What is shaping how you think about the planet’s future?

What is shaping how you think about the planet’s future?

 

 

To launch our new programme Forecast, we reached out to 50 people across the world to ask them that question: “what is shaping how you think about the planet’s future?”

We asked Antarctic scientists, energy experts, indigenous environmentalists, CEOs, activists, artists and many others. The full collection includes some wonderful perspectives from some truly brilliant people.

Many were hopeful, some were not. Some drew inspiration from ancient and indigenous wisdom, while others from the futures of their children. Data and models were just as prominent as the role of creativity and the interconnectedness of life on this planet.

Every one of them made us stop and think.

You can browse the collection of responses below. We hope you enjoy reading them too.
