DAB2 discovered 30 months ago- A powerfull message about a possible future. As you might have noticed if you look beyond just the images on my list (this is not a blog - but that is off topic) I am worried about the end of cheap, concentrated, liquid fuel. That particular problem is not mentioned in this link. However I applaud the attitude shown.

- The future is not written in stone, but neither is it unbounded. Our actions, our choices shape the options we'll have in the days and years to come. We can, with all too little difficulty, make decisions that call into being an inescapable chain of events. But if we try, we can also make decisions that expand our opportunities, and push out the boundaries of tomorrow. If there is a common theme across our work at WorldChanging, it is that we are far better served as a global civilization by actions and ideas that increase our ability to respond effectively, knowledgably, and sustainably to challenges that arise. In particular, I've focused on the value of openness as a means of worldchanging transformation: open as in free, transparent and diverse; open as in participatory and collaborative; open as in broadly accessible; and open as in choice and flexibility, as with the kind of future worth building -- the open future.

- In WorldChanging by James Cascio: """ The future is not written in stone, but neither is it unbounded. Our actions, our choices shape the options we'll have in the days and years to come. We can, with all too little difficulty, make decisions that call into being an inescapable chain of events. But if we try, we can also make decisions that expand our opportunities, and push out the boundaries of tomorrow. """ In Beyong Being and becoming Nobel recipient Illya Prygogyne says that the future is probabilistic: " I have attempted to build a physics that incorporates time at the elementary level. In other words, I want to give a new formulation to the idea of laws of nature: Rather than speaking about these laws as deterministic I want to express them in a way that involves both probability and "irreversibility"--chance and time. "
