All is good. What should we do with the mindset of some who consider educating oneself ends with schooling?

I agree. It is imperative to cater for enhancing and maintaining curiousity. Lifelong curiousity amongst all people
. Invest in research and development to harness emerging technologies like AI, blockchain
Well said

I have a question for you regarding your points on, renewable energy and restraining our use of energy from fosil fuels. Consider these facts (from google though😆):

Thanks for your question and consideration.. But firstly, you have to ask yourself, since we have a low level of c02 footprint, we don't have to take action to stay there or not exceed it to avoid harm? nop.. so that thing should be one of our goals so that we can have a stable and sustainable country because if you only weaken in one part, even that part with a big problem will not be successful as we need.

Also bro,, investing in clean energy infrastructure not only helps combat air pollution but also creates jobs, reduces carbon emissions, enhances energy security, and fosters technological innovation. Additionally, emphasize the long-term economic and environmental benefits of transitioning to renewable energy sources.
