The Three C's: Conservation, Comprehension and Communication.
If I may substitute the three D's for three C's, it may
appear that we are progressing in the achievement of the human
perception of a systemic thinking (M. Bunge) and the synthetic
building of basic ideas (J.L. Pardos). The tripod upon which
can be firmly supported the future evolution of humanity, the
preservation of its existence and the improvement for a full
development of human progress, may be outlined under the
following three C's:
1st. Conservation, including all sorts of ecosystems,
environmental and ecological concepts, deeply rooted into human
kind since practically 1968 (Paris May 1968 and the Foundation of
the Club of Rome, Academia dei Lincei, also in 1968). The
permanent and progressive awareness of the erosion of the
environment is an irreversible daily reminder of the need for
conservation.
2nd. Comprehension, embracing all sorts of cultural
traditions, races, beliefs, well rooted popular habits and so on.
All this is due to the enormous capability of the human being to
be mobile (more than 1,000 million people are today in a position
to fly somewhere in the world and transplant with their customs
and traditions in a totally different cultural environment).
3rd. Communication, as a basic need fulfilled by the
new and ever-progressing electronic means which are due to change
(Negroponte, 1965) the Atom conception of society, basically
supported on the ideas of "Space and Time", into a Digital
society, volumeless, timeless and rapidly accessible to every
single human being, i.e., through the ever expanding INTERNET.
The fact that the industrial society has placed the human being
in isolation, beyond his familiar environment, increases the need
to communicate more and more among themselves (machines like the
automobile, the lift, the plane, etc., make human beings more
isolated and unable to communicate).
