Maybe the best solution to this dilemma is to build a vision for what a future world I’d like to live in will look like, and then set about making that happen. This vision may seek to address some big problem: CO2 emissions, for example. But it won’t do anything for, say, AIDS in Africa. AIDS in Africa is someone else’s problem. At some point I have to restrict my vision or it simply won’t happen. How to dice up the problems of the world?
