"I never think about the future. It comes soon enough," said Albert Einstein, one of this century's greatest thinkers. But he made this comment in 1930, when the 21st century was 70 years away.

Now it is just a little less than 10 years behind us, and much of the world's intellectual and scientific talent is focused on projects that will have implications well into this New Millennium.

The Organization for International Cooperation and Development began to examine some of these ventures in a conference held in December 1997, in Düsseldorf, Germany, and subsequently published a report called 21st Century Technologies...

Seeking alternatives for developing autonomous regeneration of the environment? Tired of pollution causing damaging weather changes because of the choices we citizens make? The climate is our commons; it is the root of the world's communities. Deep thinking will be needed, depending on the dilemma facing Earth. Ecological and economic matters will suffer equally from our emission-based energies. Energy has lasting environmental impacts, something environmentalist groups have warned about for years. Environmentalists are not just people passing moral judgment, they are just keenly aware that resources are finite. Food, fossil fuels and the markets, are global as is their impact. How great it would be if we could green the earth and grow the economy? A cleaner environment contributes to better health, helping us begins by learning how industrial activities can merge into the ecologically sound lifestyle. There is no limit on what we can do if we keep in mind local impact of our production with the moral clarity of our obligation to protect Mother Nature. A new organic Participatory ecology is forming; we can no longer turn blind eyes to the actions of those who pollute. We can preserve future growth by recognizing the problems, establishing protocols, and setting benchmarks for recognizing pollution reduction. Instead of exploiting the earth's natural resources, we will rely on renewable resources to save our legacy. If this makes sense to you, and you're serious about finding a solution for earth restoring technological advances, we'd love to hear your thoughts. Share with us ideas, problems, experiences with new technologies and environmental trends about restoring nature's right to clean water and abundant wildlife.
