The World I Want to Live In

By Mansour Belal

Ladies and gentlemen,

"The only way you can predict the future is to build it." ~ Alan Kay

I’d like to share my vision of the world I want to live in. A world of hope, compassion, sustainability, and equality. A world where every individual is seen and heard, where the environment is protected and more forests and trees are present, and where we utilise our technological advancement to further better our world.

Equality is at the core of my vision. To live in a world where every person, regardless of their sex, race, religion, or socio-economic background, has equal opportunities and rights. In a world where diversity is celebrated, and discrimination is a relic of the past. A world where we work together to bridge the gaps that divide us and ensure that everyone can reach their full potential. 

Environmental stewardship is not just a responsibility but a way of life in the world I envision. We understand that our actions have consequences, and we take steps to protect the natural world. It's a world where we reforest our lands, clean our oceans, and strive to reverse the damage we've done. We live in harmony with nature, recognizing that our well-being is intertwined with the health of the planet.

Sustainability is another pillar of the world I desire. We have only one planet, and it's crucial that we take better care of it. I dream of a world where renewable energy sources power our homes and industries, where waste is minimized, and where conservation is a way of life. In this world, we make choices that benefit not just ourselves but also the generations to come. 

Lastly, the world I want to live in values determination and ambition to create societal development via our advanced technological abilities. It's a world where nations come together to address global challenges like climate change, poverty, pandemics, and overpopulation. We understand that we are all interconnected, and our destinies are intertwined. By working together, we can overcome any obstacle that stands in our way.

In conclusion, the world I want to live in is not a distant dream but a vision that we can make a reality. It starts with each one of us, making conscious choices every day that align with these values of sustainability, equality, and unity. Together, we can build a world that is not just better for us but for all generations to come. Let us take action today to create the world of our dreams.

Thank you.
