In this follow up to Part 1 of the article “How You Can Change the Future” I would like to provide a simple example to illustrate how applying the Socratic Method to reviewing an issue can help break it down to its essential components, isolate the potential problem areas and then help uncover the best options for dealing with it.
One of the examples described in part 1 of this article was of living near an industrial plant or on the site of an old industrial plant that may have been polluted but has been “cleaned up” and sold to home owners. Here are some questions one might ask;
- Do you accept that the site or nearby industrial plant is safe because the plant owner / property developer, State or local government declare it to be safe?
- If the community accepts these assurances should you question it?
- Do you take it upon yourself to check this fact regularly?
- How do you go about checking it?
