RE: Is Capitalism Responsible For Environmental Destruction? A short thought exercise!

in #money7 years ago

Exactly! Which is why I'm proposing new systems that reward collaboration, reward the building of natural capital, and reward creating more beauty and diversity of life in our world! (we're inherently intrinsically motivated by these aspects anyway, why not design a system to extrinsically motivate as well!)

However, the problem should be relatively easy to fix! Since a new model would be so vastly superior to the old one in being able to meet our needs, it wouldn't take much convincing to have people join! Even people who are 'successful' in capitalism show deficits in their needs being met. (sometimes even more extreme than those in 'poverty'). So, this is my purpose. To create this system so when I raise a child it will be done within this new system. So, that he will be part of the new paradigm of minds that have never been programmed by our present dominant systems and will seamlessly carry our systems forward! (this needs to happen before we complete our global extinction)
