Earth Intelligence Network
The Last HOPEHackers on Planet Earth
New York City, 18 July 2008
Brief with Notes at www.oss.net/EIN
Key Negative Trends• Collapse of complex societies: catastrophe from disaster
for lack of resilience & adaptation as well as corruption
• Acts of Man creating Acts of God: natural disasters will be more frequent & more severe as we cement more land
• Acceleration of Earth’s Demise: changes that used to take 10,000 years now take THREE years; absent Real Time Science and Real Time Public Policy (online, deliberative, transparent) we die
• Shock Capitalism continues to loot the Earth and has turned USA into a Third World country—UAE (Dubai) is the new Switzerland
• Political Corruption ascendant—44 dictators, both Republican and Democratic parties are “running on empty” and very corrupt, elites in towns across America have sold us out
Key Positive Trends• Wealth of networks: fortune at the bottom of the
pyramid, peace through connectivity, wealth from sharing information
• GreenMind: Biomimicry, beneficial bacteria, green chemistry,
• Moral capitalism: natural capitalism, green to gold, cradle to cradle, home rule, eat local, end of corporate personality
• Democratic Information: “true costs” at point of sale
• Left Hand of God: faith-based dialog and diplomacy, obvious need to end of our support to 42 of 44 dictators, shunning of cults
• Peer to Peer People Power: from the Tao of Democracy to localized Wisdom Councils to Blessed Unrest to the Clock of the Long Now.
Good & Bad News• Good News: it does not matter who wins, the
Citizen’s Summit in Chicago in February 2009 could set the agenda and demand compliance. Reuniting America has 110 million members from across the spectrum, and is growing. Independence!
• Bad News: nothing the USA does in the next four years will matter UNLESS we can create the EarthGame™ model that shows Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Russia, Venezuela, and Wild Cards like the Congo, how to create seven billion billionaires without eradicating diversity.
• We the People have to think & act strategically.

WHAT IS Earth Intelligence Network?• EIN is a strategic vision for waging peace and
assuring prosperity with dignity for all• EIN is an infinitely scalable concept of operations for
connecting dots to dots, dots to people, and people to people
• EIN is an information technology platform for creating the World-Brain (net, org, edu, com)
• EIN is an analytic framework for creating public intelligence in the public interest
• EIN is a tool for empowering the public everywhere, ending “rule by secrecy” with online transparent budgets at every level of governance including global
Non-Partisan Policy
Public Interest Math 101• Cost Republicans $300 million per year to buy
US government from schoolhouse to White House in 1990’s
• Cost to beat them at their own game is $500M– $20 a year from 25 million citizens– $100 a year from 5 million citizens
• This model will scale to rest of world if you build it and show its power to heal all wounds

Ten High-Level Threats
• Poverty• Infectious Disease• Environmental
Degradation• Inter-State Conflict• Civil War
• Genocide• Other Atrocities• Proliferation• Terrorism• Transnational Crime
Every Mission Confronts These Ten Threats One Way or Another—
Avoid Narrow Focus, Always See the Forest, Not Just The Tree in Front of You
Open Sources & Ten Threats• Economic and social threats including 95%
– poverty, 99%– infectious disease and 95%– environmental degradation 90%
• Inter-State conflict 75%• Internal conflict, including 90%
– civil war, 80%– genocide and 95%– other large-scale atrocities 95%
• Nuclear, radiological, chemical, and biological weapons (proliferation) 75%
• Terrorism 80%• Transnational organized crime 80%
On balance, open sources are more than adequate to understand and address the ten high-level threats, but the UN System’s Information Management is not.
Twelve Action Areas
• Agriculture• Diplomacy• Economy• Education• Energy• Family
• Health• Immigration/Migration• Justice• Security• Society• Water
Every Mission Has Narrow Channels and Deep Bureaucracies.
Information Sharing is a Proper Ethical Means for Enhancing Effectiveness.
If Any Action Area is Overlooked, Boss Needs to Know This.

Hackers & Bloggers Rule!To understand the role of reputation in the open-source culture, it is helpful to move from history further into anthropology and economics, and examine the difference between exchange cultures and gift cultures.” "Abundance makes command relationships difficult to sustain and exchange relationships an almost pointless game. In gift cultures, social status is determined not by what you control but by what you give away."
