A big emphasis that my nation takes is to recycle, reuse, reclaim, or compost EVERYTHING! We don't have trash (And we also don't need as much raw material- especially if fertility rates stay around 2.0).

URBE can work however we want it to. I think it is best if the URBE has no power over the nations and has no leader. I think it should just be nations (and independent communities) who would make up the Union. By having this union, we could potentially have our economies emerge together. This is a safe thing to do because for those nations that have RBEs, they already have most of waht they need provided by localized sustainable systems. So really the URBE is all about addressing the issue of scarcity and anything else that is troubling our economies.

Federico, what are your ideas on this kind of Union? And Cinder, what do you think the requirements should be to join the union- other than simply being an RBE?

I think it's essential that every nation has to be libertarian- in terms of civil liberties. I think every nation must maintain a high standard of living for ALL of its citizens. I think every nation must make sure that education, specifically in science (importantly environmental, behavioral, and biological sciences), resource based economics, and other essential things.The nations must also be non-interventionist. There also has to be room for people to participate in their communities.

What are your guys thoughts? I don't want to be the only one calling the shots XD - We are all equal here :)
