2 – Is related to activities that almost entirely correspond to what is known as tertiary sector and do not imply – or imply only to a minimum and in a way that almost no loss happens, but the re-use – the use of (raw) materials. This currency is infinite and does not represent a privilege since it cannot be converted from system 1 currency and neither does it guarantee security or ostentatory privileges related to system 1 needs. It cannot be transformed in better houses (though everyone has the right to cheap, healthy and agreeable ones), more luxury clothes or the like. It relates to dance, music, education in any level and many ways, travelling (in ecological ways) and the meeting of humanity and its earthly home. It also concerns therapies, massages, concerts, literature, learning, history, group formation and group enjoyment, solitude time, etc. It has more to do with experiences than with consumerism, transferring the urge and the energy put into growth through matter to growth through culture and creativity. This currency exists in infinite quantity and can always be created in vaster quantities – the abundance of some does not imply or suppose the scarcity of others, on the contrary.
Environmental and landscape requalification, purifying and re-energizing natural systems, the work with the Earth’s beauty and fertility are desirably inspired , as everything, by Beauty - and then they can and will be better accomplished when consisting of an aesthetic and loving experience, just as scientific and technologic research. In that sense we see a world in which all activities have an artistic characteristic, even the ones that concern the improvement of life in a biological level and which are so important.
