The future of nanotechnology is being defined right now, with the release of the long awaited Royal Society report. The BBC speculates about its contents and we have already commented on the possible outcome.
Jim Thomas of ETC raises one of the most irrelevant questions of the week “What does it mean for the poor, disabled, the disadvantaged – people who are usually left out of the debate?” NanoWater and the work Tim Harper is currently putting in place with the United Nations Development Program should answer that question.
In the meantime, stop whining man, pull yourself together, and do something positive. Technology is there to be used, and we all have a choice on how it will be used. Holding it back isnt an option in the global marketplace.
