From Clarity to Climate Action: Building Systems That Actually Work

Stop waiting on politics. Clear thinking is resistance. Split strategically, build in parallel, invest in teams that deliver.

Why I’m writing this

Lately I’ve spoken with fund people—mostly young. Not bad per se, but molded: zero questions, plenty of slogans. SDGs, “impact,” KPI theater. They change nothing. They grease the system that’s wrecking the world. LinkedIn is their stage—old world, crap. Substack is where builders live.

The line is clear

Politics won’t fix this. This isn’t a policy game but a strategic split: step out of the old game and build a parallel, working economy. Waiting raises the odds of violence; building lowers them. I choose to build.

Mass psychosis is mechanics: fear + the need to belong = slogans, censorship, blind following. The exit is individual: mental sovereignty, emotional discipline, meaning, and small networks that take responsibility. So: working systems alongside the system. I choose to build.

What that actually means

• Parallel infrastructure over policy: produce, deliver, cashflow.

• Execution over narrative.

• Small → modular → scalable.

Algavo — from idea to infrastructure

Together with Wout I’m building Algavo: modular seaweed biorefineries for materials, food, and energy. Lean. Scalable. Cashflow-driven. No window dressing—measurable output and rights to assets. No conference papers, no model games—a system that works.

Synchronicity — not woo, but pattern recognition

Separate events pointing in the same direction are not coincidence:

• Algavo = execution. Build in the real world.

• Hatch-Blue’s “no” = signal. We’re not for the pitch circus; we build in parallel. No time wasted, no concessions.

• Substack Philosophy Top-100 = reach. The right readers and investors are here, not on LinkedIn.

Three points, one line: we’re on course. That’s the coherence check that matters.

Together with Wout

We do this together. Not just because we’re father and son, but because we understand each other, know how the world functions, and choose not to be part of it. The path is damn hard; I help him stay on it. We choose it anyway.

We choose it anyway

Call to investors (Substack, not LinkedIn)

If you’re leaving the old model and dare to build in parallel, reach out to me or to Wout. We’re looking for capital that sees clearly, takes responsibility, and creates value where the herd still sleeps. No pitch-deck circus; a conversation about execution. Our inboxes are open—here, not on LinkedIn.
