The "Desert of the Real"

 

 

 

"We should all be concerned about the future because we will have to spend the rest of our lives there."    --Charles F. Kettering

 

 

Finding the Wrong Directions

When trying to figure out where you're going, it helps to know where you don't want to end up. Identifying the wrong paths can help to choose the right ones.

 

This section is an archive of articles that deal with issues that have arisen or are on the horizon of our societies. They are serious issues that must be talked about and dealt with if we are to build a better future.

 

Common Themes

 

Ethical Responsibility Problems that exist in the current nature of ethical practice, including law, environment, surveillance and more.
Survivability The obstacles to future survivability of the human race, societies and culture.
Quality of Life Obstacles to continuing to raise the quality of life.
Climate Change One of the most powerful forces in our future is the changing climate. The world has the potential to change the nature of humanity if we continue our current destructive path.
Abuse of Power Governments have long had a history of abusing their power, intimidating and misleading people into sacrificing their personal freedoms, or supporting the wants of politicians rather than communities and nations as a whole. These articles are examples of social leaders abusing the power entrusted to them.

 

 

 

The purpose of problem identification is that it serves as a stepping stone to a "big picture" solution. By itself this page is merely a curiosity, but in synergy with the solutions page, it is intended as a foundation to building a better future. It is important to consider as many problematic issues as possible, but not at the expense of forgetting action and solutions.
