Hey Jessitizens of the World

In relative terms, the world has seen a remarkable level of stability with no great wars and the rise of machines and technology making our lives so much better and lifting many of the world's population out of poverty. This "stability" has brought about a level of complacency that things will always go the same way and that as long as it doesn't involve me its okay. We see natural disasters and wars in certain .parts of the world, but we write them off and move on. 

All it takes is a few thoughts and prayers and a trending hashtag to satisfy the masses, and we've done our part for humanity, and we can go back to the overconsumption we enjoy today. As the saying goes, if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you always get, but this doesn't apply to certain things where the resources are finite, and the theory of diminishing returns comes into play.

It is a case of we do what we always do, and we get less of what we got. The ability of humans not to be able to break certain biases means that we cannot see what is right in front of us as we compare the road ahead with the way behind us. 

If we do not course correct external factors, correct things for us in uncomfortable ways.

## Cryptocurrency

Fiat money has been abused for years as it has been our silver bullet to solve all problems, as long as we can print more money we will print our way into prosperity or so the theory goes. All we have done is borrowed more production and wealth from future generations in a short-sighted cash grab that will see future generations have to deal with the fallout. All fiat money is on various decline rates to zero, and because of this, cryptocurrency was born as a hedge against it. 

We can see its unstoppable power as more people move into the blockchain space each day, and it will change the world in more ways than one. 

## Climate Change

Regardless of where you stand on this issue, resources are running short, and if we are to continue our way of life and even improve our standard of living, we will need to change the way we produce and distribute energy. If we do not want course correct the world will do it for us, as resources run short you cannot print your way to more oil or more natural gas, money cannot solve a shortage. As competition for resources increases, millions if not billions will die if we do not find alternative means of power generation that can be scaled and made cheaper over time. 

## Corona Virus

Regardless of the origins of the coronavirus, the outbreak is here and is reaching critical levels with over 100 000 cases reported and the virus looking as if it's speeding up its spread each day. Our fragile world economy is based on many half-truths, and whole lies and Chinas exponential growth came at the expense of centralising a lot of the world's production. China has become an integral part of the world's economy, and this left us openly exposed. 

If the virus has taught us anything its that we should be securing local means of production and decentralising more industries to make it more robust and not simply go for the easiest and cheapest option in China due to their economic policies

The coronavirus will put pressure on the world to wake up from a lot of the sedated ways we've been running things and focusing more on profit than on adding value through our means of production. 

Change is coming due to these three C's whether you like it or not, it will be sweeping change, and those who prepare for it will be better off once the dust settles. 

## Have your say

What do you good people of steem think? Do you believe change is coming if you like it or not?
