Working paper demonstrates the optimal pace of conservation action, highlighting cost implications and governance effects.
Series S4 (Stewardship & Governance) of the Viridis Canon. Proves the Stewardship Tempo Theorem (STT): the cost of stewardship as a function of action pace is strictly convex with a unique optimal tempo τ*=√(A/B); both haste and neglect are penalized symmetrically (a cosh law), and deviation from the Intelligence-Bound-optimal tempo carries a quantifiable governability tax. The ninth instance of square-root reciprocity universality in the canon. Scope. Lean 4 (Aristotle-verified, zero sorry) certifies the optimization results, not empirical magnitudes. Working paper; not peer-reviewed.
