Overview of Military Necessity Justification for Implementing Temporary Sustainable Security Coup d’état De-Industrialization: “We can't muster the force of nations to really begin fundamental changes in their energy systems, their construction, their lifestyle patterns, without a profound understanding of the urgency of the situation. We've got to act now.” – Wesley Clark, Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, 1996-1999, Climate Change is a Global Security Threat “What we are currently facing is the question of how do we shift the paradigms. We have lots of pioneers experimenting at the edges of the current system in every single economic sector, from construction to product design to material sciences and finance and investment. The key question for the Pathway to Scale program is how to begin engaging with the edges of the system, and brokering new partnerships and joint venture-ships, together with the center, the mainstream. We have seen allot of interest from a number of big companies and governments to start connecting to pioneers, both to start getting fresh perspectives and creativity of how you address certain problems, and turn them into opportunities.” – Alejandro Litovsky, Director: Earth Security Initiative; Programa Pathways to Scale - Volans Venture, no Sutentável 20091

Scientist: Only Civilization Collapse will prevent runaway global climate change: Industrial Civilization / Consumption Developmentism as Heat Engine Root cause of Scarcity-Conflict Climate Change-National Security Impending Near-term Extinction reality.

[5] Ending Breeding and Consumption War National Security Policies are currently impossible to implement, except by invoking Military Necessity Coup d’état ’s because: [5.1] Corporate Media’s Pro-Growth Agenda: Silence/Censorship/Non-coverage of Scientific study results advocating Sustainable Security (Walking the National Security – Scarcity & Conflict -- Talk to Support the Troops): ‘Procreate/Consume below carrying capacity’ [5.2] Corporate Media’s Pro-Growth Agenda is the cause of Citizens Eco-Illiterate ignorance of how to contribute to Sustainable Security: Procreate and Consume below carrying capacity, to avoid scarcity induced resource war conflict; and elect EcoLiterate politicians to enact sustainable laws. [5.3] Tragedy of the Dunning-Kruger Democracy Commons: Eco-Illiterate Taker Cheater (conditional co-operators and free rider) citizens elect Eco-Illiterate Taker Cheater (conditional co-operators and free rider) Politicians. [5.4] Nash Equilibrium Game Theory: International Cooperation requires politicians who are issue specific unconditional co-operators - Leavers. Milgram: Obedience Study: 92% of citizens who are conditional co-operators and free riders (65%); which only leaves 8% who are capable of issue specific unconditional cooperation. Consequently, universal franchise One Man, One Vote means that conditional co-operators and free rider Taker citizens elect conditional co-operators and free rider Taker politicians. Electing Eco-Literate Unconditional Co-operators politicians requires only licensing Ecoliterate ‘unconditional co-operators’ with a license to vote. [6] Military Necessity Evaluation of Worst Case Scenario’s: Implementing Coup d’état De-Industrialization vs. Green Economy: [6.1] Implement Coup d’état De-Industrialization and Sustainable Security Constitutions: we mitigate ecological collapse, and our children have a survivable sustainable security opportunity to manage the path towards a de-industrialized low/no tech, agrarian future. [6.2] Do nothing and allow Politicians to Implement Green Economy Industrial Revolution: we keep industrial civilization heat engine lights on for a bit longer, which fails to reduce carbon emissions; activating runaway global climate change and near term extinction. We send our children into a climate furnace involving ecological collapse and extinction for humanity and millions of species.

We demand Sustainable Security Relocalization, Decentralization, De-Industrialization and Primitivization policies, by 22 April 2014 - 09:11 GMT; & turning off all coal, nuclear & fossil fuel sources to the National Grid on 22 April 2015. If we are too few or ignored; we call on the US Military to participate in worldwide simultaneous temporary Coup d'état's; to enact Sustainable Security Constitutions (a ‘SusSec Licence to Vote’ policy). If we fail, we confront the extermination of humanity, by 2100, due to runaway feedback confluence of ecological tipping points. Our failure to act by 2014/15; will aggravate the runaway feedback confluence, rendering it impossible & futile to act later. "We've got to act now.” – Gen. Wesley Clark, NATO '96-99

Currently available Socio-Political Options for Military Officials Concerned about National Security Imperative to Reduce Global Security Threat and avoid possible Near Term Extinction (NTE) threat of Climate Change: Military Appeal to American/World Citizens to ‘Walk their Talk’ of ‘Supporting the Troops’, by massively reducing their energy consumption, by – for example - “planting victory gardens, cutting down on fuel use, saving scrap metal and old rubber, sacrifices, or maybe just examples of common sense and prudent lifestyle changes.” 

