Welcome

Thanks for dropping by. The time has come to create our future.
We need to act now to ensure our children and their children have even a better world than we do.

Bottom Line

There are over 6 billion of us. We need to share resources with everyone. We need to leave some for future generations. That is Everyone Forever. This is our duty.

Challenges

The challenges we face are huge. Climate change is a symptom of a much larger issue. We are using too much of just about everything. As more people in the world work to raise their standard of living, the cost of everything used to sustain modern society will rise.

Yes We Can

Fortunately, our ability to work together to met challenges and use them as an opportunity to create even a better world is much greater than we imagine. Our cities, technology, art and literature are all testimonies to our achievements.

Scared to Act

Discussions of a bleak future are only useful if they encourage people to act. If people are left feeling hopeless, they are likely to be self-fulfilling prophecies.

Solutions Now

We already know what we need to know. Thinking that new technology will be the solution can give people an excuse not to act upon solutions that exist now. Technology can help but blindly trusting it is a risk that it is not ours to take.

Commitment & Creativity

Problems only exist due to a lack of will to solve them. Once we commit to solutions, seemingly intractable problems are no longer any problem at all.

No One Left Behind

Choosing to live our lives today in a way that everyone in the world today and everyone in future generations could live their lives is the only option. Anything else creates a world of winners and losers. There is no guarantee that you and me will be the winners in the future. Only by dedicated and selfless leadership can we create a future of hope for everyone.

Family Friends and Fun

What truly provides happiness in life has little relationship to how much we consume. Family, friends and fun are all that really matters.
The truth must go on!

Cycling in Copenhagen

Cleaner air, exercise, affordable transportation and jobs. In an uncertain world, investing billions in bicycle paths makes more sense than ever.

Lets face it. Train travel can be a great way of getting around. Being forced to wait at airports before being crammed into a stuff plane is just plain miserable. High-speed rail is finally coming to North America.

The Relentless March of Inevitability

Car Free Vancouver

How's that for a title. I wrote this a few months ago. On MLK day to be exact. Now that the Beijing Olympics are over it is time to really start creating a lasting legacy. Here is my take on what could indeed be great outcome. Lets go for the gold!

Climate Change is my Fault

Polar Bear

Well, it is time to buck up to my responsibility. Its my fault. I admit it. Guilty as charged. Now that that is our of the way, it is time to do better.

Well, I finally have this site up. I've had the domain for over a year. Guess you could say I got blogged down. Anyway, welcome everyone. I promise my next post will come a bit quicker. A new sense of urgency I hope is contagious.
