My blog entries, of course ;-). Wait a minute... aren't you the man who
says we cannot plan or predict these sort of changes/revolutions -- only
do whatever things we can ... lay the ground ... create the
opportunities ... etc... (something I agree with!).
Seriously: the answer is indeed beyond me. I do not know if and how
humans will change their attitude towards the world. In fact, I am not
even certain they need to... after all my POV may be wrong.
Perhaps change of attitude comes from committed, consistent, grassroots
effort. Or from the rise of a charismatic leader. Or from buyer's
remorse (if not too late by then). If Deepak Chopra can attract the
audiences he can, there is definitely a need, if unmet, among the populace.
Supposedly, the evangelicals have adopted eco-stewardship (did I just
make that word up?) as one of their callings. So the change might even
come from such unlikely sources.