Center for Naval Analysis: Military Advisory Board: Powering America’s Defense: Energy and the Risks to National Security16: “A yellow ribbon on a car or truck is a wonderful message of symbolic support for our troops. I’d like to see the American people take it several steps further. If you say a yellow ribbon is the ‘talk,’ then being energy efficient is the ‘walk’. A yellow ribbon on a big, gas-guzzling SUV is a mixed message. We need to make better energy choices in our homes, businesses and transportation, as well as to support our leaders in making policies that change the way we develop and use energy. If we Americans truly embrace this idea, it is a triple win: it reduces our dependence on foreign oil, it reduces our impact on the climate and it makes our nation much more secure.” - Vice Admiral Dennis V.

Scientists: Climate Change is a Near-Term Extinction (NTE) Threat in absence of urgent immediate actions to massively reduce carbon emissions/end industrial civilization: “The rate of change is happening at 300 times faster than any other extinction time in earth history, except that of the Asteroidal impact. [On feedback loops] The distinction between just a feedback process and a runaway feedback process is very, very important indeed. You can have feedback that slowly increases, if you like, the risk and puts the temperature up a bit higher. Runaway feedback says the system responds so much to an increase in temperature that it becomes faster in the way it changes the climate with rising temperature. So the hotter it gets, the faster it gets hotter, and the hotter it gets, the faster it gets hotter faster, until you move into a process that’s completely uncontrollable. And instead of coming up to a new equilibrium temperature that may be a bit high, it goes on going up faster and faster until something runs out—there’s no more methane to release or we’ve run out of forests to burn or something …“The danger of moving into a runaway climate change scenario is now clear and is beginning to be quantified in the last few months. It’s probably the greatest threat that we face as a planet.” (from 11:15ff.) - Artice Methane: Why the Sea Ice Matters18

Large-scale assessments do not include consideration of (A) aggravating Tipping Points (Positive Feedback loops) or (B) mitigating Collapse of Industrial Civilization: 

That is the equivalent of what we face now [with climate change], yet we dither.” - Why I must speak out about climate change28 TED Arctic Methane Emergency Group: Founding members Peter Wadhams, Professor of Ocean Physics, Cambridge; Stephen Salter, Emeritus Professor of Engineering Design, Edinburgh; and Brian Orr, former Principal Science Officer at the UK DoE. o Matter of Artic Methane Alert Survival Letter to World Leaders29 o Methane Outbreak Alert30: “Over the past three decades, snow cover has been reduced by 17-18% per decade and sea ice is declining fast because of human-induced global warming. Consequently, the albedo effect is collapsing in the Arctic. Albedo is the reflection of Sun’s radiation off the white ice and white snow surfaces. Unfortunately, when the albedo effect collapses, the dark sea and dark land mass absorb most of the Sun’s radiation. A collapsing albedo effect is ominously apocalyptic for the Arctic, and for the world. And, disturbingly, Arctic albedo is already in the collapsing stage. This will inevitably lead to ever more methane emissions and a vicious cycle of feedbacks leading to an extinction event, probably unstoppable. .. o AMEG 2012 Policy Brief31: “AMEG’s conclusion is that there is now a planetary emergency. Only by grasping the nettle and intervening with great determination, as in a war effort, is there a chance of remedying the situation before it is too late. International collaboration to fight this common "enemy" of Arctic meltdown must bring all nations together, in the cause of our very survival.” o Malcolm Light (9 Feb 2012): Global Extinction within one Human Lifetime as a Result of a Spreading Atmospheric Arctic Methane Heat wave and Surface Firestorm32; Artic News

on adapting to climate change suggests that economic growth cannot be reconciled with the breadth and rate of impacts as the temperature rises towards 4 °C and beyond — a serious possibility if global apathy over stringent mitigation persists. Away from the microphone and despite claims of 'green growth', few if any scientists working on climate change would disagree with the broad thrust of this candid conclusion….

