00:00My predictions for 2025 are completely depending on the decisions and the behaviours we have today.
00:09If we phase out the fossil fuels, we'll have a better environment.
00:14If we have more kindness, wisdom, compassion, the world will be a better place.
00:22If we have less poverty, there will be less wars.
00:26So it's up to us to act.
00:28For the year 2025, I fear that we will experience a new wave of catastrophes.
00:39The second is of course a fight for the truth.
00:45The greatest good in the next few years will be the truth and it will be fought for by many sides.
00:53And that happens on the Internet, that happens on the street, that happens in politics.
00:57And the third, which I also see for the next year,
01:03are very, very many unlikely heroines and hero stories.
01:09We will be so often surprised by amazing, beautiful changes in the world.
01:15Because apparently, despite all the chaos and despite all the frustration,
01:20people everywhere will fall in love with the world again and again.
01:25For 2025, I would like to predict a much better form of digital health than the one we currently know.
01:30That is, we are very present on social networks, but no longer really present in reality.
01:36I would like us to really focus on our friends,
01:39to predict a year where we focus on our real social links and not on the unreal social links.
01:45That is, the fact of being able to connect together,
01:48also try to show kindness to each other,
01:51try to nuance each other's words in reality,
01:54discuss and talk around a glass,
01:56rather than confront each other behind your little screen with your well-defined opinion.
02:00Here are my three predictions in the form of a wish for this year.
02:05The first, that the wars end.
02:09The war in Ukraine, the war in Gaza.
02:12Too many victims, too much pain, too much violence.
02:19In second place, I would like to talk about the writers of us,
02:25as the engines of culture.
02:28Above all, that we all manage, with our editorial offices,
02:35with our writers, that we manage to promote concord.
02:42And in third place, I would like to talk about us, about women.
02:49That we stop being victims of violence in our homes.
02:54So hopefully we can also achieve a 2025 in equality and with respect.
03:11We have to give more awareness to the Danish Faroe Islands
03:14to end that horrific slaughter of dolphins and pilot whales there.
03:18And also we're going to put pressure on Japan.
03:21We have to end Japanese whaling.
03:23If we end Japanese whaling, we automatically end Norwegian whaling.
03:26And I think that in 2025, people are going to become much more aware
03:31of just how fragile our environment is,
03:34the fact that biodiversity and interdependence is being severely diminished,
03:39especially in our ocean, and that climate change is a major contributing factor.
03:43So people are going to become much, much more involved during this next year.
03:48This planet is suffering tremendously.
03:51And we suffer from all of it going in the wrong direction.
03:57I mean, in terms of the climate, it's going badly in the same direction,
04:03in the same old direction, which is the wrong direction.
04:07And in terms of politics, old ideas come up that already didn't work when they were applied before.
04:14Nationalism is, I thought, was on the way out, but it's coming back big way.
04:20So I mean, now, if every nation is now going to say, me first, it's not going to go anywhere.
04:26So the idea of Europe is a much more beautiful idea.
