[GMW #4234] Practice World-Wide Pastology - Going Beyond Recording Facts & Events

[GMW #4234] Practice World-Wide Pastology - Going Beyond Recording Facts & Events   Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4622 ~
We have an enormous world-wide, incredibly sophisticated and detailed field of knowledge called history, but we are missing

a real science of it which I would call pastology, the twin science of the future, futurology.

People dealing with that science would be called pastologists as distinct from historians. Their science would go far beyond the mere recording of facts and events to which most current history is limited.

When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don't state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.
~ Lewis Carroll

[GMW #4233] New World Days Of - The Future, Dreams, Visions, Ideas

[GMW #4233] New World Days Of - The Future, Dreams, Visions, Ideas   Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4621 ~
I recommend that four more World Days should be added to the World Days celebrated by humanity on planet Earth:
a World Day of the Future
a World Day of Dreams
a World Day of Visions
a World Day of Ideas

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living
Volume II - The Art of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 4 - On Positive Living
Do not compress, diminish or stifle the capacities and willingness for life and happiness in yourself and in others.

On the contrary, help them flower, give them ground for growth and expansion.

Never be pessimists or life-diminishers.

If you cannot be positive and inspiring,
at least be silent.

WORD FOR THE DAY
Help me to be less fearful of the measure of time, and more fully alive in the time that simply is. Help me to live time, not just to simply use it; to breathe it in, and return it in acts of love and presence.

[GMW #4232] Reconcile - Rich Countries Decreasing Population, Poor Countries Increasing Population

[GMW #4232] Reconcile - Rich Countries Decreasing Population, Poor Countries Increasing Population Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4620 ~
The following are recent quite new fundamental factors in the world human population situation:

The fact that despite their poverty, the peoples of the poor countries (4.7 billion) continue to give profusely birth to children out of pure love or love making and are not influenced by the prospect that these children might be very poor, many remaining uneducated and unable to find employment. By the year 2050 their total population is expected to be a staggering 7.75 billion (an increase of 3.05 billion).

At the same time the people of the rich countries (1.2 billion) have less and less children and are expected to lose 40 million members by the year 2050, falling down to 1.16 billion.

This calls urgently for yet another United Nations World Population Conference.

The above will indeed have vast repercussions. I just mention two of them:
1) what will be the future evolution of planet Earth, of its economy, of its social aspects, migrations, human settlements, etc. in such a situation?
2) how will, among others, universities in rich and in poor countries conceive their role and future in such a situation?

Another big new factor in the world has come up: the unprecedented increase of human longevity, expected to further increase to 82 years in the rich countries and 70 years in the poor ones by the year 2050.

[GMW #4231] Reserve One Third Of Each Country For Biological Reserves, National Parks, Nature Reserves & Protected Zones

[GMW #4231] Reserve One Third Of Each Country For Biological Reserves, National Parks, Nature Reserves & Protected Zones  Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4619 ~
All countries of Earth should agree that at least one third of their territory should be excluded, prohibited to development, following the example of Costa Rica where one third of the country is protected by biological reserves, national parks, nature reserves and protected zones.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living
Volume II - The Art of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 4 - On Positive Living
There is a deep happiness in the expectation of a forthcoming happiness.

This is part of individual futurology.

Humans have the wonderful capacity to look ahead, to live in the future, to expect and to plan. This is a manifestation of the will for life. Our expectations of the future are much more positive than negative: if not, the certainty of death would destroy all our efforts and illusions.

Humans are fundamentally a positive species.

romantic and emotional attitude,
