Digital technologies play a critical role in our daily lives. But massive gaps in access, innovation, equality and wealth, along with hate speech & disinformation divide & degrade our digital world. Current & future generations are counting on us to take action. This September, world leaders will gather for the Summit of the Future to shape a more inclusive, open, free, safe & human-centred digital world – paving the way for #OurCommonFuture. https://bit.ly/SotF2024

With the digital world model, it is impossible to achieve full access, equality and wealth without severely oppressing the populations with taxes and requirements to pay for new modern ways. The massive investment in infrastructure for all that goes with a digital world brings nations to poverty and is unnecessary. One solar flare like we had in 1849 can destroy our electric grid and make our modern ways unusable. We have made a world vulnerable to death and destruction in.many ways. Gardens and food producing pets give us necessary things; we can build a garden paradise of loving helpful families and communities from humble ways.
United Nations, The digital age has reshaped our lives, offering immense opportunities yet posing significant challenges like inequality and misinformation. As we look towards the Summit of the Future this September, it's clear that our actions today will define tomorrow's digital world. It's not just about technology; it's about ensuring inclusivity, freedom, and safety for all. Let's commit to shaping a digital realm that fosters innovation and equality, where everyone can thrive. Our collective efforts now will pave the way for a more humane and connected future. Together, we can build a digital world that truly serves #ourcommonfuture.

United Nations UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF LIVING BEINGS COEXISTENCE : Life exists in the Universe. The living beings aware of their existence would like life to be perennial. Article 1 - FINITE BIOSPHERE ANY ORGANISATION SHALL ▪ exist, ▪ be designed, ▪ be capable to adapt itself, in order to empower the perenniality of the living beings existing in a finite viable context. Article 2 - TO ACT ACTION OF ALL SHALL BE ▪ PERMANENT, ▪ RELEVANT for oneself and for the coexistence of living beings in a given ecosystem, ▪ DIVERSIFIED with a maximum FREEDOM of orientation. Article 3 - TO HAVE DISTRIBUTION FOR ALL SHALL ▪ cover our NEEDS exactly, without growth nor decrease (= no one dies of hunger, cold or mild disease), ▪ fairly VALUE our action (action duration, involvement, results, skills, responsibility), ▪ RESPECT the limits of resources in a given finite viable context to allow their perennial renewal. Next step over the decades to come: INVENT A HUMAN ORGANIZATION WHICH BY DEFAULT ENSURES THE PERENNIALITY OF LIVING BEINGS OVER THE VERY LONG TERM : www.peacenlive.com !

2wTo be fair to its divide, it starts from the disparity of electricity consumed by country and per capita. The renewable energy drive was supposed to be a means to ensure equity in distribution which would lead to its digital applications around the world, but the reality is that the West continues to devour more than their fair share of electricity and, with it, all the minerals mined to house them. This skews the amount of on-the-ground benefit countries with mines for renewable technologies receive, compared to the environmental losses burdened on future generations of their peoples, if they continue to play the Western capitalist game, as Western demand will continue to rise to provide zero correlation between production and global distribution. This is further exacerbated by the Western pet project of Large Language Models, which provide comical benefit at best, and whose inherent factual errors need to be hidden from the mainstream within the catchphrase of AI, all whilst consuming vasts amounts of energy and the resources to generate and store them, leading to their IT corporations failing climate targets since their adoption. None of this is a pathway to global equity rather a digital iteration of Western capitalism ...
