Concerns
Hey friends!
Thinking about potential futures can be so exciting! But there are also some possible dangers hiding around the corner. For example, what do you think about climate change and will our whole life be available online in a few years from now?
Let’s have a look at some concerns for our futures.
Imagining how possible futures could look like is really important. Sometimes people think about the preferable futures or the things they would like to see in the futures. After they do that, they can try to work towards these futures. However, sometimes it is also important to think about preventable futures or futures you don’t want to see. After you consider those preventable futures you can try to make sure they won’t happen. That’s where the concerns come in!
Sadly, there are a lot of concerns we can consider when thinking about possible futures. Concerns are things we worry about. So what could you worry about when it comes to the futures? Think about climate change: will people and animals still be able to live here in 50 years or will almost all land be flooded? Or what if your children and grandchildren don’t get to eat fresh fruits and vegetables anymore because all fertile ground is exhausted? It’s also scary to know how much information about everyone is online nowadays. What if, in the futures, people won’t have privacy anymore and big companies or governments will know everything about you, including your secrets? These things can be really scary to think about.
But remember, my friends, you can do more than just worry about it! It is important to think about these concerns in the futures, because then you can take steps to prevent them from happening! Let’s first take a look at what concerns actually there are for our futures.