movement, the “back to the land” movement, “new urbanism,” [the “prepping” movement], and the “environmental movement.” In general, common themes include decentralization of political and economic structures, less material consumption and pollution, a focus on the quality of relationships, culture and the environment as sources of fulfillment, and downscaling of infrastructural development.” - Jason Bradford, Ph.D, Economic Relocalization: A Strategic Response to Peak Oil and Climate Change60; The Oil Drum

Economic Relocalisation: A Strategic Response to Peak Oil and Climate Change; Jason Bradford, Ph.D, The Oil Drum:

[2]

A.

Relocalization is based on a systems approach that doesn’t solve one set of problems only to make another problem worse.

B.

Relocalization is based on an ethic of protecting the Earth System--or Natural Capital-- knowing that despite our cleverness, human well-being is fundamentally derived from the ecological and geological richness of Earth.

C.

Relocalization starts from the premise that the world is a finite place and that humanity is in a state of overshoot. Perpetual growth of the economy and the population is neither possible nor desirable. It is wise to start planning now for a world with less available energy, not more.

D.

Relocalization advocates rebuilding more balanced local economies that emphasize securing basic needs. Local food, energy and water systems are perhaps the most critical to build.xxv In the absence of reliable trade partners, whether from peak oil, natural disaster or political instability, a local economy that at least produces its essential goods will have a true comparative advantage.

E.

Relocalization takes a different perspective altogether. Instead of working to keep a system going that has no future, it calls us to develop means of livelihood that pollute as little as possible and that promote local and regional stability. Since much of our pollution results from the distances goods travel, we must shorten distances between production and consumption as much as we can.

Political Decentralization: Nullification, Secession, etc: “The need for relocalization of the economy in the wake of peak oil and climate change is forcing me to re-examine my views. I am of the belief, however, that should relocalization become a widespread adaptation strategy or simply be forced upon us, the locale where one lives in the United States will become of increasing importance. It is no surprise, then, that

relocalization of economic activity implies relocalization of governmental power. In fact, a kind of precursor to secession, nullification, has already appeared in the form of city councils resolving not to cooperate with federal officials in enforcing the so-called Patriot Act. It has also manifested itself in cities and states proceeding with climate change initiatives when the federal government's official policy was that climate change was not a problem. [..] Instead, secession, recast as political decentralization, is a close cousin of economic relocalization the increasingly urgent need many of us to feel to create our own local currencies, grow more of our own food, harvest our own energy, and the like. [..] What is less apparent to most is the fact that the U.S. has become an Empire teetering on the edge, while it continues to enrich the few at the expense of the many. Nothing less than a complete structural re-tooling of our financial, commercial and economic life will bring about the significant kinds of transformations we'll need moving forward. It is not an appealing thought, that economic relocalization ultimately will not succeed without political decentralizationbut we believe it is an honest one.� - Political Secession and Economic Relocalisation: Parallel Goals to deal with Climate Change & Peak Oil61; Vermont Commons

The New Nullification62 (Resource Insights, 05/06):

A.

Recently, 132 mayors across America announced they were going ahead with policies to fight global warming63 despite the Bush administration's rejection of such measures. In doing so, they were adding to a series of acts by states and localities that when taken together add up to a new and growing nullification movement. Nullification is a long debated theory that says that states have the right to defy federal law or "nullify" it if they feel a particular law is unconstitutional. While the mayors were not exactly defying a federal law, they were openly snubbing an official federal policy of inaction on greenhouse gas emissions. Their action and many similar ones are beginning to call into question the ability of the federal government to impose its will on the individual states and localities.

B.

Take the lawsuit by eight states and New York City against utilities 64 designed to force the utilities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The suit was filed because the EPA refused to take action65 to regulate carbon dioxide emissions, a move that prompted an earlier lawsuit against the agency. Both suits are direct confrontations with a federal government which currently wants to do nothing about greenhouse gas emissions.

In the area of genetically engineered crops, the Food and Drug Administration has long held that such crops are virtually identical to non-biotech crops and therefore require no testing or extraordinary regulation. But, two counties in California have already banned their planting66, and a third has a ban on the ballot this year. (Monsanto, the world's largest producer of genetically engineered crops, is fighting back by trying to pass state laws that pre-empt local control of biotech crops.67)

D.

