Energy Revolution
Information is power, and the media are the armed wing of a system based on it.
Nothing new. The West knows this formula much earlier than Orson Wells and Licio Gelli.
What is new is how many of us hope will happen between today and tomorrow: the election of the first black president in American history at the most critical and transitional system of the West. A president who could tell us all something new on TV, anywhere, on the radio. A face clean, perfect for giving hope and a future as usual, dear, a bit West 'and dying in an identity crisis. How Obama will do for other countries and for the whole world? I do not know. Gandhi is another thing.
This post, however, is not dedicated to Obama. This post is a return to my writing on the web with a broader theme.
Check out this video:
E 'Kennedy, the Obama of the past that calls a new revolution, the energy. It is no coincidence that the video is sponsored by Greenpeace , a brand of ecology who knows how to create events for communication between their battles environmentalist. Battles that will soon be importing even the great ones of the earth will eat sushi in Kyoto more often than they did in recent years, to sign new protocols in defense of nature and, more importantly, in defense of their power.
I do not want to equate Greenpeace - which I support with my annual fee of € 50 - with what I say in a moment. I just want to reflect on the next bubble - or dancing - the nature of geopolitics and talking to my view of what lies ahead.
----------------------------- The financial bubble has burst. That of the oil well and also that of raw materials. Many have lost, but the usual names have gained enormous capital, raking necessary for the transformation of the energy-production system with new infrastructures and new technologies at an enormous cost, which certainly does not intend to pay those in charge of their own pockets.
To leave the global system based on oil and switch to a new one based on renewable energy sources, we need economic resources stratosphere. Those 700 billion dollars allocated by the U.S. government to rescue its financial system are just a drop in comparison.
The big players are well aware of this the energy, oil, coal and gas are 'for! And from time reflected:
"What Famo system to ensure that the West is the stronger of the Global Systems for the next 50 years, in spite China, India and Russia? ".
In the words of the Prince of Salina, things will change because everything stays as it is. But we want to change money.
The war in Iraq - and a little 'less than Afghanistan - had the dual role of putting one foot with the marines in amphibious strategic production areas to keep in check the oil-hungry developing countries and, equally important, pushing oil prices higher in order to give players in the field of earn about the same price of oil.
On the one hand, industrial players who will build new plants and find new technologies to exploit renewable resources, solar, wind, geothermal, etc. always less expensive scale, redditizzi.
other side are the protagonists financial that sovereign wealth funds of the producing countries and major international investors. Finance with the "F" capitalized, which is certainly not dead because of subprime mortgages. Indeed, thanks to them we have won big. Because - as my friend who works in a bank - in the stock market crisis is not conceivable that all lose. There is always someone who earns Who has willed the crisis, scheduled and triggered.
And the big banks, starting with the U.S.? Well, the big banks are now not the case a bit 'more public, a little' less scattered and a bit 'longer under a common umbrella. Why the conversion of the overall system design must be in the hands of fewer people as possible. Less say their heads in the coming years, the easier it is - in terms of decisions, choices and creations of movement of capital and infrastructure - to implement the transformation of the system quickly.
So this is the picture. Obama will be elected? If it is, the conversion of the Western model of a system based on oil to a more environmentally friendly will be easier. Why Obama is a powerful symbol of the new. As it was Kennedy (perhaps more today than yesterday, who has seen the bullets caught).
The political-industrial-financial system has already said its global. And Obama is spokesman system, the better. Why McCain is more than able to guide, stimulate and fascinate the general public on a decision already taken by those in charge. We all nice big spenders will buy environmentally friendly cars and solar installations convinced - one way or another - or Obama who has the little face clean. It 's like in the movie There Will Be Blood: Daniel Day Lewis was going to make contracts holding hands her child from the innocent little face. Lacrima olet .
Here is that ecology and renewables are the new bubble that lies ahead. I am convinced many of us, he's also spoken to in the Report episode dedicated to the financial collapse.
But this time will not be just a bubble. It is no longer just creative labs in Silicon Valley to water with venture capital or loans to give to everyone. This bubble will go much further, to push the West ahead of emerging regaining lost ground. It 's the strategy with which the West once again proposes himself as a leader from the face of good and democratic. The face of eco-friendly and non-racial Obama-Kennedy.
The success of the West has always been a successful communication and is spelled with two words: the future and hope.
The West System has triumphed in the last century and National Socialism because Communism was a system based on these two values \u200b\u200bof communication. Too often smokescreen for a far more cynical and pragmatic body to which little is imported waste resources, people starving and thirsty others.

The West is not dead. He's just changing face.
It will benefit the ecosystem, in addition to the system?
We'll see.
