Reversing the Three Meltdowns

Reversing the Three Meltdowns will be the hardest tasks ever undertaken by humanity.

The first meltdown - the ecological meltdown - concerns the switch from fossil fuels to renewables, and the transition to a sustainable economy.

It's already theoretically possible to make the switch.

And the switch will need jobs creating - lots of them!

The second meltdown - the financial meltdown - could also be resolved by rational policy decisions: the end of fractional reserve/fiat currency banking.

The third meltdown - the social meltdown - is the one that prevents the previous two being being sorted. [TFYBD]

The current global economy is based on Gordon Gekko's emblematic speech from the film Wall Street.

A switch to an eco-friendly sustainable economy might provide for everyone's need, but it manifestly will not provide for everyone's greed.
