Abstract

Let’s be glad then that there’s no happy ending as it’s better when such a fascinating story never ends. Some say that the prospect of no cataclysm happening is in itself very optimistic. At the time of turmoil we are undergoing, a skeptic would say that the fact that this whole changing world has not come tumbling down on our heads is already a great reason to be happy. It could have and it didn’t! Let’s be pleased but let’s worry a bit from time to time knowing that, as the saying goes, all is not yet lost that is delayed… This has to be prevented and, all the more so, we can’t put off solving the most essential problems facing humanity.
