Quote by Paul Hawken
People are naming it the Third Wave, the Information Age, etc. but I would say those are basically technological descriptions, and this next shift is not about technology - although obviously it will be influenced and in some cases expressed by technologies.
Summary
This quote suggests that labeling the current era as the Third Wave or the Information Age merely focuses on the technological advancements that define it. However, the speaker believes that the forthcoming shift goes beyond technology, although it will undoubtedly be impacted and perhaps reflected in technological developments. The quote implies that this shift involves deeper social, cultural, or conceptual changes that extend beyond the realm of technology.
