Will my child grow up with wonder and dreams?
While watching Blue Planet, I started to wonder: what will we know by the time I have children? Will my children be able to grow up fantasizing about the Amazons, Mars, and the deep blue sea—all of which were places relatively unknown to society while I was growing up and objects of imagination—and able to imagine a different life and society? I fear that the children of the next couple generations will increasingly lose fantasy and imagination as new technology and knowledge of our environment continues to de-exoticize the world we live in today.
