Why
does big media avoid news of the greatest idea and micro practice network of climate crisis resolution? (Again RSVP info@worldcitizen.tv if you know a greater social business in this area.)
The pledge of microenergycredits.com (MEC) is to keep on aggregating
carbon free households until a market of a quarter of billion clean households have been fully credited. The main carbon offset
exchanges can’t be bothered with counting one rural household at a time. So MEC uses mobiles and partners hi-trust microcredits
who already serve local markets to accumulate the data until it is large enough to get a carbon offset contract for the clean
householders to share.
MEC tells us the same methodology can
be used for any millennium type goal where one by one auditing needs to be aggregated before reaching amounts worth crediting
or rewarding achievement grants from global funds seeking to sustain local empowerment. We can design ways so that global
markets become free again to value communal sustainability (a core assumption of anyone who applies Adam Smith correctly)
After devoting his life to the
race to end poverty, Muhammad Yunus now finds his country timebombed to be flooded by the climate crisis. The least social
business networkers and Bangladeshi friends could do is to publicise and network the case of MEC, and so honor the efforts
of Dr Yunus to unite the world on valuing sustainability.
Orchestrated out of Seattle, MEC is led by April Alderdice
–aco-founder of Grameen Shakti in 1996 (our next case). MEC’s first partners are in India, Mongolia and Uganda and include such microfinance institutions as FINCA and Xacbank.
What
connections can we map between Obama's promise to race to 5 million green jobs and real races already out there
in micro up networks led by eg Bangladesh (BBC report) with GrameenShakti's race to create 100000 green jobs for village women entrepreneurs in the next 5 years,
and a consortium of 15 Bangla companies led by Grameen and BRAC collaborating to make Bangladesh a world leader in Photovoltaic manufacturing ? This seems to be one of the primary networking action-searches that Nobel Laureate Dr Muhammad Yunus 5000 Youth
Ambassadors can linkin to during 09/10 with a debrief at kenya microcredit summit in april 2010 which we are told that at least 50 yunus inpired youth from MFIconnect will be there to review the year's action progress in every Yes We Can Way -more here

USA Filenote 1 Out of Seattle Grameen Shakti director April Allderdice
has launched http://microenergycredits.com Its goal to connect quarter of a billion clean energy households obtaining carbon credits for them by aggregating records
of partnering MFI who are given a mobile gadget to audit with. Early partners include FINCA Uganda and a Mongolian MFI. This way of making a market for is fascinating
as April believes credits for other millennium goals could also be "micromarketed" by rings of the world's deepest
microcredits.

Gaithersburg, about 15 miles nw of Washington DC , Neville Williams, author of chasing the sun, aficionado of solar energy

USA Filenote 3 Nearly
5 months into the Obama Yes We Can administration, I suppose the pledge to create 5 million green jobs in USA is slowly emerging somewhere but I
am not export enough to find out where. My understanding is that the formal representation of gshakti out of Grameen America which was being
run by Amy Wilson no longer exists but I don’t know if Grameen America has any active team on Green Initiatives.
USA Filenote
4 One wonders what is going to happen
next at Jeff Skolls film studio, producers of Inconvenient Truth. Anecdotal evidence of the citizen invitation (thousands
trained to present dvds of the movie) is that folk got a bit fed up of presenting a movie that seemed to be about b95%
about the problem and less than 5% linking in to solution. Conversely, Skoll has headhunted Larry Brilliant from
ceo of google.org (and former media ending smallpox and designing components or aravind eyecare franchise) to make movies
on the big crises of our times. Larry has specifically said that global warming is one of the big 4 and recognizes that no
large nation is at greater risk than Bangladesh to first meltdown.
USA Filenote 5The PrincetonUniversity microcredit club I think it is fair to say that Sam Daley-Harris as a Princeton resident, and I both like had as its speaker http://www.greenmicrofinance.org/About-Us/GMf-Team-Profiles – I have an uneasy feeling this network is taking over a lead position that I would have preferred to see bangladeshi-driven

their greenhouse gas emissions to below zero, setting
a groundbreaking standard for all cities to follow. My question- can america ever be serious about 5 million
green jobs without community banking?

GrameenEnergy.com is a site edited by friends of Grameen. We host this
in the belief that humanity’s number 1 click on the web for valuing solar energy should be the official site of Grameen
Energy known locally in Bangladesh as Grameen Shakti
The world entrepreneur hero of Grameen Shakti is Dipal Barua, one of the four founding employees of Grameen Bank with the equally entrepreneurial
Mrs Begum, Professor Latifee of Grameen Trust and Dr Yunus - Microcredit and A*B*C of creating world without poverty. Every single employee serving Grameen’s aim to help the poorest of the poor impresses us for their flows and mission . There are 25000+ of them – we haven't met them all yet, but wish to. Similarly
there are at least another 100000 Bangladeshi grassroots intrapreneurs – and together they offer extraordinary insights into how 21st C developing nations can end poverty collaboratively,
cleanly and by creating brilliant jobs for everyone- women, youth and men
We have collected a lot of video interviews
of work inside grameen which we will be editing in ways that demonstrate the reality of why any college student should consider
interning with grameen or other outstanding Bangladeshi Social Business now if they wish to knowledge exchange with the most
sustainable experiments on the planet. Perhaps you’ll find it cheeky but if there’s a CEO of a fortune 500 company
who wants to do an internship, well pay the economy ticket and local hotel price. We think it would be the most exciting business
trip. Our video film team accompanying you is optional – your Future Capitalism decision!

