We need to fundamentally rethink why we teach science to our children. For too long, we have treated STEM education as a mere pipeline for corporate production and personal wealth accumulation. But as some visionary thinkers are starting to point out, the true goal of science should never be excessive consumption or just making money. It should be about creating the necessary conditions for everyone to live happily and sustainably. It is heartening to see initiatives, like local science film festivals, encouraging students to become creators rather than just passive consumers. By training teachers and students to document scientific truths through film, we empower the next generation to look beyond the paycheck. Let’s shift the focus from how much one can earn to how we can improve the collective quality of human life. #education #science #philosophy
