ The Berlin Manifesto: An actionable plan to save oUr planet from the apocalyptic RIders
By Presumably Greta Thunberg; Stockholm, Sweden
Also by Barely Norman Matrix; Outer Space, Universe
Abstract — Fridays for future has paved the way for a new realization of the treasures our planet holds. There is no doubt left among leaders of relevance that the world is on fire indeed. This manifesto will outline an actionable plan to achieve carbon neutrality within the optimum time frame. We will not stop until this plan or ecological measures with comparable impact are:
I) Put into legislature with a definite time frame that is punishable for violation
II) Subjected to rigid project, asset and organisational management systems that allow transparent progress reporting
III) Properly implemented on a global scale and handed over into an operations and control management system that allows transparent operations reporting
IV) Overseen by an independent body of the United Nations with necessary means to enforce compliance
Welcome to Ecosocialism 2.0.
Abstrakt.
⬛Vision⬛
The world is on fire. Ultimately demanding scale and impact of the climate crisis require the timely implementation of modern means to execute cataclysmic transformations in secure and fast fashion. The Berlin Manifesto is the solution for executive impasse. It will be taken over by the United Nations for governance of a modern format of climate crisis management.
⚫Climate asset assessment⚫
Existing data-driven studies are considered for application to impact risk assessment.
This process segments all carbon emitting and consuming natural and artificial assets into risk groups according to a defined color scheme:
- Green: this asset is climate net-positive or considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies
- Yellow: this asset is climate net-negative and not considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies. Replacing asset technologies seems unfeasible in short time frame.
- Orange: this asset is climate net-negative and not considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies. Replacing asset technologies seems feasible in short time frame.
- Red: this asset is considered climate killing.
All assets are assigned the following indicators:
- Asset capacity: total availability of given resources
- Asset loss: capacity lost over defined time
- Asset gained: capacity gained over defined time
- Asset TTL: time to life of given resources following demand/consumption estimations
⚫Economic impact assessment⚫
Existing data-driven studies are considered for application to economic climate impact risk assessment.
This process segments all business sectors into risk groups according to a defined color scheme:
- Green: this sector is climate net-positive or considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies
- Yellow: this sector is climate net-negative and not considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies. Replacing sector technologies seems unfeasible in short time frame.
- Orange: this sector is climate net-negative and not considered state of art in terms of climate impacting technologies. Replacing sector technologies seems feasible in short time frame.
- Red: this sector is considered economy killing.
All sectors are assigned the following indicators:
- Sector market cap: total market cap of sector
- Sector ecological budget: sum of all ecological impacts converted into monetary value/loss
- Sector budget gained: budget increase over time
- Sector budget loss: budget loss over time
⚫Health impact assessment⚫
Existing data-driven studies are considered for application to health impact risk assessment.
This process segments all carbon emitting and consuming natural and artificial assets into risk groups according to a defined color scheme:
- Green: this asset is considered state of art in terms of health impacting technologies
- Yellow: this asset is not considered state of art in terms of health impacting technologies. Replacing asset technologies seems unfeasible in short time frame.
- Orange: this asset is not considered state of art in terms of health impacting technologies. Replacing resource technologies seems feasible in short time frame.
- Red: this asset is considered people killing.
All assets are assigned the following indicators:
- Healthcare cost: total cost increase in healthcare generated by asset
- Human loss: human life lost over defined period of time due to health issues caused/supported by climate change
- Climate security impact risk assessment
Existing data-driven studies are considered for application to political security impact risk assessment.
This process segments all carbon emitting and consuming natural and artificial assets into risk groups according to a defined color scheme:
- Green: this asset is not impacting security and/or stability of political systems
- Yellow: this asset is impacting security and/or stability of political systems. Replacing asset technologies seems unfeasible in short time frame.
- Orange: this asset is impacting security and/or stability of political systems. Replacing resource technologies seems feasible in short time frame.
- Red: this asset is considered nation killing.
All assets are assigned the following indicators:
- Security cost: total cost increase in military and security generated by asset
- Human loss: human life lost over defined period of time due to political issues caused/supported by climate change
⚫Resource ledger⚫
All resources assets identified in risk assessments are budgeted in a global resource ledger. Via double book keeping all resource producers are aligned with resource consumers. No resource allocation takes place outside of the ledger. This is enforceable.
Resources in the ledger are segmented according to a defined color scheme:
- Green: this resource is available in abundance and not end-of-lifetime
- Yellow: this resource is available with known end of supply, or it has a long-term end-of-lifetime
⚫Resource allocation⚫
Risk assessment outcomes are applied to climate-first resource allocation algorithms to optimize for the following constraints:
- Life→Security→Economy→Climate
- Killer eradication → Low hanging fruits → The rest
Resource allocation is executed in near real-time fashion synchronized with related energy exchanges.
⚫Resource transformation⚫
Resource allocation optimization limitations drive a resource transformation algorithm to optimize for the following transitions in both risk assessments:
- Red→Orange
- Orange→Yellow
- Yellow→Green
Resource transformation is considering the limited availability of natural resources required for transitions.
⚫Resource elimination⚫
All resources in the ledger are subject to consideration for removal in the case of unmanageable risk standing.
⚫Change management⚫
All changes required due to the aforementioned processes being executed are subject to change management methodologies.
