Hydrogen dilemmas- not just a question of constraints

Just a quick model to put the major arguments around the use and the source for hydrogen into perspective. We need to transform industries like the steel production away from fossil fuels towards use of green hydrogen. In order to shift they need supply. A useful source would be a domestic supply from times when we produce more than 100% of the needed electric power by renewables. However, the capacities for electrolysis would remain unused in times with no surplus of renewable power generation. But if we import hydrogen we have little use for our energy surplus. If we slow down our transition towards renewables in favour for imported hydrogen the world would risk constraints (materials, building capacities a ...»

Economy from a systems perspective p9

... still work in progress and soon more .... On my vacation I intended to complete my reading of Kate Raworth's "Doughnut Economics". I looked at this concept many years ago and wasn't fascinated by it but I have come across it several times in different projects since then so I decided to take a second look. I watched her TED talk and I really like her. Still, the concept I find disappointing though I haven't read the complete book, yet. I think it is a normative approach to rethink economics but in order to change the economy we have to understand its driving forces and find systemic levers for a change. It is not enough to know that we go beyond the limits, that the GDP is a fatal measure, etc.. We need r ...»

Wertschöpfung von Unternehmen

Wertschöpfung von Unternehmen - http://KNOW-WHY.NET https://know-why.net/model/CfoOcWIKpqZHgIqnEb1hI6w…  Kleines Modell auf die Frage, ob nicht auch die Lebenszeit, die Arbeitnehmer*innen investieren, gegengerechnet werden muss, wenn Unternehmen ihre Wertschöpfung preisen


The Ukrainian political and economic context

It has to do with removing Putin and defining a new Russia, but also with the possibility of a China that risks its isolation from the west and at the same time trying to reign the rest of the world through its strategic global resource and development policies. It has to do with a de-globalization, less efficient though more regional and resilient economies, loss of material wealth but gain of quality of life, social equality, and unfortunately a possible trade-off of arms races and climate change mitigation. A possible lever could be bridging values other than material wealth. So, without it seeming to be a descriptive model let us start the exploration using the four KNOW-WHY-Questions: what leads directly ...»

How to make Russia great again - and save Ukraine

It is a collaborative model - please edit it. Sanctions alone end in a balancing feedback loop but with the right narrative over working chanels it could lead to a removal of Putin! Narrative should be something like “ Ukrainians are brothers and sisters, the world wants to partner with Russia - Putin exploits Russia for his mad interests.” There is much more explanation to give to this model - I will add to it or you may edit it and place comments within the model using the "D".


HIDP for couples/families - general structure

Happiness can be planned! According to evolutionary meta systemic logic (KNOW-WHY-Thinking) everything needs to be integrated to adopt to its environment, and yet developing to adopt to change or beat the competition. Our emotions are there to let us strive for integration or development. If we now reflect on what provides us with feelings of integration or jeopardises these feelings and do so also for the feeling of development we can easily see what we have and what we lack. If we then continue to ask what leads to more or less of it we should end up with concrete steps to take in order to be happier.  Developing a so called Holistic Integration and Development Plan (HIDP) I have successfully planned my hap ...»
