A Future In The Present

With the latest scientific and technological advances, our society is now on the cusp of a whole new world of greater possibilities, broader expectations, and extensive innovations. The world is indeed changing, and it is changing for the better—for the most unimaginable possibilities that any human being can imagine. Nonetheless, as we live in a world dominated by science and technology, these are no longer new to us. What we need, we invent; what we foresee, we realize. This is how we build a future for ourselves and for the following generation, and very soon, this will be history to them. But will these advancements ever benefit the generations in the future? To repeat, the world is indeed changing, and what if this time, change means loss? To date, the world's population has now reached an estimation of eight billion people. Aligned to this is the rising need and demand of people on food, shelter, and other basic needs. This is a challenge not only to world leaders, but also to the great minds driving the advancement of the new face of science and technology, for this is a call from people of all nations that must be dealt immediately. But, fully knowing the contributions of science over the past decades, it is easier to say that this problem can be solved and that, despite massive population growth, science and technology can still provide us with a prosperous and sustainable future through: Science, technology, the future, and us is an amalgam of complex and uncertain things. How must we see the world: Is science and technology our future‚ or are we the future of science and technology? We can explain it this way: without science and technology‚ our future would not be shaped for prosperity and sustainability; and without us‚ science and technology would not prosper and sustain. So, humans must work the wonders of science to realize their dreams of a better future. Golden days of prosperity and sustainability await, and there is one other way to make this happen—discipline.
