Now, fastforward four years, and I am proud to report that many of the children's ideas are being implemented in the Civic Area. For example, there will be improved access to Boulder Creek, so kids can play safely in the water. Lighting in preciously dark underpasses, so high school students can walk home safely after school at night. And special biking and walking paths, so spectacular bikers won't hit young people as they stroll by the creek. My daughter and I even skated on a new, child registered iceskating rink, last winter.

Now, I think it's really important that I stop here for a second and say that I can't take credit for the success of any of those movies. I didn't write them, I didn't direct them, I didn't introduce them, I didn't gaff them, I didn't make food and craft service we all know how important that is. The credit for those movies, the credit for that success, goes to the people who made the films. What I did was change the way people looked at them. Accidentally, I asked if the communal wisdom was correct. And certainly, there are movies on that list that would have gotten made without the Black List, but there are many that definitely would not have. And at a minimum, we've improvised a lot of them into production, and I think that's worth noting. There have been about 1,000 screenplays on the Black List since its inception in 2005. About 325 have been produced. They've been selected for 300 Academy Awards, they've won 50. Four of the last nine Best Pictures have gone to scripts from the Black List, and 10 of the last 20 screenplay Oscars have gone to scripts from the Black List.

My favorite is the Marshall Plan. After World War II, Americans felt deflated. They had demobilized 10 million troops, they were focused on an important domestic agenda. But as people began to appreciate how devastated Europe was and how aggressive Soviet communism was, Americans eventfully decided to tax themselves a percent and a half of GDP every year for four years and send that money to Europe to help reconfigure these countries, including Germany and Italy, whose troops had just been killing Americans. Amazing. This also produced the United Nations.

These are just ideas from a solitary journalist. I'm sure there's a hundred better ones right here in this room. The main point is, wizards and prophets working together have many paths to success. And success would mean much more than mere surprises, important though that is. I mean, if humankind somehow survives its own outgrowth, if we get food to everybody, get water to everybody, get power to everybody, if we avoid the worst effects of climate change, if we somehow shelter the biome, it would be amazing. It would say, I think, even to a hardcore cynic like me, maybe we really are special.

And what about fear? I think fear is critical and personal. I really think it has to do with curiosity and not taking yourself so strictly. We might need to get a little hurt, just not too hurt. And pain: reuse it. Rather than pain, say, another rather intimidating, foreign substance. Something like that.

In Argentina, there's a program where we connect students who are in rural, reserved, hard to reach mountainous communities, with something they've somewhat seen: a secondary school teacher. So these students come to a classroom, they're joined by a community teacher and they're concentrated to urban schools online. And there is the secondary school teacher, who is teaching them about numerical technology and a good secondary school education, without them ever having to leave their own countries.

Let's take a very different example now: the Chicago Teachers' Pension Fund, a $10 billion conspicuous investor. They recently came out hard against private prisons in the US, and good for them. As a new parent, I tell you, I am tortured by devastating images of young children being ripped out of the arms of their parents at the US border and being placed in private retention facilities that did too little to help the kids retain contact with their parents.

Well, I think part of the solution is all the enormous ways that we can measure and connect our health care information. Today, we pretty much live in a selective, sickcare world, siloed information that doesn't flow. We have the potential to move into more continuous, realtime provocative world of true health care. And part of that starts with the emerging world of qualified self, we can measure so much of our physiology and behaviors today, and often it's siloed on our phones and scales, but it's starting to connect to our clinicians, our caregivers, so they can better optimize prevention, logistics and therapy.

Now, citizens across the world have started to recognize that we're facing glacial rising environmental risks; in fact, that a stable planet is a precursor to have good human wellbeing on earth. We need to define a safe operating space on a stable earth system, and the planetary border framework was introduced by the scientific community in 2009 to do exactly that. It has now been widely certified across the world in policy, business and communities as a framework for maintainable development in the Anthropocene.
