This table shows a matrix with 2main axes of the quaternary civilization core components of Power, The human condition, Planetary Boundaries and Adaptation/Communication/Governance VS the 4 primary constraints for life on earth which are the Atmosphere, Overpopulation, Fertility – genetic integrity – ability to reproduce safely, Agriculture and Ecosystems. The pieces of the puzzle are not all correctly aligned or in the correct columns as they should share a commonality among them, but it will do for now as a basic foundation to work from.
