Is it necessary to go into detail? ? I get tired of roundabout explanations! ? by 天風 20231203

This is Tenpu, the blog owner. When I have the opportunity to receive an explanation from someone, some people give me a roundabout explanation. Tenpu himself has been criticized for being too roundabout in his explanations, so I feel some sympathy for those people. This time, the theme is what's the point of being roundabout?

Recently, I feel that 　Tenpu has become much better at explaining things . After all, teaching others takes a lot of getting used to, and if you don't get into the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cub. "Shatter it when it hits you. Snorlax, charge!"

Learn business administration and marketing! I, who don't even know the difference between economics and business management, push forward.

　When I first started teaching others, I was quite a timid guy. The people watching around me were like, ``Hey, you idiot. What are you so nervous about? If you want to go to the bathroom, turn right there. Don't divulge anything.''

I think 　the reason I was able to become the teacher character was because I was able to break out of my shell .

　For example, if you are asked to give a speech in front of people, most people will probably decline. I also like teaching others, but I absolutely refuse to give a speech. "If you want me to give a speech, raise your salary! If you don't meet my demands, go on strike."

　Here, the person's experience value changes depending on whether he or she gives a speech or not . Taking the first step is difficult for everyone. By taking a step forward, you may become good at something you thought you were bad at, and you may be able to make a living doing it.

I think 　the most important thing when teaching others is empathy . I'm not that good at teaching either. However, whenever I have the opportunity to teach someone, I just take the initiative to do so. Therefore, empathy becomes important in terms of putting yourself in the shoes of the person being taught.

　If you're in a position to teach someone, you'll want them to break down what you don't understand and explain it to them . If the person playing the teacher can clearly explain what they have learned and what they are having trouble with, the person playing the student will also feel a sense of familiarity.

　However, there is a person who loves studying who plays the role of a teacher, and is a genius who can know 10 by listening to 1 at a certain rate, and cannot understand the suffering of those who cannot understand 1. This means that a so-called great player cannot be a great manager , so you will need to put yourself in the opponent's shoes.

　That's why empathy is an important element when teaching others, but there are some people who use this ability too much and end up having to explain things in a roundabout way . The pronoun is Tenpu.

　On this blog, there were many opportunities for Tenpu to explain something. I think that Tenpu explained everything in detail in order to avoid any holes in the explanation. Many readers may have thought so. "You just have to give me a rough explanation. You don't have to break it down to the molecular level," he said.

　As with anything, when details are explained, your attention becomes so focused that you lose sight of the big picture. It's like, "Don't see the forest for the trees, look at me." If this happens, your concentration will decrease, and you will become increasingly bored with explanations, creating a vicious cycle.

　I think Tenpu myself even mentioned things that didn't matter when he explained it. That's something I need to reflect on.

　People who try to explain in detail are probably anxious. ``I'm afraid that my lack of explanation will lead to misunderstandings,'' he said. Certainly, getting every detail correct is necessary in the world of science.

Just be roughly correct! ! Let's always improve by using PDCA! !

　However, when we live in society or work, what we should be looking for is that if something is generally correct, there is no need to be correct in every detail . Society does not require such detailed accuracy. However, all you have to do is achieve your goal.

　This blog is also a process of trial and error. How can I get my readers interested? How can I make reading your blog more comfortable? One of the most recent challenges is to improve the ability to talk about details .

　After all, PDCA is necessary both when working and when cutting hair. PDCA means improvement, so to speak. Last time I asked for a haircut at a barber shop, I got a really unique and fancy haircut, so now I'm going to go to the hair salon, and the day I'll go back to heaven is near.

　The articles on this blog are so different from what they were originally, a month ago, that they are now. If you have a chance, please compare them.

　After all, repeating improvements is important in encouraging a person's growth. Up until now, I would have explained the PDCA in detail, saying things like, ``Why PDCA? The P stands for Plan.'' I would have annoyed the readers.

