Creating the World We Want
by NewView.Media
Bob Massie and Tom Dodge have teamed up to engage the most creative leaders of our day in conversations on long-term solutions to society's most pressing problems. What kind of world do we want to live in? And how can we create it? These questions should be at the heart of every personal and public discussion – and yet too often they are not. At the very moment when technology is increasing, too many are losing the desire and the agency to imagine a better future. Dystopian visions of the future fill our newspapers, our media, and our minds. We reject that. As the title of our program suggests, we want to take control of the future and shape it for the good. We are not powerless drones, but human beings with imagination and power.
