What Are We to Do with Our Lives?
Published: Watts & Co 1935
‘ The world is undertaking immense changes. Never before have the conditions of life changed so swiftly and enormously as they have changed for mankind in the last fifty year.’
Though in environmental terms it is more like the last 15 month to 5 years.
While in many ways we are now going through a major set of changes which will impact upon us all over the next 50 day and thus in to the future.
What next ?
Over the last 15 days it has been the case of us all asking: –
What Next?
In many ways we have all been very surprised upon how things are changing.
Yet for all the observations we make about just what is happening to us all right now, many of the pundits predictions upon economic, political, social, and ecological issues, are still based upon what has happened in the past.
Never the less there are a number of key indicators which worth looking at:-
– Changes in Housing provision,
– The stock Market and Wider Economy
– Changes in Food Production and Provision.
– An ending to the use of Nukiller Power and Extreme Energy,
– Public and Private Transport.
&
– How we all socialise from now onwards.
