Together with 2 fellow futurists and initiators, Glen Hiemstra and David Houle, I recently started an exciting new project named after Buckminster Fuller's meme "The Fork in the Road".
The idea of The Fork In The Road Project is to use bold futuristic narratives, deep foresight and unique story-telling approaches to dramatically accelerate the global debate on the following 4 issues (and others, tbd):
1. Dealing with the climate crisis so that humans and all life can continue to flourish 2. Designing new economic and political frameworks, based on sustainable principles 3. Managing exponential, scientific and technological progress 4. Governing human enhancement, longevity, and human genome editing so that progress continues while consequences are carefully considered

We will shortly publish a version without the silences in-between :)) Read more at https://forkintheroadproject.com/ Sign the Manifesto https://forkintheroadproject.com/manifesto/ Audio from 2nd Forker Meeting https://forkintheroadproject.com/blog/
