	Numeracy refers to a quantitative understanding of natural and human phenomena. Numeracy allows one to interpret phenomena in a manner that allows for constructive, fact-supported action, as opposed to responding emotionally response via a triggered reptilian brain. Thus, it is critical for a movement entrepreneur working on the open source economy to understand basic applications of numeracy - in order to take effective action.

			We can further specify a form of numeracy related to [[Abundance Numeracy]], or [[Physical Numeracy]].

			Here are some questions that any numerate person should be able to answer, or at the very least, define a process for how one would approach obtaining such an answer:

	#What is the limit of how many people the OSE aquaponic greenhouse can feed?		#What is the limit of how many people the OSE aquaponic greenhouse can feed?
	#Is it practical to make solar concrete?		#Is it practical to make solar concrete?
