hrm that article is real interesting. it makes me think that future human society will be reorganised like small agricultural communities, except it'll be more hydroponics farming than having to leave things up to the elements.. and then to generate electricity, they'll use sun wind water etc, but also maybe the energy human beings generate.. im not sure how we'll fly around though; how do biodiesel planes work?
and schools will teach their own main curriculum but exchange programs will take place more regularly.. im actually kinda thankful for the racial harmony nonsense we had. it's an ideal situation that racism doesnt exist but at least we're aware that it's something we have to fight.. some of my white friends talk like the situation doesnt exist, while some of my black friends can sometimes assert the inherent racism (like economic imbalance as if white trash didnt exist) they face, and then it can feel a bit divisive. but at least they talk about it. dangerously though, is the us versus them syndrome.
nyeh ok i dunno how i thought of this from tibet.. something to do with how people naturally tend to leave countrysides to go to cities for better lives which arent really better. and if the natural tendency is to leave agrarian lands and we want to give everyone equal opportunity in living out their chosen destinies, then we have to create societies that are self-sustaining in terms of energy and food/water/air needs!