However, PDCA　here refers to improvement. If I say this clearly, the reader will be satisfied with the story.

　That's why this article is also about Hotaru no Hikari. The ability to communicate to others is called communication ability, and it is a business skill that is more valuable than any office skill. This ability is of course essential in everyday life, and it is also a magic bullet that can dramatically change your life with just a few improvements .

　To be honest, Tenpu is also not confident in his communication skills. However, as you work through the numbers, you will eventually find your own way.

　I hope that readers will also try using the PDCA cycle, not only in communication but also in other areas. If you keep making improvements, you may find a new you. See you soon.

Do you want to take a walk early in the morning? The city at 5 AM is a different world! Become a giver who is grateful to everyone by Tenpu

This is Tenpu, the blog owner. Waking up early in the morning feels good, but if you wake up early, it might be nice to take a walk outside. Walk forward as you hear the chirping of birds. Isn't that a good thing?

The cityscape in the early morning is a different world.

　Tempu gets up very early. I usually set my alarm to wake up around 5 a.m., but the time I wake up varies depending on the day. I wake up earlier than 5am.

　I often go to convenience stores in the dark. I don't have a routine like buying breakfast or buying a newspaper, so I value how I feel at the time. It's a short walk to the convenience store, but it's very quiet at 5am .

　There were hardly any people walking, no cars passing by, and I occasionally saw people running. The always bustling streets look like they are in another world, making it a very surreal scene. There is only a clerk at the convenience store, so it's literally a private store.

　When I see this early morning scenery, I imagine that I want to get on the first train and go to some faraway city. After I woke up today, I wrote two blog posts and went to the convenience store.

　Somehow, I have a faint hope that days like this will continue. By mid-September, the early mornings are getting chilly, and I can't go out wearing short sleeves. However, if you go out during the day and wear a stylish long-sleeved sweatshirt, you'll end up sweating.

　It's a delicate season. Tenpu is also at a strange age. I think it would be a good idea to buy some hot tea and have breakfast in the park . It's free. Anyway, I have a free personality.

　That's why an early morning walk can give you a different feeling than usual. I feel very emotional. It makes me want to think about some sort of philosophical philosophy of life. Where did I come from and where am I heading ?

　As I write this article, I have just returned from the convenience store, but I am getting used to blogging. I think the good thing about writing is that it helps me organize my feelings . Writing a blog means having a dialogue with yourself before having readers read it.

　What am I interested in? What do you want to convey? what do you want to get? I have mixed feelings. However, I think I should be grateful for the opportunity to write in a diary like this.

　Live with gratitude for everything . Thank everyone around you. Gratitude makes a person grow.

Giver taking an early morning walk

　I read an article on Yahoo News yesterday that said givers are the least successful . A giver is someone who gives to others without expecting anything in return. In other words, he just gives and gets exploited.

　It also said that successful people are selfish assholes who only care about their own interests. Selfish people often get the job done. Even if he doesn't interact well with those around him, he is good at getting around in the world and is good at his job. Therefore, he can achieve social success even if he is not liked.

　``I don't want to believe that he is successful.'' However, we must not be pessimistic here. Selfish people are successful, but those at the top of society are also givers. In other words, givers are at the social extremes of being either the most successful or the most unsuccessful.

　The news concludes with an invitation to become a giver. It seems like you shouldn't think about your own interests first . Give and give. But not exploited. That can be said to be the rule of success.

　This is a bit off topic, but what I'm trying to say is : Become an early morning walk giver . There is simply no connection between going for an early morning walk and being a giver (lol). The reader must have thought, ``What are you talking about, Tenpu? Are you bloodshot? I'm going to die.'' that's right. Tenpu was bloodshot.

　The correct answer is to be a grateful giver. Tenpu often spews out beautiful things. But don't let that put you off. This is a matter of consciousness .

　After all, if you talk about beautiful things, it will be imprinted on your subconscious mind, and you will unconsciously act like that beautiful thing. In order to become the person you want to be, you must first talk about who you want to be.

