One thing I feel confident about is ETs are wise and friendly and thus won't harm us should they be there! My conjuncture is that phase transition on the intelligence scale happens only if we tame our egos and become collectively conscious! These creatures respect life and intelligence. Thus, they could be quietly observing us and praying for us to reach beyond ego towards oneness. Not enough place to talk about the phase transition dynamics!

Origins of Life | Institute for Advanced Study
Origins of Life | Institute for Advanced Study: "To put it in the form of questions: “Where did matter come from?” “How did matter become alive?” and “How did living beings develop the capacity to ask these three questions?” Fortunately, modern science is now making inroads toward providing at least some answers to some aspects of these questions, while suggesting more precise ways to pose the questions."

"There are obvious differences between developed and developing countries in the extent to which science policy and governancecontribute to progress, and in how successfully this has been done. But how can we best go about using science to ‘invent the future’?"

"ATPS Board Member, Prof. Turner Isoun, launches a book: “Why Run Before Learning to Walk? Reflections of High Technology as a Strategic Tool for Development in Nigeria”. In this book, which is a must-read for all development practitioners, especially those interested in sustainable development in the developing and emerging economies, Prof. Isoun reflects on high technology support by necessary appropriate systems is the answer to Africa’s development struggle; drawing on his outstanding expertise in STI and also his long years of service as Honourable Minister for Science and Technology in the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The book demonstrates that STI-led development is a leadership endeavour, and why investments in STI ought to be the priority policy goal for policy makers in the developing world."

Just Transitions: Explorations of Sustainability in an Unfair World: Mark Swilling, Eve Annecke: 9789280812039: Amazon.com: Books
"The book considers the theme of a just transition, which reconciles the sustainable use of natural resources with a pervasive commitment to sufficiency (where overconsumers are satisfied with less so that underconsumers can secure enough). It explores a range of different viewpoints and ideas and synthesizes them to illuminate new ways of thinking from a sustainability perspective. It rethinks development with special reference to the greening of the developmental state, explores the key role that cities could play in the transition to a more sustainably urbanized world, and highlights the neglect of soils in the global discussions around the potential of sustainable agriculture to feed the world."

Reality ain't that real!
Again, our physical material reality really ISN’T physical at all. The meaning, significance and implications of these findings within our quantum world have led to a plethora of ideas and theories, some of which lay inside the label of “pseudo-science.” This article will present scientific evidence that clearly shows the connections between consciousness and what we call reality and how these can no longer be denied. It will also ponder the implications of this knowing, and how this realization plays an important role in the potential transformation of our planet, at a time when we need it the most. - See more at: http://www.collective-evolution.com/2013/12/05/the-illusion-of-matter-our-physical-material-world-isnt-really-physical-at-all/#sthash.b7ZDUoRd.dpuf

The creation of the universe.
The creation of the universe.
"Among the many curious implications of Linde's theory, one stands out for our present purposes: It doesn't take all that much to create a universe. Resources on a cosmic scale are not required. It might even be possible for someone in a not terribly advanced civilization to cook up a new universe in a laboratory. Which leads to an arresting thought: Could that be how our universe came into being?"