[..] But, perhaps the best-known acts of nullification are resolutions by states, cities and counties across the nation that call for refusing cooperation with federal authorities trying to enforce the so-called USA Patriot Act. To date some 386 resolutions have been passed 68. The list of cities includes Albuquerque, Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Dallas, Des Moines, Detroit, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New York City, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland (ME), Portland (OR), Providence, Richmond (VA), St. Louis, St. Paul, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.

[2.2] Pennsylvania Court Deals Blow to Secrecy-Obsessed Fracking Industry: Corporations Not The Same As Persons With Privacy Rights 69 (Alternet; 11/04/2013); A.

“The ruling represents the first crack in the judicial armor that has been so meticulously welded together by major corporations,” said Thomas Linzey, executive director of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund, which has helped 150 communities in eight states adopt Community Bill of Rights to limit corporate powers. “It affirms what many communities already know, that change only occurs when people begin to openly question and challenge legal doctrines that have been treated as sacred by most lawyers and judges.”

B.

But where the ruling is likely to make the biggest waves is in the so-called corporate personhood debate. The Judge spent more than a third of her 32-page decision saying why corporations and business entities were not the same as people under Pennsylvania’s constitution, and why, for the purposes of doing business in the state, that federal court rulings that blur the rights of people and businesses do not apply.

Hardwick, VT: Relocalized Full Employment Agrarian Economy71: The town of Hardwick, Vt., has been celebrated as the scene of a local food revival. In recent years, lots of small farms have started up nearby. Tom Stearns, president of a local organic seed company called High Mowing Seeds, says there are more organic farms per capita within 10 miles of Hardwick than anywhere else in the world. There's also a thriving local grocery co-op; a busy farmer's market; even a classy restaurant — Claire's — where almost anything you eat grew or grazed on land nearby.72 [..] Hewitt saw what was happening in Hardwick, and it struck him as unusual, even odd. "Here's this town: Unemployment rate 40 percent higher than the Vermont state average; median income 25 percent lower; and then there was this thing happening around so-called sustainable ag and local food!"

All citizens must immediately begin preparing for the reality that on 22 April 2015, TYGAE is calling for all nations to simultaneously turn off all coal, nuclear and fossil fuel sources of energy to their National Electric Grid. All citizens have two years to make their relocalisation Prepping plans for de-industrialized local food and alternative energy production, including pre-industrial forms of transportation. “Global climate change will pose serious threats to water supplies and agricultural production, leading to mass migration in some cases. At the same time we will see an increasing demand for a dwindling supply of fossil fuels. These factors mean and intense competition for key and vital resources, around the globe and that leads to conflict. http://www.tri-cityherald.com/2013/05/02/2379781/appeals-court-upholds-local-fracking.html http://www.hardwickagriculture.org/ 72 http://www.npr.org/2011/07/15/137499585/vermont-towns-food-focus-still-a-growing-concept 70 71

“This report is different to many other reports, involving military leaders. That is because in it, we make a direct appeal to the American people. We talk in this report about the amazing sacrifices the American people made during World War II, planting victory gardens, cutting down on fuel use, saving scrap metal and old rubber, sacrifices, or maybe just examples of common sense and prudent lifestyle changes. Whatever you call them, the steps taken by the American people then, shortened the war and saved lives. And I believe the same can be said today about these challenges of energy security and climate security. There are individual steps that every American can take. Using less energy. Being more efficient with the energy that we do use. Supporting new policies to help our country take a new energy path. These are the steps that can help us avoid, or shorten wars in the future. Those wars over competition for vital resources. These are steps that can save lives. They may cost money yes, but if we don't spend the money now, we will still pay, and we will pay much more later. In fact, we'll pay in American lives lost. American civilians played an important role in World War II because they understood the stakes and because they were asked to do so. General Wald made the stakes clear, and our report makes the stakes clear. Our current energy posture poses a significant and urgent threat to our national security, militarily, economically and diplomatically. Hopefully more Americans will understand these stakes, and that these consequences will affect them. Hopefully more Americans will hear the very direct request from our Commander in Chief and from this small group of a dozen retired Admirals and Generals. The American people, all of us, through our energy choices can contribute directly to the security of our nation. It is a triple win. It makes us energy independent. It reduces our effect on the environment, and it makes our nation very much more secure.” – Vice Admiral Dennis McGinn; Energy, Climate Change, and the Military: Implications for National Security73; Woodrow Wilson Center “Let’s ignore the models for a moment and consider only the results of a single briefing to the United Nations Conference of the Parties in Copenhagen (COP15)74.