　For that reason, this article was written in the order in which Tenpu came up with it, so it may not have made any sense. However, I'm sure there are some readers out there who will sympathize with me and understand a little bit of what Tenpu is trying to say.

　That's why it's time for the light of fireflies to flow in this article. For readers, I think that the light of fireflies has either become a standard or a habit.

　But first, get into the habit of getting up early in the morning, do something productive like work, and then go even further and get into the habit of taking an early morning walk. If you structure your life in this way , you will eventually notice the small seeds of happiness that appear in your life.

　If you are one of our readers who always oversleep, why not take the plunge and wake up early tomorrow and go for an early morning walk? You'll notice a different streetscape than usual. See you soon.

Looking for a way to earn money that doesn't depend on advertising? I want to be an online consultant! by 天風 20231202

This is Tenpu(天風) from Seito Shijuku blog. The blog owner has always dreamed of becoming a freelancer. It would be ideal if you could make a living through your blog, but the reality is not so easy. So he fantasizes about selling himself as a hobby consultant.

I want to be a consultant

　The blog owner has no experience working at McKinsey, nor does he have any experience as a consultant. However, depending on how you do it, I think it is possible to build a career as an online consultant .

　Above all, the blog owner has a long experience of imitating consultants, whether it's just a hobby or not. Therefore, I believe that the strength of a blog owner is the foresight that allows him to see the general direction , and I fantasize that he is suitable for becoming a management consultant.

　In order to prove my foresight, I think I should tell you what I've been paying attention to lately. I see the possibility that corporate M&A will become more active in the future . In particular, Japanese companies accumulate cash called internal reserves.

Who owns a company's retained earnings?

　I think this will become a key point for the Japanese economy. This retained earnings should originally be funds that should be paid to workers . However, Japanese companies will have to save money to deal with future crises like the Lehman Shock. The objective of dealing with crises is solved by accumulating retained earnings.

　Alternatively, companies will need to deal with uncertainty in anticipation of future trends in the declining birthrate and aging population. The cost of that uncertainty is this retained earnings.

　However, just hoarding money will not increase your money. Whether it's Japanese people or Japanese companies, it may be a national trait that they love saving money . Even if hoarding cash minimizes the risk of losing your savings, you will fall behind other countries that are actively investing and increasing their funds.

　Therefore, if Japanese companies' internal reserves cannot be used to improve workers' wages, they can at least put them to good use by investing. However, it is not wise to simply invest in stocks and aim for dividends or price appreciation profits.

Make indirect investments using retained earnings

　The best way to do this is to use the internal reserves to purchase foreign stocks . Purchasing stocks is called indirect investment. On the other hand, establishing a factory in a foreign country is called direct investment.

　The reason why we recommend indirect investment is that if you set up a factory through direct investment, you may not be able to sell the factory when you want to exit. Not being able to sell easily indicates that it is not possible to quickly respond to an oversupply caused by a sudden drop in demand.

　On the other hand, when purchasing foreign stocks as an indirect investment, there is a risk of losses due to a decline in the stock price, but you can immediately sever the relationship by selling the stocks you have .

　The important thing here is what you get from indirect investment. The most important thing, though it depends on the company, is the technology and know-how of the acquired company. In extreme terms, as long as you can absorb the technology and know-how, you can sell it right away .

　Here, if the stock price does not fluctuate, you can only acquire technology and know-how and make a lot of money.

　However, strictly speaking, you may not even need to worry about the stock price. If you acquire a promising stock that is engaged in a business related to your own company and is developing technology and know-how for a market that will grow in the future, the company that bought the stock will have an opportunity to develop . Here, the rise and fall of the stock price will not be of much concern.

　So, the reason why foreign stocks are good is that foreign stocks are related to the current issue of trade friction between the United States and China. The United States wants China to reduce its trade deficit, but Japan also has a trade surplus with the United States. The problem of trade deficits could be resolved by using foreign currency earned through trade with foreign countries or internal reserves of Japanese companies to purchase foreign stocks .

