I began my 7 part blog series in 2021.  I was interrupted by some fraudsters stealing intellectual property.  Done. Finally here is part 7.  Some Answers. What is the answer to global leadership playing catch up? What is the answer to the displacement occurring due to climate change? What is the answer to the resource management across the world? Well it turns out the answer is finding a way forward together. That's what the Archipelago is all about. It takes different communities from across the world, with diverse backgrounds and cultures and takes the commonalities forward. Some Irish people in Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland both identified with the Archipelago.  There was a trade channel set up for them to interact in the Archipelago. It turns out, that the Archipelago helped bring people from the Northern Ireland together with people from the Republic of Ireland. It turns out Eire is a good idea.  It turns out Eire identifies with UK, and it has many commonalities with the UK, so it wanted to be part of it again.  All because of the Archipelago. What about Global Leadership playing catch up? Turns out that the American senators had a lot to learn about farming from the Papua New Guinea chiefs.  Incredible changes can happen when people are encouraged to discuss their common interests. The twinning of the villages with the cities helped. It turns out there is a lot to learn from everyone, no matter how remotely they are located. Leadership is everywhere, so all it takes is a little curiosity. A little stepping out of our comfort zones, to learn about the three sisters say, and we have a new food supply from beans, corn and squash, and we have protein from vegetables.  A sustainable food supply for the world. What about displacement due to climate change? The answer for this is not easy.  But one of the best ways to help is to prevent displacement in the first place? But it's out of our control.  Well we made it hotter.  I think we can reduce the global temperature by reducing the co2 emissions.  Drastically.  This will have the impact of less flash weather storms, and less displacement. The climate initiative is one of the initiatives to deal with displacement in the Archipelago. Not in depth answers to the various questions brought up in the previous posts, in the series.   But some inklings that there is a way forward, with various initiatives. The sustainable development goals, the UN devised are good indicators of where we are as a planet, or in our own separate countries.
