A Snapshot Of The Challenges We Face As A Global Culture

This is one reverently beautiful but problematic world.

On the one hand, we’ve developed a robust society with ingenious technological and scientific advances which has spread information and resources to the deepest corners of our stunning planet. Smart, resourceful and energised, our species is now interconnected as a global culture and every human is a part of it, regardless of their race, culture and individual identity. As it should be, most humans are compassionate, caring and creative creatures too. I discuss ‘The New Age of a United Global Culture’ here.

On the other hand, our communities are plagued with inequality, manipulation and disconnection – consequences of ideological warfare and systemic dysfunction. In many ways, this is a pained planet.
