This 'discussion page' is currently used to hold notes for the development of this website (however it can still be used for discussion)

Find reference about humanity due to generate more information in the next 10 years than in the previous 100.

Non-elemental resources such as fresh water, useful compounds, crude oil etc.

Ultimate solar when photovolataic coatings become cheap and efficient enough: covering pavements, roads and roofs.

Note about undersea ore, not just from land.
