Our world is made up of so much technology, all around us, that we are barely aware of it. Technology accommodates our existence, as nature did for our prehistoric ancestors and still does for (most) other organisms. In this series of 3, I examine the tension between technology and nature as the host of life on our planet, from a psychological perspective. New technology does not always provide the solution; for example, the widespread ability to live a contemporary life with rapid mobility over long distances now makes a climate and environmental transition extremely necessary. Many major problems with technology are not technological by nature but natural: more is less, less is more, less prosperity, more well-being! Some major transitions are extremely necessary. It is precisely the right to decent work that could force a turnaround here.