The International Labour Organisation (ILO) will provide
Bangladesh with technical supports for expansion of renewable and clean energy as part of its initiative on creating green
jobs worldwide. In this regard, according to the ILO sources here. Bureau of Manpower Employment and Training (BMET),
country's lone manpower training agency, and Grameen Shakti http://www.gshakti.org , a subsidiary of Grameen Bank, working for expanding renewable energy are expected to sign a Memorandum of Understanding
(MoU) today.
Under the MoU, skill development training will be imparted to
solar energy technicians of the state-run technical training centres allover the country. The ILO will support the training.
The MoU is seen as a good example of public private partnership between the two agencies for promotion of renewable
energy in Bangladesh, the sources said. Grameen Shakti has so far installed more than 225,000 Solar Home systems (SHs)
connecting 12 to 15 thousand new solar SHs every month in cooperation with other 15 organisations. This has created
good demand for new skills and opened up new avenue for creating a huge umber of green jobs for Bangladesh where the green
job initiative was launched last year.

10 October 2008: On US Public Sector tv , George Soros says: For 25 years now we have been compounding a sub-optimal
- and non-sustainable -globalisation. Can we get over the "macro" arrogance that it was always extremely
unlikely that we would compound a perfect globalisation the first time round? Can we co-create a stage empowering all
sides to question possible errors and unite transparently around testing out more human futures? Let's
see what 10000 youth can make of these 18 conversation starters
Free Market of Ending Poverty:
Our generation’s Do Now crossroads.
Can we agree collaboration goals for choosing a globalisation map capable of uniting humanity and empowering community sustainability?
Whatqualities would you design into a banking for and by people? One that includes everyone’s
ability to make a lifetime difference? A simple one that everyone can understand and where nobody is seeking to profit
by compounding unknown risk onto others
Are you aware that thriving non-carbon economies are possible, and create lots of green jobs? Eg How can peoples share confidence in solar energy
sans frontieres? Do you enjoy access to peer networks that open source and action learn?
Did you know that microcredit’s purpose of banks
that end poverty was co-founded by a woman? What did she identify with the communal practice and DNA of microcredit from
day 1?
Can we explore how mobile brings extraordinary new solutions for the poorest and indeed anyone who wishes to renew job creation in the
community?
A generation of Bangladeshi’s have invested in a grassroots national strategy of innovating a service economy around sustainability and
collaboration solutions. Agents of community to community worldwide trade wanted!
Grameen’s welcoming approach to youth and everyone is : learning
by doing. Have you ever tried this opposite kind of educational experience?
Social Business Entrepreneurial Revolution 1 (ER1). Bllionaires can compound so much more with endlessly
recyclable social business dollar than one-off charity dollar
SBER2: SB integrates a goodwill
multiplying governance system. This is what brand leadership needs to faciltate wherever people communally want to sustain
truly purposeful organisation
SBER3: Arguably health is the top priortity sector, after banking, for social business global partnerships in capitalism’s
future. Time for microhealthsummit?
SBER4 : 100000 Bangladeshi’s are ready to share a generation’s microentrepreneur experience of SB. Youth
networks urgently wanted
Grounded Practice: For 30 years now, SB models help micro-economists
question when are the conventional wisdoms of globalisation and of development policy actually conventional
blunders
Most Social Businesses serving "bottom billion" customers need to generate positive cashflow whilst offering a price at least ten times lower than consumer markets in big cities.. The New Creativity!
Internetworker for the Poor – Don’t write off Dr Yunus as merely Banker for the Poor. Innovation networks know him
as one of humanity’s great innovation gravities for ending digital divides
A safe assumption for the future is that youth will need to create the majority of jobs. Debate!
Global Industry Sector Responsibility: 2008
has shown this to be the Opportunity and Threat to all our futures. Can you help anyone to hear about the no risk guarantee
Dr Yunus offers leaders who seriously want to partner this quest

Until recently lawyers and other advisers of global corporations have advised
there is no contest- if you are in the boardroom of a shareholder owned corporation, you must apply the macro rules of governance
However
compound consequences of this are now spreading doubt in many places
Firstly, there is at least one global sector "banking"
where both approaches have been tested worldwide, and the macro governed banks are now crashing through subprime and other
compound coflicts whereas the microcredit banks that have stood the test of time have the safest repayment rates.
Moreover this syetm difference is raising a popular question impacting rich as well as developing worlds - is the prime purpose
of banks to invest in productivity and jobs, or in fuelling maximum consumption? Ultimately we all live in communities, which
kind of bank do you to prefer to have all around the future of you and yours?
Secondly, it is now beyond reasonable
doubt that the energy companies that saw themselves as always mainly in the carbon energy industry have put humanity on an
exponential downcurve. The only questions are how far down are we - indeed how far away are we from irreversible
planetary and species damage? It is interesting that an economist of the stature of Lord Nicholas Stern has called the
climate/energy crisis the greatest failng of free markets ever. If this is so, then monopoly governance by macro's rules
are not always what free market was intended to mean by the orignaitors of this central logic of economics
Thirdly,
there is no doubt that microeconomists were much more respected 25 years ago - indeed animators of action learning
what entrepreneurs do. This was before the spreadsheet made governing globally by numbers practical in such short periods
as quarters or less. After 4 decades of being the most prolific leaders writer for The Ecoomist, my father's
writings in te 1980s caled most macroeconimcs disgraceul political chicaery and forecast that if we were to integrate
localities into an equtaible and sustaining globalsiation then a Nobel Laureate would need to imspire the worldwide to
hunt out 30000+ replicable community rising projects geared to ending extreme poverty's trap..
This book
will look at both sides alternating in early chapters between macro's official doctrine, and micro now that at least 100000
intrapreneurs are practising this in Bangladesh's largest and most successful organsiational systes,. Ones that Bll Clinton
has noted are the driver of this natins's recent good news in terms of compound grwoth
