Correct information and an understanding of what truly constitutes science is extremely important to build scientific attitudes among the people, on whom sustainability activities ultimately depend.k) Another major challenge is to create an economic disaster management system, in case the traditional economic systems fail. Under the current economic systems, businesses cannot proceed without fluid capital. During economic depressions, the fluidity of capital is often reduced. This produces extreme strain on the lower classes of society.l) Another major challenge is to create a democratic think tank, that is independent of private interests. The current democratic systems usually are built on representative democracy, which is primitive and more advanced democratic systems are possible through computers, and internet technologies, which give people direct vote on issues, without the use of a representative. New forms of governance are needed that remove these primitive systems.Date Recue/Date Received 2020-07-04
