Wolfminh
grew a little more concerned with the ancient story portraying the
destruction of the original environment of the first planet of
humankind in its long history.
“Do
you think there is a lesson to be learned here Wolfminh?”
“That
left unchecked the human drive to consume is like a virus on a
planet’s people and ecosphere. Something like leprosy progressively
moving across a body until it is consumed?”
“Yes,
something like that Wolfminh. Later humanity realized after
reflection upon its disasters that a philosophical value system, an
axiology, for a realistic economic system needed to regard wealth as
a function of the general well-being of all of the people of the
culture. Rich people may be allowed, yet not so rich as to make the
possession of wealth equal to the possession of political power.
Billionaires in your deck are just a tiny percent of the trillions
and trillions of humans living over the free expanse of the galaxy.
They too realize that the security of all can be no greater than the
security and wealth of the least of humanity. All of humanity are
brought to exist within an effective, constructive range of inventive
and contemplative existence. The extremes of concentrated wealth and
poverty such as the Aristarchs and other imperialists use are absent
from a free human society.”
“Lena
said; “Let me show you a new game Wolfminh, I think you’ll like
it.”
“What
is it?” asked Wolfminh as Lena brought it up in a new window.
“As
you can see from the banner above the Clint Westwood character
dressed as Chief Seattle- it’s called Future
Fracker.
It’s a way of modeling human ecological economic histories on the
geographies of planets historically and discovering the effects of
ecological economic systems on the future of a given world-covering.
In the example world, human beings have crossed the Bering Strait
before the sea level rises and make their way south to Mexico while
some stop to colonize Puget Sound in the future Washington State The
boundaries of the future state of Washington are marked in orange and
the naturally healthy ecosphere is green. Human settlements are red
and industrial activity blue. As human activities infect the green
and spread the newly dead green regions become black.”
“What
happens if they become white? That’s a question better answered way
down the road in the future. White occurring generally means nuclear
wipe out or worse, though rarely it heralds utopia. We aren’t using
white too much in the colors of Future Fract since the problem is
more of civil than war economic consequences of ecology and economic
policy choices.”
Clint
Westwood as Chief Seattle sure looks angry.”
Chief
Seattle was grim. He appeared at the industrial pollution expansion
site as a ground-breaking ceremony and ribbon cutting for the
expansion of the industrial pollution factory with a vast new asphalt
parking lot was about to go ahead. Chief Seattle’s appearance
differed from that of the crowd of sycophants and politicians
gathered around the stage and speaker making the great, pompous
speech about jobs and progress. Thus the speaker looked at Chief
Seattle. Seattle looked back and said; “Do ya feel lucky punk? Go
ahead, cut, make my day”, his hand posed ready to draw a light
saber.
“And
well he should, great actor as he was at 98. The ecosphere of the
state of Washington died at a regular pace as unplanned human sprawl
consumed and devoured ecological health. Instead of concentrating
human population centers and retaining a healthy wilderness with land
set aside for farming, the entire state is consumed by a human
economic equivalent of flesh eating bacteria. Mammal life disappears
from land and even sea as killer whale pods disappear into history.
Salmon streams are converted to drainage ditches and sewers, asphalt
and concrete paths grow all over the state to transport fossil
fuel-farting machines that warm the sky and squash animals under
tire. Enough of the intro game. I want to show you the principles of
quantitative modeling of economic and ecological position initial
start locations, quantitative analysis of the natural resources of a
region and if they are renewable or not, and the way that Immanuel
Kant’s moral categorical imperative should shape the choice of
reproductive ecological economic systems through fractal analysis
too.
Modeling the
reproductive value of an ecological economy relies on the way it may
be conjugated with growth.
Each
ecological economy is a Mandelbrot formula with constants that can
reproduce itself yet nothing more. It can burn up or conserve
resources yet will be nothing else; never progressive.
For
progress the Mandelbrot value need be combined with another fractal
formula and finding two fractal’s that may be combined without
destroying one another isn't easy. Yet the value of being able to
combine two ecological economic systems that allow growth and
techno-social advance is so high that heterosexual marriage of
ecological methods is requisite for anyone with a realistic idea of
mankind’s place in nature and the Universe.”
“Why
don’t single fractal economies work?”
“Wolfminh,
the best explanation might be a simple analogy to waveforms that are
in sync or not. Heterogeneous waveforms could virtually fill up a
geographic region as yin and yang composites comprise a whole and in
our ecological economic system actually create new ecological
economic life. On the other hand, same-fractal waveforms even with
different Mandelbrot values combine destructively without conjugation
or producing anything new. Instead they double power of their
self-same waveform continuing whatever dysfunction ecological
economic pattern of gross, mindless consumerism is present and
annihilating biological life and of course, human freedom.
“You
should try to use the game to create your own fractal worlds and
values conjugating those with other oppositely signed fractals to
generate new ecological economic system values occasionally; not too
many or too often as you will overwhelm carrying capacity of the host
worlds and even theoretically, that of the entire galaxy.
Kant’s
categorical imperative for moral effectiveness informs us that no
rule for self-conduct should be made that could not reasonably be
applied to to everyone as a universal moral law. With that premise in
mind we may consider if our social ecological economic practice if
reproduced at large scale would act positively or destructively
concerning ecospheric health, and then to what extent it need be
modified for use.”
