Club of Rome: Limits to Growth: (Meadows & Forrester) (2)
“I would assume that my kind of input with the Forrester models might really come out with a reversal to what they’ve traditionally taken there. But even if they did, we’d still have to get to all the people of the world, China, and Russian, and so forth. I think they would be favorably impressed. I think my kind of data could be put on the television through our World Game and make it visible to human beings… then the rates at which you could make those buildings and they could be delivered by air, what they would weigh and how much material in the world it takes to produce them, and what kinds of standards of living you’d be able to get with them. Russia and China would probably not want to ban any kind of television program of that coming in over the satellites. I would be glad to have the MIT-Club of Rome group employ my data. In a sense I’m rather surprised they didn’t.”
