通往社会可持续发展的道路上布满了障碍、对手和陷阱。这条道路主要是未知的，我们只能想象前方的障碍。通过在我们的脑海中排练障碍会是什么样子以及如何克服它们，我们将为艰苦的探险做好更好的准备。有些障碍是由于意识、知识和信息的缺乏造成的。人们不能有意地改变他们不认知的事物。环境保护的反对者正在设置重大障碍。更多的障碍来自于被困在我们的文化中。意识到这些障碍是找到克服它们的方法的第一步。我为一些障碍提出了可能的解决方案，但其他障碍目前无法解决。
The path to societal sustainability is strewn with barriers, opponents, and traps. That path is mainly uncharted and we can only imagine the barriers that lie ahead. By rehearsing in our minds what the barriers will look like and how they might be surmounted, we will be better prepared for the arduous expedition. Some of the barriers result from deficiencies in consciousness, knowledge, and information. People cannot intentionally change things they do not cognize. Significant barriers are being erected by opponents of environmental protection. Additional barriers stem from being trapped in our culture. Becoming aware of these barriers constitutes the first step toward finding ways to surmount them. I suggest possible solutions for some barriers but others defy solution at this time.
