Unplugged, yet plugged in, in 2030

WorldChanging: The Unplugged - A Speculative Fiction -- Touting their movement as a combination of the economic theories of Mahatma Gandhi and the political science of Buckminster Fuller the Unplugged have now reduced the GDP of the United States of America by 20% over their 15 year programme. Opponents of the movement call Unplugging an unscientific and cult-like political movement, but proponents say that "Unplugging" was the best decision they ever made. ...

Certainly speculative, but rich with interesting possibilities. The scenario is worth exploring; some of this stuff "sticks to the wall" when you throw it up there. As I've mentioned before, WorldChanging is well worth taking a look if you are interested in trying to build a better future.