In other words, Obama and others in his administration knew nearterm extinction of humans was already guaranteed. Even before the dire feedbacks were reported by the scientific community, the Obama administration abandoned climate change as a significant issue because it knew we were done as early as 2009. Rather than shoulder the unenviable task of truth-teller, Obama did as his imperial higher-ups demanded: He lied about collapse, and he lied about climate change. And he still does.” – Guy McPherson, [Near-Term Extinction] Climate Change Summary and Update75

Primitivism: Ultimate Goal: Voluntary Sustainability for Our Children and Humanity’s Future Generations:

[4.1] Citizens are advised to (a) Learn primitive skills used prior to industrial revolution from indigenous cultures still living low/no tech sustainable lifestyles, (b) replace AnthroCorpocentric Compulsive Developmentism value system with Gender Balanced Agrarian and Primitivist value system. “Over the past three decades, snow cover has been reduced by 1718% per decade and sea ice is declining fast because of humaninduced global warming. Consequently, the albedo effect is collapsing in the Arctic. Albedo is the reflection of Sun’s radiation off the white ice and white snow surfaces. Unfortunately, when the albedo effect collapses, the dark sea and dark land mass absorb most of the Sun’s radiation. A collapsing albedo effect is ominously apocalyptic for the Arctic, and for the world. And, disturbingly, Arctic albedo is already in the collapsing stage. This will inevitably lead to ever more methane emissions and a vicious cycle of feedbacks leading to an extinction event, probably unstoppable.” - Arctic Methane Emergency Group; Methane Outbreak Alert76

consumption, and (b) the laws of human nature, in terms of public problem solving, and a socio-political focus on root cause problem solving.77 In Mosuo culture, women are the head of the house, property is passed through the female line, and women tend to make the business decisions. Mosuo women carry on the family name and run the households, which are usually made up of several families, with one woman elected as the head. The head matriarchs of each village govern the region by committee. Political power, however, remains in the hands of males, creating a gender-balanced society. The traditional Mosuo religion worships nature, is called Daba, with Lugu Lake regarded as the Mother Goddess and the mountain overlooking it venerated as the Goddess of Love. Their focus is their close relationship to the land that supports them and with their neighbours, who also support them.

If World citizens fail to demand Sustainable Security policies to prevent ecological collapse; TYGAE call for simultaneous MILINT Earth Day Coup d'état’ of World’s Democracies; to replace failed malfunctioning ‘One Person, One Vote’ policy with a ‘Sustainable Security Licence to Vote’ policy. If World’s Military Officials fail, prepare for extinction, by 2060, if not much sooner, due to the runaway feedback confluence of overpopulation, overconsumption, resource scarcity induced conflict and climate change tipping points. Failure of citizens/Military to act by (2014/2015); while they still can; will aggravate the runaway feedback confluence, rendering it impossible and futile to act later. The irreconcilable acceptance of near-term extinction is written in acceptance that humanity has now crossed numerous irreversible climatic thresholds. It is also written from the perspective that by so doing, we have ushered in intractable near term extinction (NTE) of most of life within the next several decades.

distance for entrenched self-preservation to render it an abstraction in our daily lives. So again, the following is written from the viewpoint as to when this is no longer true, when NTE breaks through abstraction, and detonates in full acceptance of the most profoundly devastating reality we’ve ever had to both live with and through.” – Daniel Drumright, The Irreconcilable Acceptance of Near-Term Extinction (NTE)79; Nature Bats Last “I was testifying before a House Committee a few months ago and one of the members was very sceptical of climate change and was arguing with me, because I presented some of the reasons why I thought climate change was a serious problem, and I finally said "Congressman look, set aside climate change, do you realize that seven of the nine things that I've suggested will help us be allot more resilient against terrorism or oil cutoffs." And he said, "Oh if you are doing them for that reason, then its fine."” - James Woolsey80; Former CIA Director “Climate, Energy together are the type of a crisis that could be described as creeping up on you.

