The Age of Abundance

My blog has been The Age of Anxiety since 2009, but now I want to move on to The Age of Abundance. The Age of Anxiety has certainly appeared, but I’m convinced that we are now moving towards a world of abundance. If we don’t make this move we will be assaulted by the effects of climate change, and who can tell what that future will bring .
I’m encouraged by the thinking of Dr David Deutsch , who sees the possibility of our using the increasing power of technology and science to solve our problems. Deutsch is not a dreamer as his book The Beginning of Infinity proves.
We are unable to fund this new future because we view the Green costs as if they are a tax or financial burden and so are reluctant to pay. But we need to view these Green costs in a different way. We need to understand they are investments in our survival, and we have to pony up if we want to have a chance to continue the progress we have made.
The hurricanes, floods, fires and earthquakes are increasing each year and we are not taking them seriously. We have to face the facts of climate change and change our attitude to Green costs, invest in the future or our children and grandchildren will suffer the consequences.
