Introduction to the Earth Dollar

The Earth Dollar Changes Everything!

System Change, not Climate Change” has been a rallying cry catalyzing all types of social movements around the world. Climate Change is just one of the symptoms of the cancer that is destroying our planet; nothing will ever change until that cancer is eradicated.

The root of the cancer for climate change is also the primary cause of poverty, pollution, war, the extinction of species, scarcity, and hyper-competition. The cancer that we are talking about is “Our Current Economic System”, which is based on the unlimited growth of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the accounting system that is supporting this madness called General Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The more our economy grows, the more the environment becomes degraded. This system now only benefits 1% of the population, leaving 99% of the people in the dust.

We will need 2 Earths by the year 2030. “Humanity Has Overshot The Earth’s Biocapacity. Humans are ‘using one and a half planets’ worth of resources and will need two Earths by 2030. The world’s people are now living lifestyles which would require one and a half planets to sustain, though there are significant differences between rich and poor nations.

In 2008, the Earth’s total biocapacity was 12.0 billion gha, or 1.8 gha per person, while humanity’s Ecological Footprint was 18.2 billion gha, or 2.7 gha per person. This discrepancy means it would take 1.5 years for the Earth to fully regenerate the renewable resources that people used in one year, or in other words, we used the equivalent of 1.5 Earths to support our consumption.

Just as it is possible to withdraw money from a bank account more quickly than the interest that accrues, biocapacity can be reused more quickly than it regenerates. Eventually the resources – our natural capital, will be depleted just like running down reserves in a bank account. At present, people are often able to shift their sourcing when faced with local resource limitations. However, if consumption continues to increase as it has in the past decades, the planet as a whole will eventually run out of resources. Some ecosystems will collapse and cease to be productive even before the resource is fully depleted.” (Source: Report: Humanity Has Overshot The Earth’s Biocapacity, BY JEFF SPROSS DEC 15, 2012)

GDP is based on false assumption of unlimited economic growth, but this is theoretically impossible on a finite planet.

With the introduction of the Earth Dollar, we will run a parallel decentralized “Living Economic System” based on the preservation of life of our planet. Our H.O.M.E. (Heal Our Mother Earth) will become the new economy that we envision. In the Living Economic System, wealth is generated by taking care of Mother Earth.


THE EARTH DOLLAR

The Earth Dollar is made up of 3 major components: (a) Fuel: The “Earth Dollar” as the fuel for social change; (b) Economic Engine: The “Living Economic System” is the economic engine for massive social change, which revitalizing Mother Earth and Global Economies; it is also connected to the World Heritage Sanctuaries, and c) Synergy Platform: “Synergy” is a decentralized blockchain technology that can provide the following services: payment processing, paying rewards, running Smart Contracts, running Computer Applications, calculating Ecological Footprint, monetizing Assets, and Medical Research.

(a) Fuel: The Earth Dollar is an asset backed complementary currency, that is decentralized, non-inflationary, and uses blockchain technology. While the Earth Dollar is independent of any political affiliations, borders or nation-states, the Earth Dollar is also the national currency of some indigenous nations, and the legal complementary currency of some local governments.

The publicized $4 trillion in estimated assets have been pledged on the blockchain to back the Earth Dollar; these assessments will be autonomously verified and is expected to be completed by the Fall of 2016, by applying the Natural Capital Accounting System (NCA).

Click the links below to see the type of backing and details of the pledge from the various Indigenous Nations and property owners:

Anishnabe Nation of the Ottawa River Watershed (completed)
Ghana (2 government territories) (completed)
Aiken Lake Nation (completed)
Tsek’ehne Nation (pending)

The Fall 2016 report for asset evaluation will include as follows: (Land cover map and geospatial database by land cover classification of all lands, natural resources, ecosystem services, and areas of significance for traditional use; Carbon budget and GHG emissions assessment and map; Marketable Natural Resource Asset valuation, highest and best-use analysis of natural capital; Ecosystem services valuations for 18 ecosystem services; Traditional Land Use Mapping and Valuation; Human Industrial Footprint and Industrial Disturbance analysis and loss to traditional values: Estimated economic/cultural (TLU)/ecological costs of damages incurred from human/industrial impact; Completion of a Natural Capital Asset Balance Sheet and Valuations for the Earth Dollar to inform strategic decision making)
(b) Economic Engine: The Earth Dollar is designed to Heal Our Mother Earth (H.O.M.E.), by running a parallel economic system based on the wellness of Mother Earth. The Earth Dollar also mitigate the effects of climate change, helps to further the goal of ending global poverty, can revitalize our global economies and able to resolve some of the world’s biggest problems. The Earth Dollar works in alongside national currencies, and complementary currencies.

The world is getting more interconnected, and global problems such as climate change, pollution, collapsing economies, poverty, and war require global collaborative solutions. The world already has many solutions, but “there isn’t enough money” to implement them. While the world spends about over $1.7 trillion annually on war, it “does not have” $30 billion per year to feed the millions of people dying from hunger every year. We could convert all our homes to solar power, but “it is too expensive”. There is “not enough funding” to reverse climate change… “not enough money” to provide clean water to all the world’s population… The scarcity of money is a man-made problem and the Earth Dollar can provide a way to funnel the power of money into the solutions.

(c) Synergy Platform: The “Synergy” Platform is a decentralized blockchain consensus technology that is cloned from an upgraded and modified version of Ethereum, which runs the “Living Economic System”. Synergy will provide the following services: payment processing, paying rewards, running Smart Contracts, running Computer Applications, calculating Ecological Footprint, monetizing Assets, and Medical Research. The Synergy Platform is being developed into a decentralized super computer.

 

We hope to use the Earth Dollar to redefine wealth, success and prosperity by creating a monetary system and economic system centered around the preservation life. We believe the Earth Dollar will also be central in the creation of the world’s largest climate action fund. Unlike other traditional currencies that are created by issuing debt, the Earth Dollar is debt free because it is created via assets.

Note: Mother Earth Trust recognizes the various Indigenous Nations listed above as the true and rightful property owners of the unceded land and their Natural Capital Assets via the Montevideo Declaration of 1933, the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Royal Proclamation of 1763. the Treaty of Niagara of 1764, Tsilhqot’in Nation v. British Columbia, 2014 SCC 44 and many other cases.
