  • [X] Plan No Resource Collapse
    -[X] 100PF - Develop and Expand Orbital Resource Acquisition. Earth is running low on certain resources critical to modern industry and we've just built up a lot of orbital capability. Let's take advantage of these two facts to drastically expand the currently minimal asteroid mining and orbital refining operations going on. Maybe we'll even start mining lunar resources if that's cheaper.
    -[X] 100PF - Secure the Water Supply. Clean water is essential to both people and industry, whilst it's also shrinking and becoming constantly more expensive. It's time to secure enough under our control that we can keep our workers and industries supplied to at least a minimal capacity if a disaster happens. Whether this comes from taking control over existing sources of clean water or developing desalination and other purification and filtration methods to supply it will be left up to whichever will give the best results in each region. Do try to avoid upsetting the EU or SA (again) however as such is unnecessary at this time.
    -[X] 75PF - Improve Education Efforts. One of the greatest restrictions for improving our orbital efforts and profits is the fact that we're dependent on European Union workers, and thus can't avoid their regulations. Efforts should be undertaken to improve education capabilities elsewhere so we're no longer reliant on a single source of labour and can thus begin working around the EU restrictions without losing our orbital workforce. Perhaps offering scholarships to company families which pay for the education but lock the new graduate into working for the relevant company for a period of years in exchange? Some focus should be placed on developing these in South America as it'll both hopefully stabilise the situation there so profitability doesn't see reductions and allow us to gain influence in the region as people are educated in our facilities.
    -[X] 70PF - Expand and Develop the Power Sector. We've got a toehold in the power sector, but it's only just breaking even and the EU has just made a major technological breakthrough. Let's try to expand the toehold to something actually yielding a profit through developing new capabilities. Whether that be looking back on renewables and batteries, acquiring the EU's new thorium reactors somehow or developing the ability to export power from orbit efficiently. The Yakuza's suppression efforts may be unavoidable at this time, but we should be able to avoid gaining the EU's ire again by seemingly respecting their anti-trust methods at least. And by ensuring someone else takes the blame if we illegally acquire their new thorium reactor technology, with us then acquiring the information from said other actor. Not like we'll be the only corporations trying to steal that information.
    -[X] 70PF - Secure Chemical Feedstocks. There is a pending collapse of the chemical and fuel industries due to the exhaustion of what remaining fossil fuel deposits there are. However there are methods to renewably produce certain of these chemicals easily, and many others with more expensive processes. Whilst the easiest and most available process currently consume food crops to produce such as soy beans or corn, there has long been ambitions of developing algae farming able to replace them. Fortunately, whilst clean water is expensive and limited, thus decreasing it's use for algae farming, creating oceanic algae farms should be entirely possible. And that is only the most obvious method for feeding our chemical or fuel needs in the future, with more also being worthy of investigation.
    -[X] -25PF - Hire Ascalon Private Security Company to secure our many facilities and properties. Unrest and the recent break-ins are concerning enough that efforts to prevent damage or destruction to our assets is essential.
    [X] Plan: Resources, Hydrogen, Education
    -[X] 100 PF - Develop and Expand Orbital Resource Acquisition.
    -[X] 100 PF - Construct offshore Energy Islands, producing renewable Wind Energy and Green Hydrogen.
    -[X] 100 PF - Push global industries to adopt Hydrogen Fuel Cells.
    -[X] 100 PF - Improve Education Efforts.
    -[X] -25PF/turn - Hire Ascalon Private Security Company to secure our many facilities and properties.
