1 Micro can Make a Massive Difference
but this is an exponential investment taking years to develop, and most rich peoples media give no voice let alone freedom of voice to grassroots up solutions
Future capitalism: This is a slightly different tack from my other Yunus threads. At the start of the year I paid for 1000 of Yunus' new book to form a 1000 network club- feedback keeps on flowing in but in its own time warps. Over time some stories seem to stand out more and more about what Yunus has done of the last 30 years as well as what he emans by saying his next 5 years could link together something even bigger than microcredit if everyone who Future-Capitalism-Could marry up global market leaders and grassroots' deepest organisations in focused socila business experiments had at least one true go . I will try in the next few weeks to make the top 20 of these clear.

1 Yunus Microcredit Certification Systems compound far more communal depth than any old microcredit system. His old friends and advisers are asking him to be more proactive in Grameen co-branding in microcredit sectors - eg Grameen America, Grameen Credit Agricole. This set of 3 videos provides one 10 minute report on this

Clinton Bangladesh fast growing nation because of Yunus/Grameen
TheGreenChildren (Yunus pop group) and friends are Growing microcredit in Guatemala
Whole Foods supermarkets is one of Grameen's latest social business partners, and expects to reach half a million with microcredit in under 3 years

2 Fallibility Capitalism half develops humanity today , worse such
inconvenient truth is exponentially crashing - do we really what this generation's inheritance to our kids to be a Big Brother world at best and extinction at worst?

Humanity can develop so much more if we practice with Yunus' community-up models. After 30 years of designing grassroots up system of microcredit, Dr Yunus believes that communities worldwide should ask what sorts of systems do we want in your midst for credit and for other services that give people productivity opportunities to make a difference. His new book interfaces various sustanable ,maps providing opportunities for all ages, and diversities to experiment
