on earth day at end of march 2022 , colleges are planning to hosts conversations exceeding 1 million students - here's a map of some early participants; this process is quite mature with published results from previous years but after mutual participation in glasgow cop26 the  target to be scaled over a million participants is going to take a lot of human energy

i am at chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc region  and glasgow so i am aware of both sides of the atlantic gap, and since i am now in my 40th year of mainly making a living researching asia's sustainable/youth needs i am happy to try to share what i know where - like everyone i can see pieces of a big jigsaw i am here to learn missing pieces that i can help others connect

if you are wanting to participate as a college mail me chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk and i will intro you to the main organisers; if you have an idea for some other community movement i am exploring various processes eg the social app nextdoor.com and we can work out who is the main coordinator of the conversations you want to progress

I am also the co-author of the 1984 book www.2025report.com which applied 140 years of diaries from the economist (+ nearly 100 more from adam smith) and 30 years of diaries from von neumann (dad norman macrae was both von neumann's biographer and subeditor of entrepreneurial revolution futures at the economist); so in my view we aill cannot understate the urgency of collaboration challenges we have left the younger half of the world to be last chance entrepreneurial resolvers - this goes not only for climate but all 5 primary sdgs as mapped at www.economistwomren.com - somehow or another neumanns tech will either be the solution on the exponential driver of extinction

ideas welcome if you are on youth's side
