(The Big Tree model introduced here is based on a revolution in the financial markets and utilizes the virtual platforms that are the foundation of change in the business world over the last two decades. Through virtual platforms and currency – Big Tree brings this evolution to the Resource Sector.)
The concept of the infinity loop ♾️ is meant to slow, steady and finally reverse the advance of global biological degradation. A financial representation of the other species living on the planet that represents their vital role in our economic system and their living role of higher biological importance. Applying state issue FIAT currencies generated by the destruction of biodiversity back into biodiversity stewardship, and receiving another currency back, registers a choice to channel wealth through the natural system. When the new virtual money is spent in the market place – it puts a value to nature and represents a higher value than the FIAT currency which only represents a loss or damage to our biosphere. Underpinned by a section of land virtually recorded through our platform to a specific biodiversity stewardship asset, this first project will protect 500,000 hectares or pristine “Prime” Great Boreal Forest in partnership with the First Nations, for 20 years and represents the capacity to “filter’ $500,000,000 FIAT dollars a year and $10,000,000,000 FIAT dollars over the life of the project.
The Infinity loop ‘Filters’ the money created by the industrial economy. The monetization of FIAT currencies proxies the degradation of the biosphere. Our program puts this money back through the biosphere in programs that protect and study the natural world, creating extra value to our new virtual currency. We cannot recoup the immeasurable loss our financial system is already responsible for; let it suffice that the greater interest will be a better understanding of humanity’s place within the planet’s ecosystem that is bigger than ourselves.
The infinity loop concept is a breakthrough which utilizes a virtual platform to redesign and enhance the existing capital system. It introduces a value of nature to counter the damage done by our financial system, altering the way we can create wealth to represent and respect what is truly important to our existence and a livable planet.
Humanity must face up to the central role our financial systems are playing in the pollution and destruction of the planet. It is our responsibility within this natural system to balance that impact.
One wonders at the recklessness of our species as we begin to throw pebbles into space at the feet of eternity and stare out at the universal. The point of crisis we have reached is simple – we did not put anything back into the system that sustains us. We have established ourselves only in a role as ‘takers’. This understanding must be clear to humanity as a beneficial participant in the universal – and not just as takers. To care for the process of nature is the only thing that can sustain us. Altering our impact to care-taker means introducing a balance in our financial system, sustaining a planet that at this time we are only harvesting. Big Tree represents the introduction of the other half of this equation in order to balance our existence. Natural Asset Resource Management shifts our financial system from the imbalance of harvest only, to an equation of Sustaining while Harvesting (S=H). Our currency will provide value to the holder, the planet, and our financial systems by filtering FIAT currencies through First Nations managed biodiversity projects. Individuals do so voluntarily and may spend their virtual coin with the added value that it represents 20 years of Biodiversity study and stewardship.
The worlds remaining intact prime biodiversity must be entered into the balance sheet of the global financial system, adding its value to our everyday life by finding representation in our currencies. One half of the value of the dollar represents the life it has taken. Once it is filtered through the Big Tree platform, the other half of the value it represents is the life it sustains. A system is needed now that balances the enormously detrimental impact we are having on the biosphere, because a system that represents only taking from the planet – is designed to collapse. A capital system that only draws down and never replenishes its source asset is unsustainable. In a closed loop system like our planet this is a fatal design flaw that leads to one result, ecological collapse.
Please support the initiative to introduce the First Nations of Ontario, Canada into the role of Natural Stewards and developers of this new biodiversity sustainability business – representing the other half of an economy that brings balance to our system, health to our planet and a more certain future to everyone.
