or if you like, the moral slave labour pool.

So anyway, these are dominant memes. So memes that create wasteful exploitative corporations will have reached their limit. So the meme complexes based on forming profitable sustainable companies will win out. Then they will replicate themselves and mutate in different ways.

It will be like a bunch of genes being removed from the gene pool because they couldn’t keep up. Only its memes. Change of the guard.

Almost like forest succession.

But it will still be corporate, because that is what works and that is what people want.

Even if food distribution becomes all decentralized and egalitarian and rhizome like, people will still consume other things that they will buy from corporations. Media and Entertainment will be huge still. The internet is actually a good use of electricity.

Capitalism is about, when you have your competitor by the throat, the next thing you do is pull the trigger and blow their head off.

Thats what I see hapening a lot of companies being weeded out and the ones that know how to adapt dominating and the memes that made them successful mutiplying.

certainly many corporations have re-badged them selves green without changing thier fuction one iota.

garbage and waste management companies are all called something heroically environmental now, and everyone is trying to fit the eco prefix into thier name whether they make weapon systems or sell insurance.

meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

You and Tim have both had symbiotic relationships with dogs.

BTW you can have this type of relationship with dogs in a city but it is different. I grew up in a bad neighborhood and the dogs understood that and communicated with us very clearly on security issues. Now that so much of the city has gentrified you see dogs behaving as social markers for their owners and having a role to play in helping people mix and mingle with others. This must be weird for the dogs. People who’s dogs don’t play by these rules have to scoot their dogs away from the rest thereby excluding themselves from a newly formed social group.

I think dogs like people. I think in whatever capacity they can, probably other domsticated plants like people. Not so much in factory farms, probably, but still I think plants and animals like people.

I would like to see more humans and plants and aniomals living in direct symbioticrelationships. I would like to see more of a blending between nature and humanity. Not seperate but equal, but integrated.

Its actually a fallacy anyhow.

But besides that, here is my train of thought, humanity already makes these huge, sprawling, often ugly cities all over the place. Why not make them green and sustainable?

Like we are being futuristic and going around terfaforming dead planets? Almost like that. Make life flourish with abundance where ever you go. Johnny Appleseed and that kind of thing.

But as far as sustainable, I am interested in sustainability, but that is not to say natural life can;t be increased just because it was formerly a blighted landscape doesn’t mean restoring it to how gren it was a thousand years ago is “unnatural”

Here is an article I just wrote:

Build a Green Market State from Scratch

So thats what I think is happening. This perfect storm will provide amazing opportunities for people prepared.

I guess I look at it not so much in terms of “green collar workers” but in terms of “Green Corporations” forming “Green Market States”

But that is who will employ all these Green collar workers. What I think it will look like is multinational corporations running everything, but running things better and better socially and ecologically. Better than governments have. And I see the public having stock in these corporations.

I think bankrupt governments will play a big part in the Green future. It will get government out of the way of business. When there is no taxes or Government regulations you get massive investment. Look at Dubai. Huge skyscrapers blooming in the desert, massive massive wealth creation.

I imagine cities like Dubai only green. Actally even though Dubai has a huge carbon footprint, one of the largest green skyscrapers is in the works there.