　For Japan, this is a good deal as it allows you to buy stocks of advanced companies from the superpower United States. So far, I has talked about what he has been paying attention to recently. However, he is also aware of his weaknesses. My weakness is my attention to detail.

My weakness is that he is sloppy.

　As you'll realize as you read this blog, the blog's owner has a rather sloppy personality . A professional is someone who investigates every detail and gives his or her opinion. But I'm too lazy to do that. This can be said to be a fatal flaw in becoming a professional consultant.

　What I am conscious of is creating a framework. Or decide on a major direction. In a company, this would be the job of the manager. However, in order to implement the project, cooperation on the ground is also required.

　In other words, I would not be able to do it alone, and I would need the help of other experts to refine my ideas . This may be possible if it is a large project at the national level. However, if it is a small project at a corporate level, someone who can handle it alone will be required.

　In order for me to work as a professional consultant, he must overcome this barrier.

　That's why I suddenly announced that he wanted to become a consultant. Returning to the beginning of this article, I fantasized about being able to make a living through blogging. However, it is difficult to live solely on blog advertising revenue .

Building a business model that is not based on advertising revenue

　Therefore, I thought that if I could create a business model other than just advertising revenue, the hurdles for his desire to become a freelancer would be lowered. Speaking from my experience, I think the most realistic, but quite difficult, wish is to become a consultant and sell products called ideas through blogging .

　After all, simply writing a blog is not very profitable. So, by adding some originality, I think you can make more money with less effort. After all, it will be difficult to make a living as a freelancer unless you do something that no one else is doing .

　This hope of becoming an online consultant is not the final solution. I should think more intelligently. However, I don't think this is the wrong direction.

　So far I have talked about my passionate feelings, and the number of characters has reached nearly 2,500. Professionalism is here, isn't it? I don't know if this story will hit the spot of laughter among readers. However, it has been proven that if you write it loosely like this , you can easily exceed 2000 characters.

　I won't give up. Professionals never give up. He runs wild towards his dream. See you soon.

About professionalism! Are you tired of writing blogs? what you enjoy is to win by 天風 20231202

 This is Tenpu(天風), the blog owner. Hey there. This time, I would like to talk about my professionalism. In any case, there are many points to reflect on, and I will also talk about improvements and my enthusiasm for the future. This article is a bit long, so please bear with me! !

I was in a bit of pain.

　I previously introduced that the purpose of this blog is to use what I have learned over the years to convey something to the readers . At the same time, I thought I'd be lucky if I could earn some extra pocket money, so I was also working as a raccoon dog.

　Up until now, I had been writing blogs with the motive of wanting to teach, but now that I think about it, he may have been looking at it from a slightly superior perspective to the readers . Somewhere in my heart, I had a vanity that wanted to be seen as smart, and that vanity got in the way of me, making me feel like I had to write a great blog every time, and I was suffering.

　As for the current status of this blog, the number of readers has increased (thank you very much), and we are earning a reasonable number of page views every day. However, I felt pressured to be perfect and struggled under the pressure of having to write every day . Astute readers may have been able to see through my mental state.

　It's been a somber story up to this point, and some readers may be asking you to lend them an oxygen tank because it's too heavy and they're having trouble breathing . So, I would like to move on to a brighter topic from here.

Blogging is for fun

　I made a decision. Enjoy the activity of blogging. And to entertain readers as well. I guess I was being a little too nervous. Blogging should be more like a normal conversation, where you can talk in a relaxed and natural way.

　Tenpu is a perfectionist, but he doesn't mind making mistakes on his blog . There's no one to blame me. Yes, it's okay to make mistakes. However, I would like to maintain professionalism .

　Professionalism is required in order to provide readers with entertainment and ideas through this blog, and to earn even a small amount of money in exchange for useful information. For some people, that professionalism might mean increasing the number of readers by a certain number each month or writing articles every day.

