I would like to see our dollar pinned to the EU, I know we are an exporter and that is not a good idea to have a stronger currency but if we can do that the world will move away from the US dollar even faster.
The USA invaded Venezuela to prevent them from doing oil deals with China in yuan which would challenge the USD as the defacto currency for oil trade.
So we can also further your objective just by turning away from fossil fuels.
Yen = Japanese currency
Yuan = Chinese currency (aka renminbi)
We should be electrifying as many things as we. It costs less to run and the electricity supply is more reliable than gas or diesel.
The world will still need oil for durable plastics until that is replaced too.
I like the idea of turning away from dino juice, but it would take a lot to actually get people to do it.
Or sell oil to China in Yen
or sell Yen to oil in China
Yes this is better
Pinned while CAD and Euro are relatively close... Not after the Great Drone Wars when 1 CAD = 47 Euro and the ~~former USA~~ Great Wasteland is ruled by the Guzzoline Gangs.
