Why Think Long Term? A Long Now Boston Panel Discussion

Join Long Now Boston at the Cambridge Science Festival for a thought-provoking panel discussion on "Why Think Long Term?"

This event brings together members of Long Now Boston to share their insights on deep-time ideas, exploring how we can cultivate a mindset that considers the far-reaching impacts of our actions today. From becoming a good ancestor to integrating long-term thinking into our daily lives, this discussion will challenge you to rethink how you engage with time and legacy.

The panel will also delve into the ways different time scales interact, from the rapid shifts in fashion and society and culture to the enduring forces of infrastructure and geology. Whether you're curious about how to make more sustainable decisions or interested in the broader implications of our choices for future generations, this discussion offers a unique opportunity to explore the power and potential of long-term thinking. Don’t miss this chance to engage with ideas that could reshape how you see the present—and the future.

In the Cambridge Public Library, we will be in the Rossi Room.