　I also wants to write articles every day, but due to his personal and real life, he may not be able to do so every day. Therefore, above all else, as a professional, I would like to focus on valuing and entertaining my readers, and aim to improve my blogging skills .

Apparently a minimum of 2000 characters is required for SEO.

　My goal for improving my skills in the future is to aim for 2000 characters or more per article. This 2000 characters is said to be the minimum required number from an SEO perspective , and I feel that it is the amount necessary to write a text that is worth reading.

　Ideally, you would need 3,000 characters, but with my skill, writing 3,000 characters every day is still a pain, and some readers may find 3,000 characters too long. First of all, aim for 2000 characters per article. Looking back at my past articles, I think most of them don't reach 1500 characters. It will be approximately 1000 to 1500 characters.

　If you can write 2000 characters, that's a huge leap forward. Of course, it is meaningless unless it is a deep article with 2000 characters. I think the longest article at the moment (September 17, 2019) is `` Applying other people's ideas '' at 2200 characters.

　This article itself is about 1400 characters so far. As for I, I thought I had written quite a bit, but it still doesn't reach 2000 characters.

Let's do everything with heart

　When it comes to valuing and entertaining his readers, I must first and foremost enjoy writing his blog . No one would want to read an article from someone who writes a blog reluctantly.

　If I enjoys writing his blog, that enjoyment will naturally spread to those around him, creating a positive cycle of people coming together. Even if writing were to become my job in the future, the awareness of having fun while writing would be a treasure.

　In the end, it's all about your heart . No matter what you do, your mindset will determine the outcome. If you want to win but expect to lose, you will never win. There is a famous line from a certain anime. "If you give up, the game is over."

　Professionals never give up. It would be unprofessional to abandon your blog halfway through. In that sense, I think it's more important for Watanabe to continue blogging than anything else . No matter what happens, you won't stop blogging, and you won't use your real life as an excuse. This can be considered professionalism.

Starting your blog from the first step

　The journey of blogging is still long. Life is still long. The road to Rome is still long, but each step is important. I hope that I can take this step by step with my readers and walk together with them.

　That's why I reached 2000 characters. Congratulations 2000 characters. Writing 2000 characters every day is difficult. And I still has strength in his shoulders. I think if he could write more like a natural conversation, he wouldn't find it painful and would actually enjoy it.

　From now on, I think all I have to do is write down my thoughts. However, rather than just talking about myself, I would like to share more and more useful information with my readers .

　Even in real life, you always need to keep your antenna up and look for material. Maybe that's what you need to know as a blogger. This article ended up being about 2,300 characters, but some readers may find it a little long. I would like to spend his days of trial and error with such readers as well.

　We will work hard every day to meet the needs of our readers, so we appreciate your continued support. I would like to thank all the readers who read this long article to the end. See you soon.

Apply someone else's ideas. Add your own ideas to make it original by 天風

　This is Tenpu, the blog owner. When it comes to ideas, there are a lot of them out there. However, using it as is is not the best way to do it. I would like to think about the importance of adding originality to other people's ideas.

use someone else's ideas

　Bloggers come across many ideas while reading other blogs online. It is said as if it were the blogger's own opinion, whether or not he thought of it himself . I think there is no problem for blog owners to make such claims as long as their opinions do not violate laws such as copyright.

　This is often seen in books as well. In particular, I think that in Japan, it has long been considered a good thing to import and spread ideas from the West. So, I decided to think about whether it is a good idea to use ideas created by others as they are .

　Let's use an example to illustrate this. For example, the blog owner previously introduced his own way to wake up in the morning on this blog. If you want to wake up early in the morning, drink coffee as soon as you wake up and you'll wake up refreshed. (Link to article) “ Successful people wake up early ”　

　At first glance, this idea seems like anyone could do it. In fact, if many people try it, it will work.

　But that idea doesn't work for everyone. This is because it would be impossible for people who don't like coffee, and some people may be allergic to coffee. For some people, caffeine doesn't work at all.

