To be pessimistic means I am shutting down the good energy…in me and around me. Therefore if we were all optimistic we’d have a better world.
I want to feel more optimistic…if everyone would just wake up : )
I think we will muddle through the next 100 years, and paper over problems, at great cost to many many people. But over the longer term, “muddling through” isn’t going to be good enough!
To quote (verbatim) one of my favorite Canadians, Bruce Cockburn, in a CBC interview where he was asked exactly the same question about his personal view of the future of planet earth and human existence on it, his reply was: “…I think we’re all fucked.” Being a student of geo-politics and global macro-economics (even leaving aside for the moment the whole ecology issue) I am still searching for a good enough reason to disagree with that statement.
