The world isn't broken by accident. It's broken by design.
Every day, decisions are made in boardrooms and governments that trade the planet's future for quarterly gains. The destruction feels distant until it isn't - flooded streets, poisoned rivers, burning forests, and collapsing trust in leadership.
Leaders value next quarter over next generation. Systems reward extraction over creation. A culture that mistakes noise for knowledge.
I created Taking A Closer Look to cut through that noise - to expose how short-term greed destroys long-term value.
HERE, WE'LL LOOK DEEPER INTO THE SYSTEMS THAT SHAPE OUR WORLD:
BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP
How decisions made in the name of "profit" often erase the very future they claim to build.
AI & INNOVATION
The tools that could either accelerate collapse or help us design a sustainable new economy.
CLIMATE & ACCOUNTABILITY
The facts that can't be spun, and the people still brave enough to face them.
This publication isn't about doom - it's about understanding. Because once we see clearly, we can act with purpose.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I'm Paul Zurav — author of The Biggest Crime in History, founder of CTEK (Change Through Education and Knowledge), and an AI consultant helping leaders rebuild systems that serve both people and planet. Over three decades as CEO, COO, engineer, and systems designer, I've watched this movie before. I built AI-powered systems in the 1990s when "AI" wasn't a buzzword. I've seen how short-term thinking destroys companies from the inside. And I've learned that the pattern repeats, in technology, in business, in climate. If you're ready to go beyond headlines and soundbites…
If you believe accountability and progress still matter…
Then welcome - you're in the right place.
