From this point on, business as usual is dead. You must embrace the change. Trust in science for the solutions ahead, but understand its power. Look toward the natural world to forecast the waves of impact each solution creates and then recreates as the technologies intersect.

You’ve spent the past several weeks wondering when you can return to normal life. The next few months will unfold to reveal why the right question to be asking isn’t “When will things go back to normal?” but rather “How can we make sure the world we come back to is a fairer and more humane one?

In order to make the shift to the new normal at the speed required, then you, the people, are both the obstacle and the opportunity. Now, all you need is the willpower and collective action to make it happen.

There is only one direction. Become better humans. If you fail to grow your collective character your future will be a helpless existence on a dying planet.
