Thank you for highlighting the reasoning that has led to the world being so f&*ked up...
Better the older generations do leave their descendants alone than ever try to anticipate and frustrate them.
More to the point then is the idea of leaving the world a better place than you found it and making an effort to not limit the prospects of future generations; which is perhaps more what you are looking to. Future problems are not ours to worry about - it's not our problem; all we have to do then is not make the problems worse. The obvious example being the economy and financial crisis. If there was only a solution to hand that could help solve the financial crisis; empower people; and give future generations opportunity to have a more stable base for their economy..
