I have an open question that’s been rattling around in my brain: in what ways can technology enhance the human species regarding character development? Organisms, cultures, and subgroups with “invasive species” characteristics seem to win at evolution/imperialism/economics, but devastate the local ecosystems that they consume in their expansion. In order to prevent self-destruction, it may be useful for us to consider how we can continue to grow as a species without exhausting the types of resources that we now recognize as finite and non-renewable.
