Lionel Andrés Messi[note 1] (Spanish pronunciation: [ljoˈnel anˈdɾes ˈmesi] (listen); born 24 June 1987), also known as Leo Messi, is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain and captains the Argentina national team. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, Messi has won a record seven Ballon d'Or awards,[note 2] a record six European Golden Shoes, and in 2020 was named to the Ballon d'Or Dream Team. Until leaving the club in 2021, he had spent his entire professional career with Barcelona, where he won a club-record 35 trophies, including 10 La Liga titles, seven Copa del Rey titles and four UEFA Champions Leagues. With his country, he won the 2021 Copa América and the 2022 FIFA World Cup. A prolific goalscorer and creative playmaker, Messi holds the records for most goals in La Liga (474), most hat-tricks in La Liga (36) and the UEFA Champions League (8), and most assists in La Liga (192) and the Copa América (17). He has also the most international goals by a South American male (98). Messi has scored over 790 senior career goals for club and country, and has the most goals by a player for a single club (672). Born and raised in central Argentina, Messi relocated to Spain at the age of 13 to join Barcelona, for whom he made his competitive debut aged 17 in October 2004. He established himself as an integral player for the club within the next three years, and in his first uninterrupted season in 2008–09 he helped Barcelona achieve the first treble in Spanish football; that year, aged 22, Messi won his first Ballon d'Or. Three successful seasons followed, with Messi winning four consecutive Ballons d'Or, making him the first player to win the award four times. During the 2011–12 season, he set the La Liga and European records for most goals scored in a single season, while establishing himself as Barcelona's all-time top scorer. The following two seasons, Messi finished second for the Ballon d'Or behind Cristiano Ronaldo (his perceived career rival), before regaining his best form during the 2014–15 campaign, becoming the all-time top scorer in La Liga and leading Barcelona to a historic second treble, after which he was awarded a fifth Ballon d'Or in 2015. Messi assumed captaincy of Barcelona in 2018, and in 2019 he won a record sixth Ballon d'Or. Out of contract, he signed for Paris Saint-Germain in August 2021. An Argentine international, Messi holds the national record for appearances and is also the country's all-time leading goalscorer. At youth level, he won the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, finishing the tournament with both the Golden Ball and Golden Shoe, and an Olympic gold medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics. His style of play as a diminutive, left-footed dribbler drew comparisons with his compatriot Diego Maradona, who described Messi as his successor. After his senior debut in August 2005, Messi became the youngest Argentine to play and score in a FIFA World Cup in 2006, and reached the final of the 2007 Copa América, where he was named young player of the tournament. As the squad's captain from August 2011, he led Argentina to three consecutive finals: the 2014 FIFA World Cup, for which he won the Golden Ball, and the 2015 and 2016 Copa América, winning the Golden Ball in the 2015 edition. After announcing his international retirement in 2016, he reversed his decision and led his country to qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, a third-place finish at the 2019 Copa América, and won the 2021 Copa América, while winning the Golden Ball and Golden Boot award for the latter. This achievement would see him receive a record seventh Ballon d'Or in 2021. In 2022, he captained his country to win the 2022 FIFA World Cup, for which he won the Golden Ball for a record second time, and broke the record for most appearances in World Cup tournaments with 26 matches played. Messi has endorsed sportswear company Adidas since 2006. According to France Football, he was the world's highest-paid footballer for five years out of six between 2009 and 2014, and was ranked the world's highest-paid athlete by Forbes in 2019 and 2022. Messi was among Time's 100 most influential people in the world in 2011 and 2012. In February 2020, he was awarded the Laureus World Sportsman of the Year, thus becoming the first footballer and the first team sport athlete to win the award. Later that year, Messi became the second footballer and second team-sport athlete to surpass $1 billion in career earnings

Via Adelante: The Way Forward

1 Follower

Via Adelante is an organization established by yours truly, Jeff Davis, a formerly retired engineer and crypto entrepreneur now living in Mexico. I came out of retirement to leverage the growing digital (ie blockchain/cryptocurrency) financial ecosystem to achieve solutions to a variety of societal challenges. Via Adelante's flagship effort is The Green Freedom Project, which endeavors to address the global climate issue by a rapid expansion of solar, wind, and nuclear energy production. The path from fossil fuels to clean energy is clear. Carbon-free solar, wind, and nuclear energy production are all mature technologies. There are no unresolved technology issues. No innovation is required. It's all ready to go. However, up till now there has been a problem blocking the path to a clean energy future, a problem for which Via Adelante has identified the solution. Annual Global Energy Consumption by fossil fuels is in the range of 150,000 terawatt hours. Don't bother trying to wrap your head around what that number means. Simply put, the issue is the scale of the challenge. There isn't enough money in the world to fund the replacement by green energy of those 150,000 terawatt hours. Not within any acceptable timeframe. Can't be done. Or so it would seem. But to the problem-solving mind of the engineer, the above formulation of the matter actually identifies the essential center of the problem, and in doing so, points to the solution. "Not enough money in the world." Prior to the digital era and the emergence of cryptocurrencies -- Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc -- the global financial system was dominated by the US dollar, with which the US maintained near monopoly control of global money creation and financial flows. Bitcoin put an end to that. Though perhaps you haven't noticed ... and not in any way you might think. Now, non-sovereign digital currencies can be generated on the internet, decentralized, and beyond the jurisdictional boundaries that previously enabled sovereign control. The Internet has become an instrument of financial liberation. Neoliberalism's monopoly of the global monetary system has been breached. Witness then The Escape from Neoliberalism. The solution to "not enough money" is to create an alternative monetary system centered on a global digital currency with a corresponding capital market fully-stocked with a supply of capital. That is precisely what Via Adelante has done. Which then enables The Green Freedom Project to solve the funding bottleneck. The currency is called "Green". The v0.9 version has already been generated on the Binance Smart Chain. Via Adelante now emerges from stealth mode to publicize the project: build the website, generate media content across a variety of internet platforms -- this YouTube channel being the first -- seek out candidates for management, and assemble a software-development team to code a dedicated blockchain network with Green as its native currency, a mobile wallet for P2P transactions, and establish an online marketplace for currency trading and conversion of Green, as needed, to local currencies. Then Green Freedom will begin in earnest with the expansion of solar panel and battery storage production: PV and battery factories and associated upstream supply chains. All elements of the expansion paid for in Green. I cannot but acknowledge that Via Adelante is at the embryonic stage. Everything has its beginning, so too with Via Adelante and The Green Freedom Project. We endeavor to progress as rapidly as possible. We will be publishing regular online video content describing the details of the project and the state of progress on this and other media platforms. If you would like to join in the effort, we encourage you contact us at: via.adelante@gmail.com Best wishes to all of you in your future endeavors from our team, such as it is, here at Via Adelante.
