We must adapt or perish. We have always been able to adapt so far. But that's why we are still here now. We are lucky to have developed larger brains and opposable thumbs and the ability to make tools. But what happens when the fossil fuels run out in a few more thousand years? Or Sooner in another couple hundred years. What do we do then? Should we wait until it's too late or should we start figuring out what to do now. I feel that we need to prepare our next generations for the future today not later. But then again most of us wait until the last minutes before doing our homework or writing that report. Now don't we? We wait until the last minute to start our projects. But the smart guys get their work down sooner rather than later at the last minute.
