It's all the fault of technology. Inventing more technology isn't going to solve anything. The benefits that we are getting are diminishing and the problems are getting worse.

I think we need to create new communities less dependent on technology, where we are more dependent on each other.

"The concept of progress acts as a protective mechanism to shield us from the terrors of the future." - Frank Herbert, Dune

His own works demonstrated how technology can lead to the enslavement of the people.
