Massive Development    With in last two century human has reached massive  developments in life style, economy, transportation and weaponry systems. Innovators lead the development by supplying new technologies and new products.  The increase in global population follows a flat line for most of human history but suddenly,  at the turn of the industrial revolution, the line climbs up like a mountain. The same shape shows in  economy, transportation and weaponry systems.  Massive Destruction  Sadly, a graph showing,  the  line shifts to nearly vertical  -  destruction of our environment would have the same shape and would lead to our demise.  What else is threatening that future? Our newly acquired abilities to destroy each other with nuclear weapons and lethal synthetic biology are both terrifying. CRISPR, a gene-editing technology, for example, could be used to help eradicate disease or it could be used to cause harm, such as by genetically modifying bird flu to become airborne.
