Economic historians call this The Great Divergence.

Oh, this whole thing, this is a cyclical phenomenon.

So the tree of life is normally divergence over time.

Aegyptopithecus marked a divergence of old world monkeys, and apes.

There are six which I think explain the Great Divergence.

And you can see here that there's an exponential Great Divergence.

But one thing is for sure, the Great Divergence is over, folks.

So it's necessary to have both convergence, and divergence to establish, construct validity.

And this slide here is the best simplification of the Great Divergence story

You may think we can explain the Great Divergence in terms of geography.

That would lead to the end of cyclical consumption and the end of monetary system.

Now we have divergence over time, but we've created the third dimension of area.

So it really doesn't look like empire is a great explanation for the Great Divergence.

And that sometimes leads to bit of a divergence in why we're doing what we're doing.

And this is part of a really extraordinary phenomenon, and that is the end of the Great Divergence.

There's something about this cyclical version of doing something over and over and over that seems to be particularly demotivating.

And the result is an even bigger divergence in a very short space of time than happened in Germany.

They got on a boat, and yet another divergence the boat was either going to Canada or to Australia.

Well, I can tell you that this divergence that you're seeing here doesn't happen only in our five minute experiment.

If this option is enabled, the search will follow symlinks to directories. This can lead to infinite recursion if cyclical symlinks exist.

In any case, as you may remember, the Great Divergence reaches its zenith in the 1970s, some considerable time after decolonization.

The current imbalance between supply and demand is considered to reflect structural changes on the demand side, rather than being a cyclical phenomenon.

linear by cyclical fossil fuel energy by renewable energy, sunlight wasteful by waste free and abusive by benign and labor productivity by resource productivity.

There's no coincidence that boom and bust became a real cyclical issue around about the 1700s when William Paterson founded the Bank of England.

Such a solution does not lead anywhere in the monetary system, because it is contrary to cyclical consumption, which the monetary system is based upon.

There's no coincidence that boom and bust became a real cyclical issue around about the 1700's, when William Paterson founded the Bank of England.

To put that into perspective, this red vertical bar here marks the divergence time of humans from chimpanzees, a mere seven million years ago.

Enlightened self interest, because if that economic divergence continues for another 40 years, combined with social integration globally, it will build a nightmare for our children.

We see it in the constant appearance of slang and jargon, of the historical change in languages, in divergence of dialects and the formation of new languages.

But if you look at cultures which have cyclical and based on infinite lives, you will see a comfort with fuzzy logic, with opinion, with contextual thinking, with everything is relative, sort of (Laughter) mostly.

That he may make that which the Satan casteth forth a temptation for those in whose heart is a disease and whose hearts are hardened and the wrong doers are in divergence far off

You get a divergence of Newtonian and quantum thinking at that point, you have a split in your dialog that is so deep, and so far, that they cannot bring this together at all.

And if ye fear a divergence between the twain, set up an arbiter from his household and an arbiter from her household then if the twain desire rectification Allah shall bring harmony between the twain verily Allah is ever Knowing, Aware.

Those new cyclical technologies have contributed mightily to the fact that we have produced and sold 85 million square yards of climate neutral carpet since 2004, meaning no net contribution to global climate disruption in producing the carpet throughout the supply chain, from mine and well head clear to end of life reclamation independent third party certified.
