ENERGY AND CHANGE




We would rather be ruined than changed We would rather die in our dread Than climb the cross of the moment And let our illusions die - W. H. AUDEN


Every generation needs a new Revolution

- THOMAS JEFFERSON








There are not enough economists in the world to calculate the trillions of dollars worth of real estate that would be lost in a scenario like this. Nor are there enough social scientists to count the hundreds of millions of people who would be displaced. You think the world is a chaotic place now? Just wait. - ROLLING STONE


We’re screwed. <sic>

- RICHARD ALLEY


• People oppose innovation even when it seems to be in their best interest • Technologies that are a leap forward from predecessors or have none,

are more easily adopted. • Resistance to new technologies from 3 key constituents • Those with commercial interest in existing products • Those who identify with existing products • Those who might lose power as a result of change • People don’t fear new technology, the fear the loss it will bring.

• Technologists don’t consider the impact of their inventions on society.
