Most of the problems we have today are the result of our massive success, which in turn is the result of science and technology. We "made it". One the one hand, this is great news! We already have all the technology we need to provide for everyone while we stabilize the Earth's climate and start colonizing the galaxy. On the other hand, this means that our problems are now psychological or spiritual rather than physical. Those issues are less amenable to scientific/technological solutions. (At least so far.)
