Leveraging Data Centers
Have you heard of Naomi Klein’s book Shock Doctrine? In it, she exposes a strategy that large corporations use that she named “Disaster Capitalism”. Naomi’s reporting is that corporations create strategies to leverage large natural or financial disasters. They have plans ready for the next Hurricane Katrina, LA Fires or 9/11. It’s a way to buy up resources cheaply or use the emotional charge to pass legislation that may pass in a “non emergency” setting.
Using that logic, could WE also create strategies on how to leverage future emergencies to pass Wellbeing Economy oriented policies? Could we create a game plan to acquire land?
As a thought experiment, we are hosting a community discussion about Data Centers. Given the strong reaction to Data Centers, how might we leverage a situation like this to get additional Wellbeing Economy legislation passed? What would those policies be?
Like most of our discussions, this will not be recorded and we are not here to give you answers, but to ask questions that generate intriguing discussion.
Come meet other members of the WEAll CA community and let us tap into your data (brain data, that is!)
