摘要
The author argues that short-term goals have led to decision making which does not cater for the future evolutionary health of the human species. It is essential to harmonize short-term actions with long-term desires -and to ensure that those long-term desires are formulated and commonly held. In the context of the many problems facing us, an argument is put forward for a programme of geotherapy and a system of global bioethics which would direct and protect our evolution.
