Objectives in life

Human beings occupy a unique position in the known world. Like every other living species, we depend on finite resources—land, water, air, energy and biodiversity. Yet unlike any other known species, humans possess an extraordinary ability to imagine possibilities far beyond their immediate surroundings. Through language, abstract thought and collective knowledge, we continuously reshape the world around us. This ability has produced remarkable achievements. We have developed agriculture, built cities, extended life expectancy, connected continents through communication networks and begun exploring space.
