Seven trends that can (will?) change our world…
Reflecting upon this…. The need to:
– bring a global perspective to local issues

– develop a long-term perspective
– make increasingly tough decisions
– think about the 3 pillars of sustainability economic, environmental and social issues

Alberta: Urban vs. Rural Populations
16.1% of Albertans live in
rural areas
83.6% of Albertans live in
urban areas

The Future: Some things we can be fairly certain of…
• Immigration will become the sole source of population growth
• Rural communities will struggle to attract immigrants- and for many population decline will be inevitable
• Climate change will have unanticipated effects at a global level – both in terms of food security, loss of biodiversity and political instability
![Page 49: Community Economic Development - CPAA · Community Economic Development: Building on Your Strengths for a Better Tomorrow (Part 1) (a rural and small town perspective) Wayne Caldwell,](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050109/5f473b4d9ff35e0057501cfc/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Some things we can be fairly certain of…
• For the foreseeable future global population growth will continue (currently increasing at more than 80 million people per year)
• Continental and global migrations are probable
• Global economic power will increasingly shift to emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil
• Economic stagnation (including no growth scenarios) driven by climate change, restructuring and related political instability will be an increasing concern
• We will increasingly reach for technological solutions, but our success with this is unknown

Our challenge: How do we respond to these issues?
![Page 51: Community Economic Development - CPAA · Community Economic Development: Building on Your Strengths for a Better Tomorrow (Part 1) (a rural and small town perspective) Wayne Caldwell,](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050109/5f473b4d9ff35e0057501cfc/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Ways not to respond!A true story from Utah.
A city councilman, Mark Easton, lives in this neighbourhood. He had a beautiful view of the East Mountains, until a new neighbour purchased the lot below his house and built.
Apparently, the new home was 18 inches higher than the by-laws would allow, so Mark, mad about his lost view, went to the city to make sure they enforced the proper height. Mark and his new neighbour had some great arguments. The new neighbour had to drop the roof line - no doubt at great expense.
Recently, Mark called the city and informed them that his new neighbour had installed some vents on the side of his home. Mark didn't like the look of these vents and asked the city to investigate. When they went to Mark's home to see the vent view, this is what they found...
