Imagine 100 innovations that could generate 100.000.000 jobs over the next 10 years.

It is as simple, as beneficial, as amazing THAT IT WILL CHANGE THE WORLD

Introducción

In the current global economy state based on consumption, natural resources expense and planet extreme pollution, a revolutionary idea comes out: The Blue Economy. The Blue Economy is intended to be a viable alternative approach introduction to the existing economic model through sustainable production systems based on the observation of the ecosystems. This new economic model born with the conviction that Humanity requires companies that meet the basic needs of everyone, with the resources that we already have, using them as a waterfall system in order to avoid damaging the environment more. The sustainable development starts by investing more in the introduction of innovations that allow multifunctional business and generate jobs.

Introduction

Do not ask for more to Earth. Do more what

the Earth provides with.

Climate change is caused not by the science

but by the current economic model.

Now there is no money and therefore the

current system does not work, we must go for

a model involving less invest and generating

more profits.

Gunter Pauli: author of The Blue Economy

The Blue Revolution reflects the innovative spirit that inspires the movement of change towards a sustainable economic model which is valid for all. For this reason, its presentation is coming on the hands of the creator and promoter of the Blue Economy: Gunter Pauli.

LAS GAVIOTAS (THE GULLS - COLOMBIA) From 8000 hectares of grasslands wastes that had suffered 450 years of slash and burn agriculture, these lands were transformed into a rich and green jungle, a oasis of peace, full of lush biodiversity that includes over 250 species of tropical flora, 90% of Amazonian origin.

Water, resins and biofuels contribute to cash flow. The development of Las Gaviotas has a positive impact on housing, health, energy provision, the employment and food security.

Jobs actually generated locally: 2,000

Potential jobs globally: 15 million

Preliminary Topics

SILK (GREAT BRITAIN, AND LAOS AND GERMANY) It has been demonstrated the potential of silk to replace metals in high performance as titanium.

If silk replaces the stainless steel and titanium used in the manufacture of domestic utensils, we would reduce the accumulation in dumps of these metals from the subsoil.

Since silkworm feeds mulberry leaves, extensive plantations of these trees in arid zones, could provide food, energy, employment and soil regeneration. Its applications have proven viable in the medical area and will soon be expanded to consumer goods.

The jobs related to reforestation could rise to 1.25 million per 100,000 hectares.

Preliminary Topics

ENERGY FROM DOWN (SOUTH KOREA JAPAN) By observing both the decomposition of plant

remains that ants stored and the nutrient rich

substrate provide for the growth of plants, it was also

found out that it also heats the ground due to the

emitted heat.

This inspired a heating system for greenhouses

which heats the ground instead of the air.

This is a method that reduces the energy´s

consumption and dispenses with the classical heating

in greenhouses. After this system where improved by

using fine carbon fibers, its application´s field was

extended beyond the agriculture.

Potential local jobs: 50,000

Preliminary Topics

CONVERSION OF THE PULP IN PROTEIN (HONG KONG AND COLOMBIA) The idea is to convert discarded biomass by plantations of coffee in a product providing food security, getting even shiitake mushroom production on oak crushed by using coffee waste as substrate. The substrate used could also serve as high quality feed.

Both the fruiting bodies of fungi sold for human consumption as remaining mycelium used as feed for animals, generate food safety and increase revenues available to through exports.

Jobs actually generated locally: 10,000 Potential jobs globally: 50 million, but could reach 100 million.

Preliminary Topics

LIVING FILTER (SWEDEN) It is about to control particles in suspension from the ion and dust, including carbon monoxide. The technique is based on the forest ecosystem model.

To clean the air of a building, a filter that mimics the rain in the jungle is used.

Whether you apply to offices or schools as airports, this technique is favored by the optimal use of air flows and humidification of the areas with plants.

The low energy cost and maintenance competes with the cost of the ornamentals plants common in these locations. Jobs actually generated locally: 10,000

Preliminary Topics

MICRO NUTRIENTS AND BIOFUELS A FROM CO2 (BRAZIL) The goal of this project was to teach farmers how to cultivate spirulina in local lagoons. The sales generated by this crop provided very necessary incomes to farmers. Spirulina is offered to families as a nutritional supplement, which contributes to eradicate malnutrition.

After the initial success, this program expanded to include the absorption of CO2: by using the infrastructure available in a local thermal plant, algae were grown to produce biodiesel. The production of biodiesel beside of power plants is a reasonable accommodation of logic ecosystem to the model of industrial production.

Jobs actually generated locally: 100 (including a dozen academic positions). Potential jobs globally: 2.5 million

Preliminary Topics

FOOD SAFETY AND HEALTH (BENIN) The Songhai Center is a proof that it is possible to create a farm and processing food integrated center in peri-urban areas of Africa. The food security draft follows the successful re-use of nutrients and energy´s model. The main

products generated by the flow of money become both the food for local consumption and the exportation.

All offal from the slaughterhouse serves as food for a fly larvae farm.

These turn into food for both quails and fishes.

