The Future Is Now: Jamais Cascio, Co-Founder of World ...

Jamais Cascio is all about solutions. He considers himself an ethical futurist- one who designs and executes resilient and sustainable solutions that will not adversely effect present and future generations. On his blog, OpenTheFuture.com, Jamais writes about three cornerstone issues that will make or break this planet: Global Warming, Global Poverty and Nanotechnology. As he explains in this video All of these are intrinsically connected. If you are to succeed in any one of them, you have to deal with the others...everything is connected. Fortunately, the solutions are connected as well...As these concepts become more commonplace, what happens is they disappear into the woodwork. They really become expectations.

By Co-Founding the site WorldChanging.com (also check out the beautiful World Changing Book), Jamais is helping to make these solutions part of the planetary problem solving vocabulary.

I do not approve of nanny state politics. Real information on tobacco is NOT justification for reverse discrimination that currently exists against smokers.

I want nanites to be all about. I want them fixing problems with my body and all manner of ways. I could see it being possible around 2015 to 2045. Sorry about the energy thing I just read the caption and didn't really listen to the actual movie all the way yet. The energy crisis is an issue.

What about Energy. With no energy to power the nanotechnology we will not be able to use nanotech to solve our problems.
