Scarcity of raw materials is a real and fast approaching problem. How do we keep the world and especially our economy on oil and technology without turning the raw materials for a new cell phone or a windmill? In his new book 'Radical Abundance' Nanotechnologist Eric Drexler foresees no deficits through nanotechnology, we can make all kinds of materials that we want. He calls it 'Atomically Precise Manufacturing', or APM. Drexler will explain how it works and the implications for society.