“There is no security without sustainability”: In the absence of an international new moral order where World Political, or Military Leaders implement Guerrylla laws to regulate and reduce human procreation and resource utilization behaviour; towards a sustainable, pre-industrial lifestyle paradigm; the runaway feedback confluence of overpopulation, overconsumption, ecological tipping points, resource scarcity and climate change, will generate scarcity induced conflict and war (perhaps nuclear) confronting regions at an accelerated pace, resulting in the “collapse of the global economic system and every market-oriented national economy”, by 2030, and the near term extinction (NTE) of humanity, by 2060. “The Arctic isn’t Vegas — what happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic — it’s the planet’s air conditioner.

As one little-discussed example, atmospheric oxygen levels are dropping to levels considered dangerous for humans86. An increasing number of scientists agree that warming of 4 to 6 C causes a dead planet. And, they go on to say, we’ll be there by 206087. The ultra-conservative International Energy Agency, on the other hand, concludes that88, “coal will nearly overtake oil as the dominant energy source by 2017 … without a major shift away from coal, average global temperatures could rise by 6 degrees Celsius by 2050, leading to devastating climate change.” At the 11:20 mark of this video, climate scientist Paul Beckwith indicates Earth could warm by 6 C within a decade 89. If you think his view is extreme, consider the reconstruction of regional and global temperature for the past 11,300 years published in Science in March 201390.

Military Coup d'état Implementation of Sustainable Security Constitutions: Walking the National Security Walk to Support the Troops: “A yellow ribbon on a car or truck is a wonderful message of symbolic support for our troops. I’d like to see the American people take it several steps further. If you say a yellow ribbon is the ‘talk,’ then being energy efficient is the ‘walk’. A yellow ribbon on a big, gas-guzzling SUV is a mixed message. We need to make better energy choices in our homes, businesses and transportation, as well as to support our leaders in making policies that change the way we develop and use energy. If we Americans truly embrace this idea, it is a triple win: it reduces our dependence on foreign oil, it reduces our impact on the climate and it makes our nation much more secure.” - Vice Admiral Dennis V.

If you look at the general background change, for instance, it takes about 10,000 years to change the concentration of carbon dioxide by 100 ppm — we’re doing it in 30 years at this year’s rate… so, the rate of change in the climate is phenomenal compared to previous extinction events. We’re already in a mass extinction event.

[5] Sustainable Security Licence to Vote: Only citizens who have been, and continue to demonstrate not only their intellectual theoretical Sustainability consciousness, but who also ‘walk their sustainability talk’, in terms of maintaining their procreation and consumption choices, below carrying capacity; i.e. Sustainable Leavers; should be the only individuals considered worthy of the ‘Sustainable Security Licence to Vote.’ [6] All other citizens who were either (a) so eco-illiterate they were not even aware of the reality of the climate change, energy and resource scarcity national security risks facing the country, and/or (b) those who were aware of the reality of these Environmental security risks, but lacked the consciousness and commitment to implement the required ‘sustainable security’ procreation and consumption behaviour in their own lifestyles, or to use their stolen resources to enable a sustainable security future; should forthwith lose their right to vote, until they demonstrate their capacity to procreate and consume below carrying capacity. Until then they shall be considered ‘Unsustainable Scarcity Combatants’; and denied voting rights. [7]

How Does a Citizen verify whether they are a Sustainable Leaver?:

[7.1]

A Sustainable Leaver / Eco-Innocent is someone who either has:

A.

0 children, with a consumption footprint < 20 gha (Intn'l Biocapacity (1 gha) x 20);

B.

1 child, with consumption footprint < 1 gha.

[7.2]

An Unsustainable Taker / Scarcity-Combatant is someone who has:

A.

0 children, with consumption footprint > 20 gha; or

B.

1 child, consumption footprint > 1 gha; or

C.

2 or more children.

