    I think by redefining its motivation. Instead of currency markets tracking just productivity and output, we also track environmental and social metrics like average lifespan and carbon output. That forces acquisition to be accompanied by responsible ownership.

    100 years ago the world moved on from the Gold standard to fiat currency, if we can do that we can also move on from what is more like a Consumption standard to a Caretaker standard.
