Two things related to the year 2050 today...
The first was a reminder when reading a copy of 'First News' which I was handed at last week's 'Education Show'.
There was a reminder of the Department of Energy and Climate Change online game: 2050
The aim is to reduce the amount of CO2 that is released into the atmosphere, and use a range of sliders to find the best energy balance. A useful website for science as well as geography.
The second was a quote from 'The New North', which I started to read yesterday.
It looks ahead to 2050 when the NORCs (Northern Rim countries) are likely to be far more important than they are now.
Check the RSA website to get the details on the live stream of the talk tonight. I shall be listening !
I really like the description of how the seasons are changing year on year, the demographic transition and the likely future changes, and that's just in the first chapter. A really well-written book, with some challenging ideas. Look forward to reading the rest...
