@mattcropp @loppear @LeoSammallahti #skyTrust! Although I might want to broaden the scope... perhaps #commonEarth?

Solving 'the tragedy of the commons' at the global level seems to be the defining challenge-of-our-time. Sadly the Ostroms are no longer with us.

A global commons would essentially be a global govt., and that seems tricky/dangerous.

I see a global federation as more achievable, with unionized tariffing against dissenters for economic losses 🤷

@loppear @LeoSammallahti Yeah, I think this, if done on a global scale, is a very solid idea with powerful redistributive effects towards underdeveloped countries.

The geopolitics of making a #SkyTrust happen, on the other hand, is another story entirely.

o no, I just broke my getting-in-long-winded-fb-arguments sobriety defending the #SkyTrust approach to #CarbonPricing on a local news website's FB post...

Dude told me to fuck myself 4x in a response and seems pretty proud of himself for it...
