How economics forms consciousness and vice versa Gold and fossil fuels are units of scarcity Reflecting and creating scarcity consciousness,narrow self interest Alternative and renewable sources of energy are units of abundance Reflecting and creating abundance consciousness, whole-system awareness
Currency backing toward abundance consciousness Moving away from fiat currencies, the gold standard, and even fossil fuels = Moving toward a sustainable and renewable energy-backed currency = • moving away from fear and scarcity consciousness moving toward an abundance consciousness Energy, like consciousness, is infinite
REDEFINING PROFIT A proposed solution to corporate irresponsibility and the degradation of the human environment
Corporations have many things in common with living systems • They operate at a profit in order to survive. • They consume and compete for resources. • They transform resources, thus adding value.
Unlike living systems, capitalism and industrialism tend to be ecologically negative.
How do we fix the system? By redefining profitability
How do we fix the system? By redefining profitability …and moving from narrow self interest to enlightened self interest
Profit is defined by double entry bookkeepingIncome – expense = PROFIT
THIS IS NOT A REAL PROFIT! • Only from the limited perspective of the economic system • Not based in global ecological reality • Subsidized by humanity and the commonwealth
How do we change the way corporations define a profit? • By monetizing whole-system contribution and whole-system consumption
How do we change the way corporations define a profit? • By monetizing whole-system contribution and whole-system consumption • … and moving from double to quadruple entry bookkeeping, adding a column to each side
Taxation and rewards to influence corporate decision-making • System negative Taxed for real costs to the system • System neutral No adjustment • System positive Rewarded for contributions to the system
Profitability redefined! • Taking the whole humansphere and global ecology into account
Redefining profit shifts corporate motivation toward the goals of Natural Capitalism in a way that Triple Bottom Line does not Triple Bottom Line Accounting Quadruple Entry Bookkeeping Aligns the interest of the corporation with the interests of the whole system Introduces a conflict of interest into corporate motivation
With profitability redefined… Human nature and the drive to corporate profitability are both redirected to favor the larger global system.
With profitability redefined,the economic advantage shifts to…
A global problem requires a global solution • A multilevel governing system • Local and national autonomous jurisdictions • A federation at the planetary level for global issues
“The Nazis killed the God in themselves.” ---Elie Wiesel The present economic system kills the God in us all.

By redefining profit, we change the system and shift consciousness at all levels towardEnlightened Self Interest …the realization that our individual survival is dependent on the survival and stability of the planet