This includes change approval, change tracking and end-of-lifetime initiatives spawning subsequent changes.
⚫Quality management⚫
All processes established are subject to quality management standards. This includes:
- Open communications platform
- Open quality auditing processes
Mindful leadership, responsible involvement of key stake holders, and continuous improvement guide the process.
⚫Continuous operations⚫
All processes established within this manifesto are subject to agility, continuous delivery, and continuous operations.
Fast cycle times will ensure the timely report of progress and opportunity for administrative escalation.
Legislative bottlenecks are identified easily and escalated.
⚫Open climate platform⚫
A new open data platform is established to communicate and document the aforementioned processes.
Near real-time processing ensures timely updates of the provided data.
All optimization algorithms are available publicly for review and improvement. All optimization data sets are available publicly for reuse and enrichment.
If necessary, personally identifiable information is made available in secure and compliant fashion.
⚫Open climate democracy⚫
Liquid democratic processes will be established with the help of secure distributed computing mechanisms.
Leadership impact on the climate issue is largely eliminated by efficient digital communications- and voting-platforms and a dedicated legislative climate fast-track into the regional councils.
⚫Policy change⚫
Policy change on a global level is inevitable to avoid the climate apocalypse. See (Policy change).
⚫Artificial intelligence⚫
Our climate scientists demand the best tools for the job at hand. Highly scalable toolkit agnostic machine learning and data science environments are made available to that end.
Compute resource cost is easily managed on a supranational level.
Data silos are liberated to unleash data intelligence for global risk mitigation efforts. Matrix computation is applied to ensure the integrity of data protection compliance.
⚫Energy grids⚫
Autonomous local energy grids will reduce transport loss and improve resilience.
Monte-carlo based reinforcement-learning agents will control the grid operation and market participation. This will guarantee optimal economic and ecological utilization.
Renewable energy forms the basis of this grid architecture. Baseline is provided by hydrogen power or gray legacy sources.
Local energy grids are capable of networked operation. A hierarchical energy graph will replace the current single-point-of-failure ridden design.
⚫Sensible renewables⚫
Renewables are subjected to climate asset risk analysis. This encourages a process that investigates the limited availability of green replacement technology in terms of natural resource depots.
Renewable deployment is guided by resource allocation. This enables a data-driven approach to the utilization resources and avoids mid- to long-term moving targets.
⚫Indirect costs⚫
Averse effects of climate change on political systems and personal health incur indirect costs in the system.
Political system impact is measured in increased security cost necessary to manage increased risk.
Healthcare system impact is measured in increased healthcare cost necessary to manage increased risk.
⚫Education and trust⚫
Educative measures will be implemented that quickly improve the awareness situation about climate change.
Necessary regulative changes in regards to mis-information and social media are undergoing.
Public education is adapted to incorporate climate research at appropriate levels.
Climate related markets and exchanges are opened up to the public. Participation is voluntary, but if taken on enables individuals to take control over their carbon budget and energy production.
⚫Robotics and workforce⚫
Transformative effects of artificial intelligence and robotics on workforce composition align with climate risk mitigation activities.
It is therefore vital to guide policing towards a sustainable, ecologically sound direction. The cost/benefit ratio is considered. Replacing human with robot jobs can yield net positive carbon effect. This data is included in the resource allocation mechanism.
⚫Transportation⚫
Individual transportation will have a clear sunset period. Shared mobility needs to cover all urban areas in open rental systems. Mobility concepts are evaluated for their sustainability as well as operative carbon situation.
Mass transport is publicly funded or co-funded. Free mass transport access provides the necessary leverage to transform drivers into passengers.
Industrial transport and logistics is transformed into hydrogen or electric-powered forms.
Business transportation is subjected to regulative limitations that ensure that one day trip and long-distance volume is reduced according to possible virtual technology replacement.
Vacation travel is budgeted fairly for all citizens. Travel budget is accumulated and can be sold on an open market.
⚫Finance⚫
Aforementioned methods will provide transparency about the direct and proxy costs associated with an asset. This will drive smart and sustainable investment by market education.
Carbon trades are removed because they fail to deliver the suggested benefits. New carbon offset procedures are developed base on relative purchasing power related to the involved technologies. This carbon offset takes place on a global real-time market.
⚫Carbon Adding Tax⚫
Carbon taxing provides an automated regulative incentive towards climate risk mitigations. All goods are taxed according to the risk cost mapping into four tax levels (green, yellow, orange, red). This tax is derivative for all produce. Products created via unsafe assets will inherit the parent risk costs.
Through process of accumulation at each stage of production, distribution and sale the ecological impact is materialized this way. This tax is harmonized with VAT and/or commercial tax if applicable.
⚫Circular economy⚫
Circular economy will be enforced via regulation for all sectors. International standard bodies will provide clear guidelines with easily applicable processes for the different sector commerce patterns.
Technology necessary to securely track and trace product supply chain and life cycle is standardised by a non-profit business communications standards body. It is included in all produce via analogue and/or digital means. Product CAT and economy life cycle age are easily identified on an individual level.
⚫Limits of Democracy⚫
⚫Peace keeping⚫
⚫De-growth⚫
⚫Matrix⚫
⚫Summary and Outlook⚫
this is not a list of suggestions
this is a list of essential change necessary to survive
this is the lowest bar we will settle for
Finally, we do encourage discussion.