　If you think about it calmly, you'll realize that this idea of ​​drinking coffee to wake up early is just a general idea . Therefore, we cannot respond to exceptional situations such as those listed above .

　This can be said about the economic policies created by blog owners as a hobby, as well as the ideas posted on the internet by professional consultants. In other words, an idea that is sent to many people may not necessarily be applied successfully to everyone .

Add originality to your ideas

　Now, what should we do? Originality is important here . Generally, ideas created for use by many people do not perfectly match the circumstances of each individual. However, if this idea is applied to individuals as if it were a one-size-fits-all idea, it may not work well and may lead to failure.

　This is not the result that the originator of the idea intended, and I am sure that each individual wishes to devise ways to use it in light of their own circumstances. This also applies to the Western ideas mentioned above, and it is inevitable that importing Western ideas and applying them to Japan will not work.

　Therefore, it is not the West's intention to say that Western ideas are bad, and if they are going to use them, they should be able to adapt them in their own way. This can also be said to be adding new originality .

　The reason why originality is required, both in business and research, is to get new people to use your ideas successfully. This new person could be someone you never knew about the idea before, or it could be your future self. However, by giving each item its own originality, it will work better.

　Let's go back to the coffee example. In this case, being original means drinking cola instead of coffee. Or maybe it's taking a caffeine pill or hitting yourself with a stun gun the moment you wake up (or vice versa, lol).

　In short, adding originality means applying the essential idea of ​​taking some action the moment you wake up in the morning and thinking about what to do . Even the action that took place in the first place could be something else. In other words, all you have to do is rewrite the idea into something that is easier for you to use.

Originality is your value

　As with many ideas floating around, the originator does not necessarily want the idea to be used as is. As an initiator, all you have to do is get the maximum effect out of your idea.

　The person who came up with the idea would be proud if the idea worked as is. Your desire for honor will be satisfied. However, I think most of the ideas that work are ones that have been adapted in your own way .

　In summary, don't just believe in other people's ideas. You should always ask yourself, is there a way to be more effective? As a result of repeated improvements, the idea that was originally proposed by someone else will become your own idea .

　Blog owners also want to copy ideas from other people's blogs. This is a very bold declaration, but the blog owner intends to add his own ideas as originality rather than plagiarism.

　I believe that adding your own originality to your blog in this way will help you build your blog owner's brand, and will ultimately help you survive this age of blogging.

　Add some originality to prove that you're different . This will help you grow as an added value. See you soon.

What is the Fundamental Theorem of Prime Factorization? ? Binary and Hexadecimal by 天風 20231127

This is Tenpu. Today, I would like to write about the idea of ​​prime factorization, which the blog owner uses in my hobby research.

Binary number

　First, let's talk about the first method. First of all, do you, readers, know what binary numbers are? Binary is one way to represent numbers. For example, let's represent the numbers 0 to 10 in binary.

0 = 0

1 = 1

2 = 10

3 = 11

4 = 100

5 = 101

6 = 110

7 = 111

8 = 1000

9 = 1001

10 = 1010

　The right side of each is a binary number. You can see that this is made up of 0 and 1 . Here, you can also see that when everything becomes 1, it is carried forward . For example, after 3=11 and 7=111, the numbers are moved up by one digit to 4=100 and 8=1000, respectively.

　At first glance, this concept of binary numbers seems unusual. However, the numbers we usually use, such as the numbers 0 to 9 in the example above, are called decimal numbers. When a decimal number reaches 9, it moves up one digit to 10, and when it reaches 99, it moves up one digit to 100.

　Of course, if we have binary and decimal numbers, we also have ternary and hexadecimal numbers. The idea is the same. For ternary numbers, numbers from 0 to 2 are used, and when all numbers reach 2, the numbers are carried forward; for hexadecimal numbers, numbers from 0 to F are used, and when all numbers become F, they are carried forward.

