PROFIT
Consciousness
Economics, culture, and ecosystem

HUMANOMICS: “From an Energy-Backed Currency to a Consciousness-Backed Culture through Redefining Profit”
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

HUMANOMICS: “From an Energy-Backed Currency to a Consciousness-Backed Culture through Redefining Profit”
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
