THE FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY




The two videos below represent different ends of the climate change adaptation spectrum.  The first, STONE LINES, illustrates the use of a basic adaptive technology already utilised to great effect in an arid region of Africa.   The second video by Dr Michio Kaku is purely philosophical and centres around the possible utopia created by NANOTECHNOLOGY.   





  1. Which of these two videos best applies to a future Earth?  Does it depend on the path the global economy takes?
  2. Will technology answer the climate change conundrum after all?  If so, as humans thrive, what will happen to other species?  What will the surface of the planet look like? 
  3. What technology do feel will have the biggest impact over the next century, and what will be its effects?
