Quote of Note: Al Gore
"This new consciousness requires expanding the possibilities inherent in all humanity. The innovators who will devise a new way to harness the sun’s energy for pennies or invent an engine that’s carbon negative may live in Lagos or Mumbai or Montevideo. We must ensure that entrepreneurs and inventors everywhere on the globe have the chance to change the world."

I like the second to the last paragraph.
One of my big worries is that changing infrastructure and societies is too slow given the rate of change. We need to worry about new tech, but if we rely on it, we may have lost.
