If the answer is over there, then weโre off the hook. If it comes from the future, comes from away, comes from someone else, then our job is to simply wait for it to arrive.
But it could be that your organization already has all the resources it needs to change the dynamic in the marketplace. It could be that your keyboard has all the letters needed to allow you to type the book you have inside you. And the interactions weโre struggling withโthe fear is inside us, but so is the bravery and generosity we need to move forward.
The solution isnโt coming. The solution is already here.
Solar and wind are already cheaper than the alternatives. We have the tech in hand to make a serious dent in our climate problem. Medicine is waiting on some silver bullet magic cures, but in the meantime, doctors have developed the expertise and the tools to alleviate the suffering of billions. Off-grid energy for two billion people is a solved problem waiting for distribution and implementation.
In a rapidly evolving world, hope is a natural response when things are always getting better/getting worse.
Acting like we have what we need already, though, gives us the chance to take action right here and right now.
