Carbon-Negative Chocolate and the New Realm of Ecosystemic Investing. We will present new ecosystemic investment opportunities and facilitate activities on systems-thinking for economic regeneration and financial permaculture. Our goal is to develop clear permaculture business language to capture and direct the large capital investments that are available whether from private or public sectors.

• World oil peaking is going to happen, and will likely be
“abrupt and revolutionary”.
• Oil peaking will adversely affect global economies,

• Government intervention will be required, but
economic upheaval is not inevitable.

backed by defective loans,
unsaleable assets, and positions in
failed companies?quot;
“...the stage is now set for
a major dollar collapse.”
