2020 upended every aspect of our lives. But where is our world
heading next? Will pandemic, economic instability, and social
distance lead to deeper inequalities, more nationalism, and further
erosion of democracies around the world? Or are we moving toward a
global re-awakening to the importance of community, mutual support,
and the natural world? In our lifetimes, the future has never been so
up for grabs.
The New Possible
offers twenty-eight unique visions of what can be, if instead of
choosing to go back to normal, we choose to go forward to something
far better. Assembled from global leaders on six continents, these
essays are not simply speculation. They are an inspiration and a
roadmap for action.
