FUTURES that Work
The challenges in our future are certain, even if the solutions are not.
Technology moves so fast that it can feel hard to keep up. Climate change threatens the planet itself. Then again, humanity has always been able to solve big problems and adapt to the "new normal." What might ours look like in the years to come?
FUTURES that Work looks at possible solutions: ways of making a healthier, happier world. Perhaps we should simply slow down -- faster isn't always better. Maybe we'll be smarter in how we use our resources, so we don't use them up. Perhaps we'll harness the power of renewables, focusing our creativity on sustainable cycles, rather than endless growth. Will any of these strategies solve all our problems? Probably not, but each of them has a vital part to play. |
