The AltKuznets Status Highway to Social Nirvana?  Prasad Rao, PhD, Director altkuznetstransact.com     Democracies around the world have grappled with sustainably managing the Society.   Whereas the Real Permanent society plans its PQ across generations and LQ Status into the Next, Democracies, sponsored by Technology Interests and implemented by the Political Coterie, have a much shorter horizon, and a clearly-defined context to operate within. Notably, (Private Pol.Coterie-administered) Democracy, by axing Public Religion out, claims the right to monetize the Status of its members as Mint Gold & Sovereign Currency. It is this (partial) monetization of inter-life PQ Status that fund the Infrastructural conveniences offered Precinct residents. It has, however, been a challenge to define and quantify Individual Status and leverage the same in Democracy beyond an Identity Card. Much as the UIDAI-issued Aadhar Identity is a significant step forward in quanti...

ALTKUZ, DON’T BLEED THE RICH ! ‘0% Tax, 100% Societal Gain’ Prasad Rao, PhD PennState Director, AltKuznets Sustainability Advisors In a per-capita-driven Nominal economy, Environmental Externalities are released in Production, Consumption and in post-consumption Disposal. However, and despite a formal Tax-based governance at the federal, state and Precinct tiers, successive Governments have preferred to focus on Social equity issues to the particular neglect of Environmental externalities. Further, the regulatory onus was directed almost exclusively at Production externalities across decades. Such wanton inattention to Consumer- and Consumption externalities resulted in exacerbation of air, water and land, as well as social externalities, in urban conglomerates where Households reside, grow their family, and consume toward raising their Lifestyle Quality. These externalities cumulate slowly and/or remotely, due which there is limited public cognizance, much less political, until cost-e...

  Real Prerogatives, Nominal Democracy, and ….. Social Sustainability?     Prasad Rao, MTech, PhD Director, AltKuznets Sustainability Advisors   *********************Email  director@altkuznetsadvisors.com  for a pdf   *********** It’s a wonderful world they say… perhaps a fantastic Universe too. But the Universe is all of 9 Dimensions, so how do we reconcile the Nominal Democracy that operates in the 3G3D space around us? This apparently, is an esoteric issue that bears no relevance to the Sustainability theme that AltKuznets is staked in… or is it? Most all of us are aware Sustainability is dichotomized in to the Environmental and the Social. And Social Sustainability is all about Democracy and Egalitarian Rights. How then do we reconcile the 9D Galactic with Religion-Real, and the Real-Religion with the Nominal Democracy that operates in the 3G3D? And how could we ensure Citizens of the Nominal Democracy turn in their Real Status-sourced Prerogatives...

Prasad Rao, MTech PhD PennState Director, AltKuznets Sustainability Advisors   Click here for the Biz Sales Office   Construction – both Residential and Commercial, is a primary economic sector worldwide that, beyond adding to the Nation’s GDP, contributes to societal growth, adds value to Businesses, and generates employment. Despite those credentials, the Construction Sector bears the burden of contributing to significant environmental externalities across the spectrum of its inputs, construction-associated pollution, and demolition waste. Construction figures prominently in Climate-change debate and policy priorities for reasons its share in the economic pie, and the externality-intensiveness of income-incremented upgrades to Property assets. In response, Governments worldwide have adopted the ‘Green Building Code’ [1] to incentivize Property Builders and Developers to increment environmental sustainability of their operations. While such Code is legislated and incentivi...

Network Closed-Cycle Conformance…. (…to Upgrade your PE!) Prasad Rao, MTech, PhD PennState Director, AltKuznets Sustainability Advisors Click here for the Biz Sales Office For decades, the Capital markets that valued Firm Equities, focussed unvaryingly on expanding Markets, Sales Volumes, Revenues and Profits. Then came Costs, Innovation and Industry Concentration. Other determinants of Market valuation, ratios and measures followed – Net Reserves, Tax Efficiency, Ad Effectiveness, Investor Awareness, so on and so forth. Sustainability took a back seat, and when it come in to focus, it leaned more to the Social than Environmental Sustainability. In other words, more of Corporate Social Responsibility and the less of Climate Change. It is indeed fortuitous that Governments, with a longer foresight due the responsibility of ensuring the safety and sustainability of its people, invested in R&D that yielded the Renewable Technologies of the day. However, and despite the various Renewab...

An FV Finance-mediated Recycling Policy: A Proposal Prasad Rao, MTech PhD. ,  Director A ltKuznets Sustainability Advisors director@altkuznetsadvisors.com Purchase a PDF Copy from AltKuznets Biz Sales Office I ntroduction T he global Nominal economy, with price-based competition and PE-based arbitrages in the Capital markets, has cumulated externalities in all three media. And though much attention focuses on Climate Change and its all too evident manifestations in Polar Melting, Forest Fires and Floods, the enlarging landfills of Plastics and other wastes are just as significant a concern for their multifarious impacts on Humanity and beyond . Conventional non-market and market-policies have had a limited impact on the enlarging crisis, and it is opportune to seek more drastic, innovative policies facilitated by technological progress in other fields, notably. The Recycling Market Recycling has assumed significant proportions in econom ies where competition imp...
