The future is ours to shape, creating a sustainable world for future generations is the message from Chunka Mui, co-founder of the Future Histories Group. In a recent interview on the Earth911 Podcast, Mui, along with Paul Carroll and Tim Andrews, authors of “A Brief History of a Perfect Future,” discussed their vision for a sustainable and just world by 2050.
The book outlines the role of technology, including computation, telecommunications, and genetics, in creating a cleaner, more efficient economy. Innovations in energy, water management, and transportation are highlighted as key elements in achieving a sustainable future.
Drawing inspiration from Alan Kay’s quote that the best way to predict the future is to invent it, the authors present a roadmap to navigate the challenges ahead and create a sustainable future. The book encourages readers to explore new ideas and solutions to address climate change and social inequality. “A Brief History of a Perfect Future” is available for purchase on Amazon and at Powell’s Books.
