		<description><![CDATA[The question of how we as a global civilization can achieve a sustainable economic system looms large in my thoughts.  As any economist will tell you, the question of economics is one of scope and scale, but with a population over 6 billion people, our conventional systems and tactics are failing us.  And, while we [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sustainabilitypuzzle.wordpress.com&blog=1805687&post=60&subd=sustainabilitypuzzle&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

It has been an essential medium for both our technological and economic progress and in less than 50 years we have conquered the distances that used to separate and isolate us.
