Investments iп Environment_
The future of humanity and the world is a matter of global significance. Every per- son, directly or indirectly, influences both history and the future.
Today, the question arises: how can we contribute to a better future for human- ity? What determines this future: politics, economics, culture or the social sphere? Or, perhaps, all of them are equally important?
Undoubtedly, every area of human activity is shaped by people and continues to evolve through their efforts, including the global economy.
The global economy is a mechanism created by humans, a system that oper- ates thanks to human labor. But how can we improve it? My answer is: through investments in environment.
Of course, it is important for economic development to invest in human resources, to create and integrate new technologies, and to improve logistical chains. It should be noted that all these aspects are human “inventions”: humans invented the economy, developed the concept of moving goods and services effi- ciently, and identified what must be created to optimize all processes. But there is one sphere that existed long before humans and continues to exist without their intervention. That is the natural environment. It is simple: if the environment is no longer suitable for sustaining living organisms, the extinction of the human species becomes a real possibility.
Since ancient times, humans have depended on nature. That connection still exists today. If humanity wants a better future not only for the global econ- omy but also for its own survival and the well-being of future generations, then it
must acknowledge a critical fact: we are now on the verge of exhausting the natural world around us. This applies to ecology, natural resources, outer space, wildlife, the Earth’s ozone layer, and many other components of the environment. But if the conditions necessary for human life disappear, there will be no economy, no politics, and nothing else.
Therefore, the question of priority does not even arise. The answer is obvi- ous. Humanity has already begun taking steps to change the current situation. This offers hope and faith for the future. People should rethink the basic principles of their lives: how they relate to nature, how they use water resources, land, soil, and minerals, and more. Solving such problems will, in turn, foster the development of technologies, human potential, and much more. This is a top priority for the future, not only of the global economy but of humanity as a whole.