A potential source of income added are the enzymes extracted from the larvae. The fact is that a fraction of current cost could be provided to pharmaceutical sector companies for the manufacture of medicine (healing).

Jobs actually generated locally: 30 Potential jobs globally: 5 million.

Preliminary Topics

INTEGRATED PRODUCTION BIOSYSTEMS OF BEER (NAMIBIA AND UNITED STATES) From the beer factory waste, this ingenious cascade of nutrients integrates the five kingdoms of nature and increases the income of the beer through livestock, cultivation of mushrooms, fish farming and biogas production.

This cascading model provides food, recycles water, creating jobs and reported additional income from the sale of bread, sausage, and mushrooms in the local market.

The number of jobs created by micro breweries existing is estimated at 250. If all breweries in the world turned their waste into nutrients, it will generate another million jobs, at least.

Potential jobs globally: 12.5 million

Preliminary Topics

COLOURING WITHOUT PIGMENTS (GREAT BRITAIN AND AUSTRIA) A platform based on the natural physical offers a wide range of optical applications without any pigment. Most of the time, they come from heavy metals.

This domain of optical effects has been successfully implemented in the design of security systems for tickets bench.

Getting color effects without pigment is a breakthrough that will impact significantly in the paint industry.

Teijin (under the brand Morphotex) and BASF have perfected the manufacture of colored fibers free of pigments.

Potential 2,000 jobs

Preliminary Topics

AIR CONDITIONING WITHOUT EQUIPMENT (JAPAN) Zebra provides additional insight about technologies that will reduce and even eliminate the need for isolation in many parts of the world by controlling the surface temperature.

To save energy, architects recommend insulate the walls and roof of a building in order to block the transfer of heat or cold. Both polyurethane or glass fiber are used by using materials extracted from the mines and processed with a high cost of energy.

Zebra teaches us that taking advantage of predictable physics laws to reduce heat or cold outdoors supposes both less need of chemicals products and expensive facilities heating or cooling.

The mere thermal effect of the surfaces black and white reduces the temperatures internally and allows energy savings, estimated in the 20%. Potential jobs: 10,000.

Preliminary Topics

A SUSTAINABLE ISLAND (EL HIERRO - SPAIN)

People from El Hierro island have rejected different proposals such as the installation of a satellite launcher or a radar station for, instead, seeking other alternatives which satisfy their most important criteria: to provide a sustainable future rich on opportunities for next generations.

They have opted for 19 Blue Innovations. Both public and private sectors have inverted the necessary money to turn the island into an entirely self-sufficient place in terms of water and energy.

All crops will be adjusted to ecological standards. All farm´s waste will be dedicated to

growing mushrooms. The excess substrate will become compost, or will be used for feeding animals.

In less than a decade, all island´s cars will

be electric and all energy requirements will be satisfied by using the energy of the ocean waves, through a device moving like giant kelps.

Potential jobs: 100% of the population of the island.

Preliminary Topics

THE CONVERSION OF A COUNTRY (BHUTAN) This small country from the Himalayas is facing the disappearance of their main source of revenue due to climate change: hydroelectric power generated by glaciers, the pressure of waste and consumerism.

A portfolio of innovations will convert all agricultural wastes in bioplastics.

The production of silk as a raw material will generate a new healthcare industry and, at the same time, will maintain its robust soils.

The wind, a rich source of local power, is captured by tiny turbines.

The design and construction of buildings based on energy savings goes along with the sustainability.

Preliminary Topics

TERMITES, THE MASTERS OF THE FLOW (SWEDEN) This project has been inspired in the domain of temperatures, humidity and atmospheric pressure based on the current flow that the termites have perfected with the design of chimneys where the air is heated and rises in a predictable way, creating a pressure differential within the nest.

The nest is connected to its environment by tiny underground tunnels which allow the entrance of outside air flows to compensate the pressure.

Based on these studies, it is possible to design energy-efficient buildings which heat or cool, whenever necessary, providing welfare to its residents without having to stay in a room hermetically closed. When no air circulates rapidly, bacteria and harmful microbes proliferate. In such a space, a simple sneezing means that we all will sick.

Preliminary Topics

AN ISLAND FLOATING IN A DREAM (GOTLAND) Getting into the twenty-first century, a small but remarkable island floating in the Baltic Sea began to look for different ways to thrive in a globalized economy. It seemed that the only option for it was tourism, with almost one million visitors a year. But the will of the citizens was to ensure a future for the succeeding generations which, otherwise, would abandon the island.

They conceived an innovative solution that took advantage of the flow of nutrients generating employment and added value at the same time, by producing one simple product: carrot cake.

A delicious recipe was prepared and the cakes are frozen after baking. Tarts from Gotland are in great demand in Sweden and markets as far away as Asia.

This precipitated the construction of a classification and storage center where each variety, from baby carrots to carrot juice is sold four times the price of the size standard.

The shredded pulp is not discarded because it is an ideal food for pigs.

The whole operation (storage, sorting, processing, packaging and sale to market segments, such as cakes frozen) is entirely powered by wind energy.
