Our Humanity+ conferences explore innovations of science and technology and their relationship to humanity. Recent conferences have been held at Polytechnic University in Hong Kong, Parsons The New School for Design in New York City, California Technology Institute, and Harvard University. H+ Magazine covers technological, scientific, and cultural trends that are changing humans in fundamental ways. H+ Magazine aims to reflect the newest edge culture by featuring creative expressions of humanity on a razor’s edge where daily life and science fiction seem to be merging. This is a brand new world-wide holiday – the first Future Day is slated for March 1, 2012. Become a “Friend of Future Day” and work with us all together, across the world, to get Future Day off to an incredible start! http://humanityplus.org/

Our website provides a vast database of articles and ideas which examine the future of humanity and how science, technology and evolution may shape our common future. http://www.humansfuture.org/
http://www.acceleratingfuture.com/michael/blog/ Just reposting a comment that was left by "Braking Future" during my haitus... It sure looks pretty bleak around here these days. By the looks of it transhumanism is near dead, certainly very deep into the rehash territory, a mere zombie of what it was 10-20 years ago. What went wrong? Probably nothing. It seems transhumanism has reached one of its main goals: seems everyone involved with H+ gets funded these days, yet nothing much seems to happen.

The World Future Council: WFC - Home

http://www.worldfuturecouncil.org/ Here at the World Future Council we endeavor to bring the interests of future generations to the centre of policy making. We inform policy makers about future just policies and advise them on how to implement these. Political solutions for the challenges of our time exist. One of the themes agreed upon for the UN Conference on Sustainable Development, also known as Rio+20, in June in Rio de Janeiro, is Institutional Framework for Sustainable Development. A large part of the WFC's Future Justice work focuses on improving governance of our global and national commitments to sustainable development, which falls under this theme. The Future Justice team will be attending the negotiations to further raise the proposal for “Ombudspersons for Future Generations”, which, thanks to the intensive campaign work of the WFC and partnering civil society organisations, is partly included in the Zero Draft of the conference's outcome document.
Jamais Cascio , who covers the intersection of emerging technologies and cultural transformation for Fast Company, is in the process of publishing an ‘occasional’ series of articles “about the tools and methods for thinking about the future in a structured, useful way”.

Open the Future

The first one is from the US Energy Information Administration , a group within the US Department of Energy tasked with coming up with independent statistics and analysis on US and world energy use. This chart is from the " International Energy Outlook 2011 " report, released last September. It shows the breakdown of fuels used to generate electricity, given fairly conservative projections of growth and changing energy mix. It shows that, by 2025 -- a little over 10 years from now -- coal will provide 10,200 terawatt-hours (TWh) out of a total of 28,700 TWh produced around the world, annually. By 2035, it's up to 12,900 TWh out of 35,200 TWh. http://www.openthefuture.com/

What is Open Foresight? « emergent by design

http://emergentbydesign.com/2011/03/07/what-is-open-foresight/ We recently introduced the concept of ‘ Open Foresight ’ as a process we’re developing to analyze complex issues in an open and collaborative way, and to raise the bar on public discourse and forward-focused critical thinking. It’s a work in progress and constantly evolving, but here are some of the basic principles we’ve developed so far. 1) What is Open Foresight? If you look around, it’s undeniable that there’s a new global narrative emerging in the way we fundamentally understand ourselves as humanity – how we do business, how we learn, how we generate value together, how we interact.

A Future Without War :: Home

http://www.afww.org/ New Film! "No More War: The Human Potential for Peace Futurist, behaviorist, and evolutionary biologist Dr. Judith Hand presents a compelling argument in her film “No More War” that if we chose to do it, we can achieve what no people before us could: a future without war. She introduces cutting edge hypotheses on the origins of cooperation, altruism and morality, indicating how they relate to the human potential for peace. The origins of war are explored, including a consideration of why men and women, in general, differ when it comes to using physical aggression to resolve conflicts.

His journey takes him to a strange and bizarre world where AI is now taking shape. Marcus meets two robots who are developing their own private language, and attempts to communicate to them. He discovers how a super computer beat humans at one of the toughest quiz shows on the planet, Jeopardy.

Moore's law is an example of futures studies; it is a statistical collection of past and present trends with the goal of accurately extrapolating future trends. Futures studies (also called futurology ) is the study of postulating possible, probable, and preferable futures and the worldviews and myths that underlie them. There is a debate as to whether this discipline is an art or science. In general, it can be considered as a branch of the social sciences and parallel to the field of history . In the same way that history studies the past, futures studies considers the future.
