If we are to survive and grow as a thriving global multi-culture we’re going to have to make some major changes to our society over the next few hundred years. One sided globalization, our manana approach to the environment, and the US disgrace in the United Nations over Iraq on the eve of several new Superpowers emerging, are three of the biggest and most obvious issues we need to address, but there is so much more. Reforms are going to be needed that are both potent and implementable. Reforms that maintain the power and financial status quo, and actually solve the key elements of the problems at the same time.

Included in this space previously was confusing and mildly complex comments on the processes towards developing the GIBR solutions. They have been removed in favour of this: The key and unconfusing issue is that the reforms developed inside the GIBR are designed to solve the problems so that those who have the most power in this world (politicians and the most powerful in industry) will benefit the most; benefit materially with more real money and more real power than they have under the existing systems and processes, and NOT some abstract benefit about feeling good for doing the right thing. The proof will be in the pudding and the GIBR will introduce several major reforms into the global arena in its first 24 months.

• A series of reforms that will solve the issue of Climate Change completely; not contribute, not mitigate, solve COMPLETELY.
• Reforms to replace the massive hole that will be created in the global economy by the inevitable and imminent subordination of coal, oil and gas as fuel sources.
• A reform to completely re-organize the Global Fishing Industry and COMPLETELY solve the issue of overfishing.
• A reform for the Forestry Industry that will COMPLETELY solve the issue of native forest logging.
• Reforms to address the biggest law and order issues, primarily in the United States, but also for other countries.
• A series of reforms for the United Nations and the United States legislative processes.
• Reforms of commerce and economies to address issues that MUST arise in the coming decades.
• Reforms to change the conditions of Globalization so that it’s not so one-sided.
• Healthcare, agriculture and education reforms that will deliver solutions all sides will prefer to what we have at present.

These reforms, and others, will inject more than US$30 Trillion in new commerce into the global economy, and we can be confident they will be implemented because those who have power over their implementation, politicians and the most powerful in industry, will be materially better off under the reforms. For big picture issues such as these the zero sum does not apply; all sides really can win, and indeed if they are ever to be solved, all sides must win.

Inside the GIBR, there is nothing even remotely like carbon credits or any other smoke and mirrors ideas that have been floated in the past. All GIBR reforms that have a financial element are hardcore commerce of substance, and not "fluffy hippies wishlists". There is nothing in the GIBR reforms that wouldn't already have a value in our system of commerce if it had been thought of before now; all of it is based on existing principles. Although this paragraph appears to have derogatory references, they are not. The references appear as they do to illustrate a point and nothing more.
