Science is often misunderstood as a tool for industrial efficiency or wealth creation, but we need to rethink its core purpose. The true goal of science should be creating conditions for everyone to live happily, rather than fueling excessive production and consumption. We are pushing our children to view education merely as a ladder to high-paying jobs, but shouldn't they be taught to use knowledge for social good? The initiative to train students to document scientific truths through film, like those seen at the recent Thrissur festival, is brilliant. Documentaries like 'Pride of Kerala' show our potential. If we shift from a profit-driven mindset to a community-driven one, we can solve real-world problems. Science should be a tool for human happiness, not just a gear in the corporate machine. #science #education #philosophy
