Serving Lei Community College and puthern Alberta for over 30yearS; Suzuki's crystal ball By Alicia Filipowich

He's had a bullet fired through his window, his office broken into and his computer hacked into. He was almost forced off the road by a logging truck, all because of his beliefs. Last Wednesday, David Suzuki, dressed in a green suit, brown shirt and black shoes shared his thoughts and beliefs with a crowd of 1,300 at the University of Lethbridge. His talk on nature, its link with the econo­ my and how it will be affected in the millennium, was sold out a half hour before the show started, with over 200 people still wanting to to get in. Suzuki compared our approach to the year 2000 as "embarking on a suicidal road." In the driver's seat is the economy and we, the population, are headed for a brick wall in a car going 100 km/h, arguing about where we want to sit. The people who want to stop the car or veer its course are locked in the trunk. "If we hit the wall, we'll respond. But it's a hell of a lot harder to pick up the pieces after," said Suzuki, comparing the tragedy to that of Lady Diana's. In the past, people understood that we are deeply embedded in the natural world and used this to create our leg up on other species, technology. This growth of science, said Suzuki, "Has provided more insight which has changed the course of human history." Those born after 1950 have grown up in the largest period of growth and change. Any other way of life to the Baby Boomers and Gen Xer's, said Suzuki, is sim­ ply unacceptable. "Progress equals change and nobody wants to stop progress." With progress and change come the evils of technol­ ogy like DDT, designed to kill bugs. "We love technol­ ogy because we designed it to do things for us."
