• Populations are growing, increasing the stress on water and food supplies. (See this International Atomic Energy Agency map of water stress)
• Developed societies are ageing, increasing social care costs.
• Energy is getting more expensive.
• Future supply of some critical materials is uncertain.
• People are beginning to realise that we have been treating the world like a giant toilet, but it doesn't flush! (Source: McDonough).

• ICT technologies are enabling new social 'crowd' platforms to perform typical industry functions. Examples include making, programming, fixing, fundraising, innovating, retail, knowledge sharing and learning.
