The global economy is in crisis. The exponential exhaustion of natural resources, declining productivity, slow growth, rising unemployment, and steep inequality, forces us to rethink our economic models. Where do we go from here? In this feature-length documentary, social and economic theorist Jeremy Rifkin lays out a road map to usher in a new economic system. A Third Industrial Revolution is unfolding with the convergence of three pivotal technologies: an ultra-fast 5G communication internet, a renewable energy internet, and a driverless mobility internet, all connected to the Internet of Things embedded across society and the environment. This 21st century smart digital infrastructure is giving rise to a radical new sharing economy that is transforming the way we manage, power and move economic life. But with climate change now ravaging the planet, it needs to happen fast. Change of this magnitude requires political will and a profound ideological shift.

@Tedtally2 years ago Hi vice. Hi jeremy. I am somewhere between a follower of ned ludd and a follower of jean luc picard. I am excited for many of these (possible) changes i love working on cars. I love it. It' s one of the most white trash markers of my identity that i fully embrace, even though i' ve been a labor, political, and community organizer in order to eat for most of the past fifteen years.
these transitions, for what may or may not be a " rare bird" like myself, must include how we can remain physical bodies engaged with and connected to our physical world. I like that connection. I likethem, trimming them, cutting them down when need be. I like mechanical stuff and the fact that the old cars that don' t require the latest version of ms office are accessible to me to lego and tinker with. I like cds and albums.
in short: i am a sucker for the sensate world.
i have tried to imagine how to transition oregon' s economically depressed coastal towns that used to be timber towns into paying positions that are more vital and productive but still allow the dirt to get under your fingernails. I imagine someone whose parent logged trees because s/he loved the smell and feel of the forest being able to have a job in the same place, with the same solitude in nature essential to a healthy ego that knows it ain' t the alpha or omega because it' s able to see its own smallness out there and have nature fill thethe one who is planting a bio-diverse future of trees is simultaneously living the tradition of their ancestor while doing the needed and productive thing out there today (planting rather than reaping what nature has sewn.
i understand that i' m screaming into the nothingness, but i do hope the nothingness has ears to listen.
thank you. This is a reallypiece. ...Expand 27
