Private: What sort of future will the 21st century bring?

04-14-2007 - Human World

We’d visited “WorldChanging”:http://www.worldchanging.com/, but didn’t know much about “Alex Steffen”:http://www.worldchanging.com/bios/alex.html – one of the founders of this online magazine and blog – until he visited Austin in the fall of 2006.

It intrigued us when he said, “In the future, let’s hope that people live more _stirring_ lives than they do today.”

We wondered what he meant by that. And we were curious to hear more about WorldChanging’s new “book”:http://www.worldchanging.com/book/. So we called Alex, who is now WorldChanging’s executive editor.

Listen in, as Earth & Sky’s Jorge Salazar talks with Alex about WorldChanging’s vision of a “bright green” future … about what it might take to get there … and about living life in a way that’s more _stirring._
