In the mid-1700’s In England, Europe and the United States witnessed the start of the Industrial Revolution that was to last in four distinct cycles until the mid-20th Century. During this period, many of the inventions introduced made work easier and faster, leading to production and manufacturing becoming a dominant focus and also contributing to a massive migration from farms to cities. Together these two elements dramatically and quickly changed the world in many ways.
However, as we have learned over the last 70 years, much of the widespread optimism that technology and innovation would eventually solve all of our problems has not been proven true. Technology has not eliminated poverty, disease, violence and many other significant challenges. Indeed, technology and innovation have actually created other serious problems.
For this reason, in our Technologies of Hope series we are turning our attention to a different kind of of technologist and innovator whose imaginations, skills and talents can mitigate some of the damage we, in our quest for power, profit and control, have created and still important advances to society in our quest to ensure our survival and that of our habitat.
