Looking back from 2050 as a thought experiment causes me to wonder how we are going to offset the dynamics of climate change. What I did (in retrospect) was to continue to educate, using videos such as this one: https://vidmails.com/v/T5ND8df3HH. My adult life for 40 years has been to work for global enlightenment. I founded LoveShift: Radical new thinking for a changing world. www.loveshift.com.
So, as I imaging my life at 2050, I will be glad I contributed to the awakening and resilience of humanity. There are hundreds of videos which I have already made, at www.loveshift.com, www.onesharedmyth.com, www.itsmyclimate.com and now, most recently, at www.oneearthoneclimate.com. I expect that we will need massive new initiave (s) if we want to survive. The video included above (20 minutes) highlights the acute, vital need for new thinking.
We need to re-envision EVERYTHING! Society, earth, the individual, leadership, food, water, poverty, hunger, human trafficking, deforestation and the list goes on.
And we shall also need to understand that NO ONE is going to arrive somehow, mystically, to save us from ourselves. The Universe is a planet nursery and is vetting us to see if we are worthy of continuation. From the perspective of war, climate, population, and all the other issues facing us, it might be more accurate to describe the Universe as a planet graveyard. We are in the fight of our lives.
MASSIVE education, resourse allocation, university education and international synergy shall be needed right how if we wish to survive.
If I am able to look back from the year 2050, it will be because, and only because, we homo sapiens have gotten very smart, very lucky and very interested in changing ourselves for the benefit of all life.
Period.
