    1. Matters ArisingCross-scale translation of Earth system boundaries should use methods that are more science-based

      for - cross scale translation of earth system boundaries - critique - Xue & Bakshi, 2022

      Summary - This paper offers a critique of the review paper "Translating Earth system boundaries for cities and businesses by Bai et al. - The critique depends on two arguments: - the methods in this review paper are "overly subjective" - there are more scientifically rigorous methods for translation available but have not been included in the review paper - the approaches discussed may violate the "incentivizing" principle proposed in Fig. 3 by - discouraging the protection and restoration of ecosystems. - the authors offer details supporting their critique in their published works below

    1. Cities and businesses are key actors driving anthropogenic pressures, but have received less attention in sustainability assessments than countries. The unique challenges associated with these actors need to be understood and resolved in translation methods, and approaches that reflect the specific environmental, social, and economic contexts of cities and businesses need to be developed

    1. the systemwide optimum population cohort for the climate action interventions is a community (P4) of 10 000 persons

        • 10000 to 1 million is optimum size
      • question: investigate rationale
    2. We suggest that prioritizing the analyzed climate actions between community and urban scales, where global and local converge, can help catalyze and enhance individual, household and local practices, and support national and international policies and finances for rapid sustainability transformations.

      • key finding
        • suitable cohorts and cohort ranges for rapidly deploying climate and sustainability actions between a single individual and the globally projected ∼ 10 billion persons by 2050 is:
        • community scale between 10k and 100k

    1. So far, smart city systems are being set up to appropriate and commercialize individual and community data. So far, communities are not waking up to the realization that a capacity they need is being stolen from them before they have it.”

        • Innovation in the creation and sustainability of social institutions acts predominantly at the local level.
        • In the Internet of Things, for those capacities to emerge in smart cities, communities need the capacity to own and analyse the data created that models what they are experiencing.
        • Local data needs to be seen as a common, pool resource.
        • Where that occurs, communities will have the capacity to learn or innovate their way forward.