[7.3] For example: The author’s consumption Footprint94 using Sustainable Economy's Myfootprint.org quiz, is 12.75 global hectares (gha). South Africa's average consumption footprint is 38.59 gha. I have no children, consequently my procreation factor is 0 x 20* = 0. Her Consumption (12.75) x Procreation (0) = Eco Footprint of 12.75/0 gha. If accurate, if everyone consumed like her, we would need 0.81 earths.95 Conversely, if everyone consumed and procreated like President Jacob Zuma, we would need 2090 earths96.

President Zuma’s Procreation Factor is 500 [President Zuma has 25 children. His procreation footprint factor is 25 x 20* = 500. (Each Child increases a parents footprint by factor of 20 )].

Sustainable (Leaver) v Unsustainable (Taker):

[8.1] An individuals Sustainable (Leaver) or Unsustainable (Taker) Footprint is a result of: (A) Consumption Footprint multiplied by (B) Procreation Factor (Every Child increases EcoFootprint by a factor of 20 - Oregon Univ. Study97) [9]

Consumption Footprint:

[9.1] “The Ecological Footprint (EF) is a measure of the consumption of renewable natural resources by a human population. A country’s EF is the total area of productive land or sea required to produce all the crops, meat, seafood, wood and fibre it consumes, to sustain its energy consumption and to give space for its infrastructure. The EF can be compared with the biologically productive capacity of the land and sea available to that country’s population.” [9.2] Guerrylla Laws define the Eco/Ego Footprint98 procreation and consumption behaviour of an individual as a Sustainable Leaver (aka Eco-Innocent) or Unsustainable Taker (aka Scarcity-Combatant), based upon a sustainable consumption bio-capacity of 1 global hectare (gha)99 (60 % of 1.8 gha)100 in accordance with the proactive conservation policies of Bhutan101; multiplied by an individuals Breeding footprint factor of 20 per child. [(Each Child increases a parents footprint by factor of 20)] [9.3]

Procreation Factor:

[10.1] Every Child increases EcoFootprint by a factor of 20 - Oregon Univ. Study104: is 33280 gha [Consumption (65.66) x Procreation (500) = Net Footprint of 33280 gha]. If accurate, if everyone consumed and procreated like President Zuma, we would need 2,090 earths. http://sqworms.weebly.com/jacob-zuma-ego-2090.html 97 http://sqswans.weebly.com/child--ecofootprint-x-20.html 98 EcoFootprint: The difference between the biocapacity and Ecological Footprint of a region or country. A biocapacity deficit occurs when the Footprint of a population exceeds the biocapacity of the area available to that population. If there is a regional or national biocapacity deficit, it means that the region is importing biocapacity through trade or liquidating regional ecological assets. Global biocapacity deficit cannot be compensated through trade, and is overshoot. 99 Sustainable Footprint Biocapacity: A biocapacity of 1 gha assumes that 40% of land is set aside for other species. 1 gha is 60 % of 1.8 gha, therefore .8 hectares is set aside for other species. 100 International Biocapacity: In 2006, the average biologically productive area (biocapacity) per person worldwide was approximately 1.8 global hectares (gha) per capita. In 2008, there were ~ 12 billion hectares of biologically productive land and water on Earth. Dividing by the number of people alive in that year (6.7 billion) gives 1.79 global hectares per person. This assumes that no land is set aside for other species that consume the same biological material as humans. If for example, there were only 3.5 billion people alive that year, that would have provided everyone with 3.5 gha. If there were only 1 billion people, their would be 12gha biocapacity for each persons needs. 101 Bhutan Proactive Conservation: Bhutan is seen as a model for proactive conservation initiatives. The Kingdom has received international acclaim for its commitment to the maintenance of its biodiversity. This is reflected in the decision to maintain at least sixty percent of the land area under forest cover, to designate more than 40% of its territory as national parks, reserves and other protected areas, and most recently to identify a further nine percent of land area as biodiversity corridors linking the protected areas. Environmental conservation has been placed at the core of the nation's development strategy, the middle path. It is not treated as a sector but rather as a set of concerns that must be mainstreamed in Bhutan's overall approach to development planning and to be buttressed by the force of law. - "Parks of Bhutan".

International Sustainable Security Peace Treaties:

[11.1] All ‘Peace treaties’ which do not require both parties to maintain their nation citizens’ procreation and consumption practices below carrying capacity, as a fundamental requirement for the credibility of the peace treaty should be considered ‘War is Peace’ Whore treaties, ruled null and void, and renegotiated.

