Google library project named as one of ten most important emerging technologies for humanity by futurist Mike Adams Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

REPPED: The Google library project -- an ambitious effort to digitize hundreds of thousands of texts from prestigious libraries -- has been named the single most important emerging technology for humanity by futurist Mike Adams in his free downloadable ebook, "The Ten Most Important emerging technologies For Humanity." In the downloadable book, available at TruthPublishing.com, Adams cites the Global Electronic Library as the #1 technology needed to uplift humanity due to its ability to enhance the accessibility of knowledge.

The Global Electronic Library is only one of ten emerging technologies cited by Adams as important for humanity. Others include augmented reality systems, where humans can interact with their natural environments through the help of virtual overlays that project objects, content, and even animated, interactive human characters onto the real world. Superlearning systems, practical robots, vibrational medicine and fuel cell technologies are also cited in Adams' book.

Emerging technology is not the answer to the world's social and economic problems Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I think a lot of times when people talk about these emerging technologies, it's just a lot of hyping, someone trying to get a lot of grant money, or somebody just trying to attract some attention talking about something that really isn't practical. You see this with nanotechnology all the time. "Nanotech, nanotech." It's nanotech all the time. Why? Because that's what gets you grant money in the scientific community these days. If you look at the statistics today, and you think about how many researchers and scientists are working on "nanotechnology," you think, "Gee, this field is exploding.

Gene therapy and genetic engineering: the future of medicine? Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I have discussed some of these in my book "The Top 10 Most Important emerging technologies for Humanity," which is available for downloading free of charge at www.truthpublishing.com. In the book, I argue that genetic engineering is indeed an important technological advance for not only the success of our species, but also for enhancing the health of our population. I'd like to talk about genetic engineering for a moment, but to preface it with the recognition that we, as a society, are nowhere near the level of maturity and ethics required for manipulating the genetic code.

And when the robot industry really gains steam, it's going to be Honda, Toyota and other Japanese companies owning the global market. So what do we do to protect U.S. jobs in manufacturing industries? Forget about protectionism. What we need to do as a nation is invest in education so that we spur a new generation of smart, creative thinkers who can compete globally.

The way artists use and misuse emerging technologies in their work can prompt deeper reflection about our society and its relationship to technology than a two hundred-page report written by eminent sociologists can. But what really sets such work apart is its frequent exploration of issues that are immediately and achingly relevant. Scientific advancements, technological change, or notions about the environment fall into sharp relief when artists use familiar electronic detritus as raw material.

Let's go beyond hydrogen and also look at ethanol and water, at electric motors, at hybrids, at emerging technologies of fuel cells, cold fusion, zero point energy, the latest solar photovoltaic technology, at everything reasonable—no stones unturned. My hunch is that hydrogen will be an integral part of this clean-fuel economy, but we shouldn't restrict ourselves to preconceived baseline scenarios. And we must make sure things work and are thoroughly tested before we move ahead.

Despite such radical emerging technologies, Congress recently diminished the regulatory powers of the FDA after drug companies lobbied to relax the standards of safety and efficacy while shortening the lengthy, expensive timelines required to gain drug approval. Using dangerous and fearsome diseases such as cancer and AIDS as justifications, the pharmaceutical manufacturers want to save money and lessen their liability despite lowering the bar for drug-safety testing and effectiveness. A new law took effect in 1999 that implements these changes.

New technologies have created new markets and new demands—and high prices. emerging technologies of the future are likely to make the current "new" technologies look like bargains. Creating the Demand: The Sky's the Limit How realistic is it for Americans to expect to benefit from all these new technologies? Would not being able to benefit from the new wonders be considered rationing? It's a dilemma. We have created a health care culture with a "sky's the limit" attitude. Corporate America and the medical profession have sold the philosophy of limitless progress to America.
