How To Be An Optimist In A Pessimistic Time

Gapminder WorldIt's no secret to most readers at TechCrunch that technology is changing the world. Unfortunately, there are a surprising number of people who don't get it. Many of them, even more unfortunately, are important leaders in business, other powerful institutions, andmostgovernments. To meet the challenges that face uswhether as leaders of organizations, as leaders of countries, or as the global community addressing our collective challengeswe will only be successful if we unreservedly embrace technology and innovation as essential tools. In effect, the fastest-growing resource in the world is computing power and storage. At a time when resource consumption is growing faster in general than resource production, it is incumbent upon all leaders to take advantage of the resource that technology presents us. It is in large part the fear that existing resources cannot match human needs that drives the thick cloud of pessimism that prevails today in the world.
