Title :merging global megaforces and their implications for the future
Presenter/Moderator: George Kubik, PhD (President-Anticipatory Futures Group, LLC)
Join us Saturday, October 5, as we explore the topic of emerging global megaforces and their implications for the future. The purpose of the presentation and subsequent discussion will be twofold: 1. To identify leading global megaforces that are developing around the world; and, 2. To stimulate strategic thinking about the future implications of these megaforces across multiple dimensions of political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and scientific variables. Join us as we examine some of the global megaforces that will influence the alternative worlds of tomorrow, and the choices that they present us with in the present.
Abtract:
We will talk about some of the reasons Geologists are considering the present to be the age of humans, and some of the possible and probable (unintended) consequences of current trends. We may be able to manage to discuss future scenarios that we would prefer. Capitalism, peak oil, new technology, and limits to growth will all be likely to come into the discussion.”
