- My key point is that there are many forces – mostly critical uncertainties – in the futureSo if we are to imagine a new kind of – science centre, or anything, we have to Consider how to think about the future. Look at what are the most powerful influencing factorsAnd then how the critical situation offers opportunities for us to reshape science itself, science education and science centres
- Gamechangers aid progress. A BS can radically disrupt all megatrends.
- Critical uncertainties are becoming immeasurably more significant than trends. VUCA. By far the biggest factors will be environmental – the Earth is approaching a critical state shift in 2 or 3 decades, with growing disruption until then. Yes, we can be excited about technology e.g. the real time global map that helps us see storms. The cause of this disruption is technology that has powered a linear extractive economy, and an addiction to fossil fuels.
