In defense of the future

Celebrating WIRED's 30th anniversary.

View in browser  |  Your newsletter preferences WIRED has been your guide to the future for 30 years now, and while the future today looks much different than the future the founders of the magazine may have envisioned in 1993, it's more important now than ever to remind us all that while there's a lot to worry about, there's still room for optimism. The problems humanity faces are real, but so are the thinkers, activists, and builders working together to solve them.   So to celebrate WIRED's 30th anniversary, we'll showcase the people, platforms, and technologies that are working to pave the way to a better future for all of us. Hopefully, we can give you hope for the future, and even inspire you to action as well. — Alan Henry, Special Projects Editor Find me on Twitter.