　Now you may be wondering, "What is F?" In hexadecimal numbers, 10 is represented as A, 11 as B, 12 as C, 13 as D, 14 as E, and 15 as F. This is because, for example, we know that 1F is 1x16+15, but without expressing 15 as F, we don't know if 115 means 1F or 1x16x16+1x16+5.

　Returning to the topic, this idea of ​​n-ary numbers is important in the blog owner's research, and I especially use binary numbers . How to use it is as follows. Represent the numbers 13 and 11 in binary.

13=8+4+0+1 → 1101　

11=8+0+2+1 → 1011

In this case, a decimal number 4 or 8 corresponds to a binary number 1, and a decimal number 0 corresponds to a binary number 0. This 8+4+0+1 is used in the calculation of prime factorization using the blog owner's method.

Future of circular energy economy and resource depletion by 天風 20231126

This is Tenpu. Earth sustainability. I'm curious. To achieve this, we need an economy where resources circulate like energy .

The disadvantage of economic growth is resource depletion

　economic growth. I think this is one of the things that many people want from politics. Why do you ask for this? This may be because everyone expects to live a rich and satisfying life. However, I would like to challenge this expectation.

　When thinking about economic growth, readers probably think that the higher the growth rate, the better . If this happens, more people will become wealthy, and depending on policy, fewer people may become poor. However, on the other hand, there is little talk about the disadvantages of economic growth.

One of the age-old problems　in this regard is environmental pollution. Factories and other manufacturing processes emitted a lot of hazardous waste, and the negative effects of this caused hardship to nearby residents. Famous examples in Japan are Minamata disease and Itai-itai disease. In economics, this is called a negative externality . However, now that Japan has become an economic powerhouse, such blatant environmental pollution has subsided.

　The next problem is global warming . The cause is CO2, or carbon dioxide, emissions. Although Japan is a relatively small country, its economic activities are large, and it emits a large amount of carbon dioxide relative to its land area. One way to solve this problem is to buy and sell emissions credits.

　Buying and selling emissions credits means that the amount of carbon dioxide that a country can emit is first decided through an international initiative, and if a country wants to emit more carbon dioxide than that, it can purchase carbon dioxide from other countries that emit less carbon dioxide. This is a system in which people purchase the right to emit carbon.

　Although it is not up to the author to judge whether this initiative is working well, I feel that the philosophy of reducing carbon dioxide emissions is shared.

　That's why one of the disadvantages of economic growth is environmental pollution, but I would like to share one more thought. It's a waste of resources . Resources are constant. It is highly unlikely that the earth's resources will change significantly over the course of 10 years. Of course, as with the current shale revolution, the supply of oil and other substances may increase in the future, but the amount of reserves should remain constant. The increase in supply is simply due to buried resources coming to the surface.

　Therefore, if we continue to waste resources in economic activities, there is a risk that the resources that can be used for economic activities on earth will eventually be exhausted. So, as I mentioned at the beginning, what can we do to maximize the benefits of economic growth, which means an increase in the number of wealthy people?

Recommendation for an energy circular economy

　As one such idea, I would like to propose an energy circular economy. An energy circular economy is a recycling economy in which used resources can be used again and again . If we look back at our knowledge of biology and physics, energy circulation is a food chain and the law of conservation of energy.

　The reason why the natural environment continues semi-permanently is because a cycle is completed in which energy is converted, becomes other energy, and that energy becomes yet another energy.

　As you can probably already understand, when the resources used in economic activities are thrown away as garbage, this circulation mechanism becomes stagnant . As a result, a negative spiral is formed in which resources continue to decrease while garbage continues to increase.

　Therefore, one of the major disadvantages of economic growth will be eliminated if used resources can be used second-hand, or ideally, if they can be returned to their original state when they came out of the soil. It is. Recycling of this resource can also be expected to be highly profitable as a business . If this goes well, the trade-off between the environment and economic growth, or the situation where we can only choose between the environment and economic growth, will be resolved.

　If resource depletion continues like this, the resources will eventually become extremely expensive and beyond our reach.
