We have mapped a path from the already familiar landscape of life in 2000 through to the uncharted territories of 2050 and beyond. Your guides are scientists and experts whose ground-breaking work is already creating the new millennium. We do not have a crystal ball, but the research, intuition and imagination of today's leading minds can help us look into the future. At times we may appear irreverent - but never malicious.

  • Scenario Sample: Greedy Frogs, Balanced Humans, and Improvisational Music - The world of FROG! is a familiar world -at least at first. In this scenario, many nations experience a fair degree of economic success; and for almost all, economic growth is the major concern, with sustainable development acknowledged to be important, but not pressing. In the FROG! scenario, people value sustainable development�but it is not the top priority. This is an interesting example of envisioning the future through scenario building.

It requires a well-defined structure, acceptance by the group, and a group leader.
