The following TED talk delivered by Bill Gates speaks of his one wish to halve the cost of energy while simultaneously reducing carbon output from the production of energy to zero. He speaks of energy miracles and explains his preference for a particular miracle he favours.

David Cameron suggests the wisdom of yesteryear can be brought to fruition through modern technological tools.
“The gross national product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education, or the joy of their play; it does not include the beauty of our poetry of the strength [...]
In no particular order I list some quotes that have relevance to the intentions of Kahatika.
“For it is in giving that we receive.” ~ St. Francis of Assisi
“All communication must lead to change” ~ Aristotle

Having just written about a Crisis of Trust I must recognise that, as a society, we still trust.
