A crash course in changing the world.
I think this is my favorite concept becouse we need to realize that we all share a collective fate. I am a firm believe in the attempt to make human life unimaginably longer, more productive, and happier. Their will of cource be a cost and more then likely a benifit to this development. Right now when I bring up the heat death to most people they kind of get a glassed over look on their face. The most common responce is sure in a few billion years everything we will do or did do is going to be meaningless, but by then I will be dead so what does it matter. My responce pretty consistantly is ahhhh but what if you aren't. I believe that we need everyone on this planet to be fully actualized if we are to have a hope of avoiding this dismal end. After all in many ways the heat death would be the destruction of all meaning, In many ways finding a way to avoid the heat death could be looked at as the ultimate meaning of life.
If we are to turn this world into a world that is a joy to live in. We have to get over this idea that the best way to take care of ourselves is to aquire more and more personal wealth. This may have been true a few hundred years ago. It was certainly true a few thousand years ago. However with the current global economy, and the advent of the internet it becomes increasingly likely that people who have only been able to affect their local culture will become a valuable asset to us all.
