Enjoy our recorded Zoom talk with futurist David Wood from "The Elephant Meets..." series

We’re delighted to bring you the edited highlights of the recent Zoom talk (in our The Elephant Meets… series) with futurist, technologist and writer David Wood, founder of the London Futurists network, which took place on Tuesday, July 21st, 2020, 5:00-6.30pm.

The discussion explored David’s optimistic and practical perspective on the next few decades on health and longevity (see his book The Abolition of Aging), the relationship between planetary health and technology (Sustainable Superabundance), and a future-ready politics (Transcending Politics, and his latest RAFT 2035: a roadmap to Abundance, Flourishing, and Transcendence, by 2035).

Many thanks to our A/UK colleague Maria Dorthea Skov for editing and producing the video.

We’ve been talking with David since the beginning of The Alternative UK - there are few thinkers about the future whose vision is both as expansive and detailed, and as thoughtful and compassionate.

Please come to our next The Elephant Meets… Zoom talk on Tuesday, 3rd of August, with Civic Square’s Immy Kaur (information and tickets here).
