What a Wonderful World

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of a rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies cry. I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world
O yeah...

Some advice from techno-optimists:
	This video on the left is by Lester Brown - a super-optimist - trying to raise awareness with children who may set policies for a better world, in 40 to 50 years time, once they're adults and have risen to the ranks of power in business and administration. For more details go to the Earth Policy Institute

Some recommended, reliably excellent optimists:

UNEP - "Growth will enhance environmental quality"
WTO - "Free trade will enhance sustainable growth for the poor"
OECD - "Sustainable Growth for Sustaibale Jobs"
ICTSD - "More Growth for a Better Climate"
WBCSD - "Our Vision 2050 for 9 Billion Consumers"
CUTS - "We want to foster inclusive growth policies"

UNCTAD - "United Nations Conference on Trade and Development"

Under sustainable development...

Some recommendations by opinion leaders:

Humanity 'must do more with less,' panel warns
Under sustainable development...

NOTE: Recommendations are taken at face value, on the basis of press releases, media articles, and sometimes so-called "Executive Summaries". Because this is the information that makes the opinion of the (democratic) majorities. The detailed reports are far less important.
