Science and the World's Problem 科学与世界难题
In saying that the world is at a crossroads created by science and
technology I know I am notthe first. But mankind cannot afford to hesitate in
indecision. There is only one choice for us. We must begin to move along the
road to a better future for all the peoples of the world and wemust do this
now.
By the end of the 20th century, the population of the world might have been
doubled. Inattempting to ensure food, clothing and a dignified standard of life
for this enormous host ofpeople we must use every weapon that science and
technology can give us. There are obviousdifficulties for the less developed
areas in doing this — for example, lack of capital, differencesin social
structure and inadequate knowledge.
Our strategy to overcome these difficulties must be total. We have to look
at world problemsas a whole, that is, try to better our understanding of the
complex interactions between themultitude of development activities. We already
know the great gifts that science andtechnology can bestow on all nations. If we
are made wiser by a constant appreciation of thecomplexities of what we are
attempting, the faster we shall move towards a solution of thereally imperative
problems that confront us everywhere.
