11. Why I Care About the Future

12. Key Negative Trends
• Collapse of complex societies: catastrophe from disaster
for lack of resilience & adaptation as well as corruption
• Acts of Man creating Acts of God: natural disasters will be
more frequent & more severe as we cement more land
• Acceleration of Earth’s Demise: changes that used to
take 10,000 years now take THREE years; absent Real Time Science and Real
Time Public Policy (online, deliberative, transparent) we die
• Shock Capitalism continues to loot the Earth and has turned USA
into a Third World country—UAE (Dubai) is the new Switzerland
• Political Corruption ascendant—44 dictators, both
Republican and Democratic parties are “running on empty” and very corrupt,
elites in towns across America have sold us out

13. Key Positive Trends
• Wealth of networks: fortune at the bottom of the
pyramid, peace through connectivity, wealth from sharing information
• GreenMind: Biomimicry, beneficial bacteria, green chemistry,
• Moral capitalism: natural capitalism, green to gold, cradle to
cradle, home rule, eat local, end of corporate personality
• Democratic Information: “true costs” at point of sale
• Left Hand of God: faith-based dialog and diplomacy, obvious
need to end of our support to 42 of 44 dictators, shunning of cults
• Peer to Peer People Power: from the Tao of
Democracy to localized Wisdom Councils to Blessed Unrest to the Clock
of the Long Now.
