Preventing global disasters and preparing for the global and local disaster we can’t prevent.
Fuzed Trilogy is a fiction series highlighting the top three global disasters facing humanity, but with an advisory board of experts, it provides real-world solutions. It’s currently under development as a TV mini-series titled Impact (TED talk).
Disaster Prepping for Dummies provides the strategies required to prepare for and survive global, local and even personal disasters.
HUMANITY VERSUS NATURE: Scientists recently used declassified data from the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty’s monitoring system to recalculate the impact rate. Turns out impacts big enough to obliterate a city or continent may be 10 times more likely than we thought. Surprisingly, the top two potentially apocalyptic disasters facing humanity, asteroid/comet impacts and solar superstorms, are preventable. For the first time in history, we have the technology to completely prevent or mitigate these cataclysms … if we act.
HUMANITY VERSUS OUR CREATIONS: Computer processing power and Artificial Intelligence are doubling every two years. Global competition with construction of huge AI data centers is accelerating. With plans to tap the unused processing power in millions of EVs and billions of smartphones, AI super intelligence may be only a couple years away. Add plans for hundreds of solar powered AI data centers in orbit along with millions of humanoid robots now in production … we have a plot right out of an apocalyptic science fiction.
HUMANITY VERSUS HUMANITY: Nuclear warfare remains a risk and biological threats are increasing due to the growing availability of biotechnology tools that even small labs can use to edit DNA. Add to this, micro-drones, facial recognition, RFID tags and global surveillance technology, and the ability to monitor, track and influence everything we do has never been greater. George Orwell’s apocalyptic movie 1984 never imagined a world where your beliefs and even your genome can be manipulated.
