U.S. intelligence report warns of looming ‘catastrophic’ shocks worldwide due to tech, disease

(Worthy News) – A U.S. intelligence report is warning of a potentially grim set of scenarios in which factors like environmental issues and technology disruptions could have a significantly destabilizing effect on the global order in the near future.

The report, published in March by the National Intelligence Council, claims that “global challenges” such as disease, “environmental degradation,” and “novel technologies” that disrupt the economy, will all contribute to “wide- spread strains on states and societies as well as shocks that could be catastrophic.”

Economic factors such as “rising national debt, a more complex and fragmented trading environment, the global spread of trade in services, new employment disruptions, and the continued rise of powerful firms” are contributing to the changing global landscape, the report argues, as is “a growing gap between public demands and what governments can deliver.” [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
