INTRODUCTORY BACKGROUND 
Is the Global Financial Crash happening? What is the answer? A global financial collapse approaches as does an environmental one. These collapses are interlinked and, as things stand, are unavoidable because they stem from a false understanding of reality. However it is possible to build a new financial system from within the present one and total environmental collapse can be avoided if a better understanding of reality, essentially based on the Islamic paradigm or understanding of reality, is adopted. The Islamic paradigm is based on Qu'ranic revelation; the analysis and understanding of notable Islamic scholars; and the best practices of Muslims over the centuries and today manifests itself in a modern, private property, market economics based on a universal banking which is financially stable and is notable for being genuinely free from all riba/interest (as distinct from administration cost). The economics is both efficient (while forwarding economic justice) and non-inflationary. It also extends skills and productive capital ownership throughout the population, balances supply and demand, involves all individuals in the real economy, enables societies to control their own destiny and ensures that people have effective control over their everyday lives. In particular, the use of universal banking including national bank-issued interest-free loans (administered by the banking system) avoids the build-up of financial bubbles which eventually collapse and enables a direct addressing of the main factors in impending environmental crisis.
