The origin of our dilemma is the dated assumption that it is human effort and not nature that makes our basic commodities. This error was monetized during in the industrial age when economics was defined as the social science that dealt with the production, distribution and consumption of manufactured wealth, and with its related problems of labor, taxation and finance. Today we know ecosystems make our basic commodities and economics is in fact the natural science that deals with the production, distribution and recycling of ecoproduct wealth. The conflict between our medium of exchange and nature can be resolved by replacing different private bank notes that mortgage the private value of manufactured wealth with ecocredit that stores the public value of ecoproduct wealth. Welcome to the Global Resource Bank The GRB is a direct democratic institution You own a share in the Bank as your birthright e is the GRB ecocredit sign, as e1,000,000,000,000 equals one trillion ecocredits The creation of GRB ecocredit is subject to ecoproduction outside national jurisdiction. Ecocredit is backed by the goods and services produced, distributed and recycled by ecosystems owned by the shareholders. It stores the life-supporting value of light, heat, hydro, wind and biochemical energy, ozone, carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, genetic and biological diversity, and the proteins, sugars, starches, minerals and water produced in the global commons. The electronic issue of ecocredit is divided equally among shareholder accounts to utilize as a global medium of exchange that simplifies trade. = Shareholder Income The GRB earns income from an account service charge. To stop pollution the amount is related to the size of the account's ecofootprint. To end poverty the Bank divides most of its income equally among its shareholders. The Bank's shareholders earn their income by investing in ecoproduction. These investments increase the Bank's reserve of ecocredit and Earth's capacity to support life. Shareholder Communication Telecommunications makes vital information available to everyone. However, cost is a restriction. Therefore, the Bank pays for global telecommunications. Exchange Capital To simplify the conversion from bank notes to ecocredit the GRB exchanges ecocredit for central bank notes and ecoproduction inside national jurisdiction. shareholder shareholder shareholder shareholder shareholder Greenspan This exchange makes shareholder Greenspan smile because it capitalizes the financial services industry with ecocredit and gives it open market access to more than six billion prosperous customers. Start Up On opening day the shareholders agree to value the Bank's gross ecoproduct wealth at 6,000 trillion ecocredits. Half of these are issued to the communication, capital exchange and six billion shareholder accounts. The balance is reserved to capitalize the increasing population.
