A dangerous cognitive dissonance is pervading our society. The earth is finite, yet our leaders seemingly act as though we can go on expanding both population and our per capita demand on resources. As if this stark reality were not enough it is speculated that we are now heading into a period of economic depression and a possible social collapse of sorts, but we continue to party like the bubble will never burst. But prepare we must, and in preparation for what is to come it is not enough to simply know all the different hurdles we must jump – we need to know where each of them appears over a set timeframe. Our greatest need is to identify the first hurdle – because if we fall at the first one we are guaranteed to lose the race.
