From the Entropy of Technosphere Waste to Peace Through Eco-Engineering

By Victor Gladun

Technosphere waste is not merely an environmental problem. It is the underlying cause of most modern conflicts. As long as the economy remains linear ("take-use-dispose"), the struggle for resources has become inevitable. And wherever there is a struggle for resources, tanks will appear sooner or later. This book proposes a different path forward. Drawing on three principles-the circular economy as a global economy, nature-inspired technologies as its foundation, and, finally, peace itself as a national ideal-the author demonstrates how waste can be transformed from a source of entropy and hostility into the foundation for global cooperation. In this book, you'll find: a thermodynamic model of the linear economy and a map of Russia's structural traps; a comparative analysis of the profitability of waste recycling under different key interest rates; 10 technological solutions-from digital material passports to green hydrogen; specific examples of countries and cities that are already building the global economy today by closing waste loops.