Any nation which allows their citizens or corporations to engage in a breeding, consumption or production war, shall be considered to have declared war with all other Sustainable Security nations.

"Only the perception of freedom must be encouraged among the ignorant masses." - Karl Marx. “In order to achieve this goal [of world domination], we must introduce universal suffrage beforehand, without distinctions of class and wealth. Then the masses of people will decide everything; and since it [universal suffrage] is controlled by us [through the media] we will achieve through it the absolute majority, which we could never achieve if only the educated and possessing classes had the vote.” -- Protocols of the Elders of Zion, 10th Sitting, Wallstein Publishing House, ISBN 3-89244-191x, p. 60 “Nowadays, Democracy is nothing more than a facade for plutocracy. Because the nations no longer tolerate naked plutocracy, their masters allow them nominal power, while retaining factual power in the hands of the plutocrats. In republican as well as monarchical democracies the statesmen are but puppets and the capitalists are their string-pullers.

Not any clown can do it; only persons qualified to live – procreate and consume below carrying capacity – are qualified to vote/drive the country on a sustainable path. Voting requires citizens who are qualified to live sustainably and to vote for politicians to legislate sustainable laws, benefiting all humans and nature. Just like a qualified captain’s navigation of his Ship or Space Ship benefits all of the passengers. Citizens who know fuck all about living below carrying capacity in terms of their procreation and consumption, have as much qualifications to vote about how or where to drive their country to sustainable use of its resources (which include its military men and women); as a child playing with a plastic toy ship in the bath; is qualified to be the Captain of a massive Tanker/Sail Boat.

Failure of Citizens and Military to Act: Runaway Feedback Confluence of Tipping Points to Extinction: “If we don't take action now, every day, every year that goes by, the options for dealing with the effects of climate change and the effects of energy security become much much more expensive, and in fact some of the options completely dissapear over the next ten to twenty years; if we don't start taking some prudent actions now.” – Vice Admiral Dennis McGinnis; Climate Patriots: A Military Perspective on Energy, Climate Change and National Security105

If Military Officials fail to enact Sustainable Security Constitutions, by worldwide simultaneous temporary Coup d'état measures in 2015; it shall certainly result in the extermination of humanity, by 2060, if not sooner, due to the runaway feedback confluence of overpopulation, overconsumption, resource scarcity induced conflict and climate change tipping points. “Even if all man-made greenhouse gas emissions were stopped tomorrow and carbon-dioxide levels stabilized at today's concentration, by the end of this century the global average temperature would increase by about 4.3 degrees Fahrenheit, or about 2.4 degrees centigrade above pre-industrial levels, which is significantly above the level which scientists and policymakers agree is a threshold for dangerous climate change. Of course, greenhouse gas emissions will not stop tomorrow, so the actual temperature increase will likely be significantly larger, resulting in potentially catastrophic impacts to society unless other steps are taken to reduce the Earth's temperature.” -- Charles Greene, A Very Inconvenient Truth106

Failure of citizens, and/or Military to act now, while they still can; shall aggravate the runaway feedback confluence, rendering it impossible and futile to act later. The Arctic situation is snowballing: dangerous changes in the Arctic derived from accumulated anthropogenic green house gases lead to more activities conducive to further greenhouse gas emissions. This situation has the momentum of a run-away train. I felt there was little hope that any one nation would take the first step to abandon the greed track. However, a reaction has come, unexpectedly, from the smallest, but perhaps most affected, player. In an election on March 12 2013, Greenlanders elected Aleqa Hammond, from the social-democratic party, as their new leader. Her program places human rights and environmental conservation, the underpinning of their traditional livelihoods as hunters and fishers, above the financial benefits of the resource rush. She has committed to remove the law that opened the door to the mining boom. The new government have opted to stop the charging juggernaut that other nations seem unable — or unwilling — to contain. The Greenlandic inßit are few and humble, but have given a lesson to the most powerful nations. Other nations with wealthier citizens should take note and ask themselves if they too would have the courage to walk away from the promises of wealth that fuels the run-away train of climate change. - Final Frontiers: The Artic107 (Conversation; 04/04/2013)
