The World Needs Thinking people with intuition and common sense

What does it take to help mankind and individuals survive? It takes people who can think critically and usefully about any given situation no matter how scary or difficult to look at from the Macro to the micro, inside us or around us in any and all situations.

With enough people like this the world just might survive intact with it's civilizations relatively intact for thousands to millions of years on this planet and others to come.

Then the next step is "How does someone share their research so it does some good?"

This is a very useful question too.

The first thing likely is one has to not have a big ego about this.

Good ideas come from literally anywhere and at any time by someone having a unique perspective.

Then from that idea comes different variations on that theme of people trying that idea to see if it is useful in some way or other and in trying to apply those ideas to their own lives.

So, having a big ego in relation to your idea isn't useful unless you are trying to make money off it by patenting it or creating a business around it.

In my own case I have always been an idea man. I'm likely don't have a lot of ego around this because it has always just been a part of my identity as a person. My father and grandfather were idea people to and always coming up with new ways to do things and to think about things in life. My uncles were like this too as well as my aunts. So, it is a family trait to be creative and innovative always and I think this is how American pioneers survived mostly as they settled all of America from the 1600s to the present.

So, this infinite creativeness was allowed to express itself without limit as pioneers settled the American west from the original 13 colonies to California and Alaska and Hawaii and all around the world.

The most creative place I have seen is the west coast of the United States where that 'controlled chaos of creativity was set loose hundreds of years ago and never stopped.

Even in dealing with something as crazy as a 100 or 200 year flood it makes me think that this is why a big developed civilization didn't survive in California before the one now. Because any big civilizations got washed away every 100 to 200 years ongoing in the past.

However, because of advanced technology and things like Emergency services and the Weather Channel and other U.S. services we might have a chance of saving some or even all or most people in another calamity when it hits from megafloods caused by Atmospheric rivers sometime likely in the next 50 years or so.

Whereas when there wasn't this kind of technology not only everything was washed away but most people and animals were too.

Even now, everything will still be flooded or washed away in river and lake basins or flood plains but people might get to safety in another area or state.

So, possible places around California more immune from flooding should become repositories of water and food in case this  megaflood happens again. So, people will know where to go for water and food in case this happens again before they are rescued or helicoptered to safety the next time this happens.

Everything in the flood plains might be lost but people don't have to be lost too.
