Editor’s note: I am in eastern Montana this week following my own advice and taking a “Think Week.” This week’s “Future 5” will be short. I have placed little editorial comment next to any of the articles. My advice: Just pick one article that intrigues you and spend a few minutes reflecting on it. Cheers, Jack
Think Bigger: LA Start-up is Using Recycled Plastic to 3D Print Houses.
Think Like a Futurist (and a Child): A Project in Mississippi Equips Children With a Future Mindset.
Think Fast: How John Deere Plans to Build a World of Autonomous Farming by 2030.
Think Faster: Amazon Robots are Getting Ready to Replace Human Hands. (Amazon’s robots are able to load 1,000 items an hour).
Think Green: “A Growing Machine:” Scotland Looks to Vertical Farming to Boost Tree Stock. (Using artificial light it can grow saplings 6X faster!)
Afterthought: “One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen, again and again, fear must be overcome again and again.”–Abraham Maslow
