Now with “Hot Earth Hell” we continue forecasting tomorrow’s news. building on these daily newswire resources, an extensive research base, adding new reports, news of America’s future from leaders and experts worldwide, researching the future they see, what’s coming, that they see ahead … moral insights … irrational as well as logical policies … historical lessons learned and denied … new technologies, the costs and benefits … climate successes and failures … personal stress reduction techniques … and any good news on political and business successes. What’s it all mean, in tomorrows news cycle. But more importantly, the long-term impact on our civilization and the survivability of the planet.
Warning: Since the consequences of global warming are closing in much faster than most want to accept–in the 2020-2047 timeframe–you can expect future Good News reports will be filtered though the lens of behavioral economics, as investing strategies to prepare us to live in peace on a dying planet … how to “invest” successfully in longterm values, regardless of what’s happening on the planet–how you can successfully invest in what really matters to you, your family and friends, good health, faith and spiritual matters, how to continue being of service to the world–values the outside world’s relentless “noise machine” doesn’t want you to pay attention to, for fear they’ll lose the ability to control and manipulate your mind, your choices, your future.
