Sociological Mindfulness and YOU

Theoretical physicist Michio Kaku explains the progression of Human society. Civilizations are classified into Type 0, 1, 2, and 3. We are currently a Type 0 civilization. If you're interested, google it. He has YouTube videos for those who can't be bothered with a book. But anyways,

Sociological mindfulness is vital in the progress of Human society. Progress as a civilization is defendant on more than progress in science and medicine. Humans themselves must progress, both as individuals and as a group. We have survived due to individual ingenuity, but on the evolutionary scale, humans have existed for only a moment. Imagine the life of the Earth as a fingernail. The material that comes off from running a file against the nail but once represents the life of Humans on Earth.

If we hope to survive on a galactic level, we must learn to think as a society as opposed to concerning ourselves with individual interests. Seriously, think long-term.
