from 1972 -father then interviewed anyone he could from The Economist on hypothesis 10 times more impact of this combination of innovations within 50 years than from the industrial revolutions 150 years
the main system exponential scenario (little sistered sustainability or big brothered loss) -what if this is applied to life shaping challenges (end poverty) as a priority and what if it isn't
by 1972 father also had a controversial world view- America under nixon was becoming neurotic, unhappy and not the world best partner in the way it had been in the first half of the 20th century; two particular actins bothered him dumbing down of peoples by commercial ttv and the change of public money spent on arms-- altogether intellectaulaised around totally false (ie systems that devalued intergenerational goodwill and borderless open society at compound-so-ultimately-irreversible (too big to exist ) rates) macroeconomic models
conversely win-wins that japan then south krea and superports run by Chinese traders had started father saw china (by 1975 Chinese diaspora being 3rd riches identity) continuing- it clarified where the sustainability communicatins revolution would be played out (far away from UN's piece of manhattan)
given that half of the world would live within 3000 miles of Beijing by 2015 it sustainability last tipping points would involve common senses around that space's joyful mediation of youth trust open society and education

Chinese women action learning networks and supporters apps
mainly unintended villains : old American billionnaires as sponsrs of vgested interests and Americas priviliege to try every web/app experiment before other spaces
father and my 1984 book the 2025 report provided key exponentially spiraling timelines of peace, clean energy, downsizing top-dwn government, ending macroeconomics, celebrating open (jobs) learning netwrks and collaboration apps connected to youths microfranchise entrepreneur competitions all anchored arunhd the assumption that by 2000 man wuld recognise his greatest risk was discrepancy in incmes and expecatins of rich and poor nations- each of the biggest professions makes money externalizing the risk it rules over- this is the ultimate system horror einstein used to diarise
so whats left of our species innovation brilliance in progressing human lot
our human race depends on this decade being under 30s most sustainably productive- they need open space everywhere
the supercity model can work - if we exchange 2 things honestly- where is each of the 20 biggest markets most sustainable "higher" purpose already to be learnt from - how does a worst for youth city like Washington dc reframe that as the greatest ever opportunity to improve through linking in youth open learning spaces and friendship networks such as 20th celebration of world creative children
the worldwide youth community led by franciscans and amy-style Chinese youth connecting mandela, king, Gandhi, Jewish Cantors or other cultural leaders of intergenerational value is worth (youth) celebrating collaboration with more than whom ever is your favorite sporting superstar
what else....
