In 1996 The Long Now Foundation was created to help expand people’s mindsets from short term thinking to long term planning for the future. One of the organisation’s projects, ‘The Clock of The Long Now’, is a clock based on a 10,000 year cycle! Now that’s planning for the future. The prototype of the clock is presently on display at The Science Museum (London).
