Lots of Future News to share this amazing week in time, as we reflect and look more deeply about who we are. We are hoping we’ll make it at least to a Type I civilization, which we discuss in this show. Perhaps appreciation of hummingbirds and their UV super vision will wake us up to the bigger story in which we play. Check out our links page this week, as we discuss many of the stories there, as we head toward a very bright future, not despite, but because of the adversities that we are facing as a species.
