s s u E s TOMORROW; today will be yesterday A LOOK TOWARD 1998 AND WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR POLITICS, ECONOMICS AND THE ENVIRONMENT. What is in store for 1988? Where will we be in 10 years; what condition will our country be in? How will we deal with the changes that are destined to occur in the next decade? These and other questions were presented to three KSC professors: Dr. Marvin Glasser, chairman of the Physics and Physi- cal Science Department; Dr. Sam Reno, chairman of the Business De- partment; and Dr. Thomas Mag- stadt, chairman of the Political Sci- ence Department. These men were asked to give their views and speculate on the fu- ture in their respective fields of the world, country and economy. Glasser explains that beginning on a large scale, the earth and its at- mosphere will remain about the same due to the fact that 10 years is a split second in the life of the earth; however certain things will happen to influence long term changes. One factor Glasser spoke of was “global deterioration due to popula- tion growth.” This means that the growth of the number of peo- ple will ease due to the increase of pollution and the decrease of natural resources, thus leading to the necessity of finding al- ternative energy sources and of recycling existing resources. Glasser continued to explain that due to the expected in- crease in coal consumption, the amount of sulfur dioxide col- lects in the atmosphere and causes acid rain similar to that now occurring in some parts of the U.S., Canada and Europe. Car- bon dioxide is also slowly increasing the “greenhouse effect” of the atmosphere. This effect causes the earth’s atmosphere to hold in the heat rays from the sun, thus not allowing them to escape. This effect raises the overall temperature of the earth. While global environmental problems are on the increase, the earth’s resources are decreasing, Glasser said. Of particular concern to the future is the estimate that the civilizations of Urphe Earth and its atmosphere will remain JL about the same due to the fact that 10 years is a split second in the life of the Earth. ” —Glasser earth in the next decade will be in the middle of the 50-to-60- year time span that the oil supply is speculated to last. Accord- ing to Glasser, global production will peak before the year 2000, by then more than half of the world’s oil will have been con- sumed, This may mean an increase in technology for developing other sources of energy. Speculation still surrounds the use of nuclear power for an alternative power source. Glasser believes the Soviet Union and The greenhouse effect causes the earth’s atmo- sphere to hold in the heat rays from the sun. France will surpass the United States in the development of nuclear power because they are more committed to it as an en- ergy source. Space technology will also be on the rise becoming a multi- Thomas Magstadt: Political Science Department chair- man 2
