I've come to the conclusion that we must completely stamp out all the selfishness we have ingrained in us from birth before we start, or else the project is doomed to fail, although 'energy too cheap to meter' would likely solve a good chunk of the potential problems. As things stand now though, I can't see this happening on a global level without some massive catalyst. Wether that be an 'unknown energy' or a global cataclysm, it's long overdue, though certainly I would prefer the former. In the mean time to start the groundswell, we can try our best to catalyse ourselves and those around us by staying focused on creating a new reality.

As far as visuals go, if I had my way, my personal new world would look something like this.
