Flickers of the Future
A movement which works with young creatives to help us imagine a more sustainable future.
The way that we depict the future plays a critical part in how it unfolds. A more sustainable future would be kinder to the planet but would also allow us to live in a way which would make us happier.
The environmental movement needs more positive content, too often we talk about the damages caused by our high carbon lifestyle with doom and gloom prophesies of post-apocalyptic outcomes. We would all be more motivated to change our behaviour in the here and now if we understood how much better it would be for all of us to live in a more sustainable future.
