Why a diverse ecosystem of money can do us good

A Short intensive message from the Caribbean Blog Authority to the Caribbean Region.

Community coins appear all over the world. From the Bangla Pesa in Kenyan slums to the London Brixton Pound: alternative currencies make a different economy possible, in which groups of people can give value to things that are today considered economically worthless, or with which local economies can become more resilient. How does the phenomenon work?

It is absurd for our money system to work with monoculture, while we know from biology that if there is something wrong with that one culture that you are planting in your field, you have a huge problem. We also saw that during the financial crisis of ten years ago. "
In nature there is almost no waste, everything is reused. Just as we can use the natural cycle for our own gain, we must also be able to come sooner or later to a diverse ecosystem of money that can do us all good in, among other things, the Caribbean.

For deep consideration I wish to quote the following:
People who are concerned about sustainability - with issues such as climate change, environmental degradation, food and water shortages, population growth and energy consumption - are inclined not to worry too much about the money system. They are also not looking for solutions in monetary innovations. Even economists who are also concerned about sustainability are rarely aware that our money system systematically encourages unsustainable patterns of behavior that eventually threaten the survival of people on this planet.

Is money monoculture or a large pyramid scheme that increases inequality in the world.

There is hope:
 The good news is that the information and communication revolution that we are experiencing today is pushing us in the right direction.
The Caribbean Region is facing major challenges.

If you don’t agree with me, I respect that, but this is just my personal opinion.Thanks for reading anyway.Triggers are smoke signals which tells you there is fire somewhere….

LET US TALK ABOUT CONNECTION

In my daily life I meet a lot of different people from around the globe. I meet them both online and offline (in real). So you can imagine how many information I am getting on different subjects. But in this blog article I will stick my pen on talking about CONNECTION in the era of the Digital Revolution.

Technology yields a paradox. On the one hand, we are becoming more autonomous in our lives thanks to innovations and we create our own kingdoms in which we feel safe and feel stronger. For example, look at our online empowerment to address companies for injustice or inconvenience. Airlines are fighting against this with complete ‘smart help desks’ that monitor all comments on social media in order to satisfy customers. Or think of youthful smartphone users who shut themselves off for hours a day by staring obsessively at a screen, but at the same time chatting with a friend on the other side of the world. And what about our individual mobility that has increased in recent decades, that distance seems to be only a minor obstacle;

These are, at first glance, moderately positive developments. Where the other side of the paradox brings more optimism, in the increasing connection that the same technique enables us. In the medical world, surgeons help each other to operate remotely, with or without the help of a robot for precision work. Lawyers can unwind their routine jobs with new software in no time and thus have more time to show empathy for the client. Communication technology brings people, who used to barely have contact, now with word and image together, while language barriers are dismantled by an online translation application.

This theme is about the new connections that the modern digital world brings us, without wanting to write off the analog world. On the contrary, retro is even hip. And no matter how beautiful the technological developments may be, an arm of a robot around your shoulder feels – for the time being – different than a warm, analogue hug.

Finally I like to share the following with you my dear audience from around the world:

Communication is not about sending and receiving but about understanding and connecting.

ELEMENTS O F A G R E A T S T R A T E G Y FOR ANYONE

I have been giving the theme of business procedure a lot of thought recently and needed to share a couple of key thoughts that have ascended to the best. Likely you definitely know these things, yet I thought putting them down in one succinct note may be of esteem.

Toward the day’s end, it is basic to remember that all procedure and vital arranging depends on… speculating. There is no real way to know the future, yet key arranging still assumes an imperative part fit as a fiddle the future and settle on the kind of choices that will enable you to move towards your coveted results. It’s a figure about the future, yet it’s a figure that causes you make what’s to come.
