She has proved that it is not the form of management that causes environmental problems, but rather large-scale exploitation. In doing so, she has discredited the hypothesis of the tragedy of the commons, which was never based on evidence.

The word "finally" makes it seem that Aristides Sousa Mendes work was not recognized by Portugal. Maybe it hadn't been officially recognized until now, but we are very proud of his actions.

The tragedy of tragedy the commons is that it is not based on evidence. Elinor Ostron won the nobel prize by proving that the commons are sustainable most of the time. Things only become unsustainable when those who exploit the land have n

For the 700MHz area what are the diferences in speed compared to 4G LTE?

I think there are benefits but they don't justify the costs and the associated disadvantages. Ivan Illich said that the faster we can go, the further away things get.For example if we all have cars we will prepare the environment for

Gains in efficiency normally cause increases in consumption: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_paradox We should focus on how not to get into this paradox.

We shouldn't counter-argument against something by saying there are worse things. Just because there are worse things does not mean that less bad things do not matter, especially since we have to reduce our carbon emissions substantial

Thanks for the information. I know there are other things that consume more energy, but this is indicative of Jevons' paradox. When we have the choice between efficiency and productivity we choose the second. We could be replacing 4G t

Bandwidth or transfer the idea remains. We already have a very short attention span and we have many companies fighting for this finite resource.For example, we have companies that are using casino strategies in games for children. Increasi

The question is, do we really need more bandwidth? What I see is that we're already swamped with the amount of information reaching our cell phones. Our attention is also a limited resource.

by lcam84 6y ago
That's my opinion also. 4G is good enough, it consumes not only less material resources but also our atention that is a scarse resource also.

How much power does a 5G base station consume compared to a 4G? From what I understand, more stations will be needed for this technology. The European Union has been talking about digitisation and green new deal for economic recovery, but i

Although working fewer hours can mean more work (or at least a greater distribution of work), producing on a smaller scale is much more efficient than producing on a larger scale. This is due to Borsodi's law which states that as the c

I understand, and I would continue with this strategy if it were possible. However, it is not, everything that grows exponentially will eventually collapse. The Club of Rome, a multidisciplinary group of scientists, published the book &quot

Having more time on our hands can reduce consumption, for example, we can make our food instead of going to the restaurant or take away. We may have more time for the family and thus spend less on nursing homes or kindergartens. This is jus

It may be fruitless, but we have to talk about it. We have a growth addiction that threatens to deplete the planet's resources. Real solutions like working from home, working less, putting real taxes on externalities, reduce the scale

I agree with you, remote work has many problems and one of them is the possibility to become tiresome the interactions at a distance. It can however have several ecological advantages, and if well managed it can be a way to strengthen famil

You will start to see many articles degrading remote work. Remote work is too efficient to this economic system. We need to spend time on traffic and restaurants. As we saw Jorge W Bush at the moment of crisis asking citizens to consume, I

Honestly, maybe we do not have to move all the industries but they make sense at least in the current dimension. For example, I found out that my country, Portugal has the highest number of houses per inhabitant (6 million houses for 10 mil

We need to understand that this large scale economy is very fragile. We need to reinvest in antifragile local communities. And no, I'm not talking about of going back to dark ages just to reduce the scale, maybe to the levels of 30 yea

Yes in fact the 43 days is in stanby but I don't use the phone for anything else, so I thought it would take more than a few hours between charges. I thought that the difference in battery time between old and new mobile phones was due

Until we solve the cobalt problem we should keep our tech equipment. This is a very strong argument even if you hate it.

I recently bought a Nokia 800 Tough to have internet at home. It is advertised as having up to 43 days on stand by but if you connect 4G with internet sharing, the battery lasts about 5 hours. I wonder what will happen with 5G.

The undeniable reasons for not going ahead with 5G: - It will contribute to the planned obsolescence. There we're going to get insatiable with what we have and pay a ton of money for a new mobile phone model, this on account of the exp
