People who predict the future and take a global perspective can dream big. Sometimes their ideas might seem crazy, but even the wildest science fiction ideas can come true. One hundred years ago, who would have thought we'd be flying to other countries regularly and carry a phone in our pockets?
Looking to the past, you might be struck by how much lovelier our lives have become; housework is becoming easier all the time, and work, travel and communication are getting faster. Our ambitions for science and technology are bolder too - curing diseases and flying out into space for example – so who knows what will be possible in the future? Nevertheless, how can we balance our limitless imaginations with the limits of our planet and its resources?
So, this is a call to action! We want ideas from the public, on how you see a future Pontypridd. We will bring all your ideas together, and share it with the community. Hopefully this will be the seed for plans to realise these futures, strategies for action! Who is ready for it? Share your ideas with us through our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram using #Pontypridd2120, use our website comments form, or write us a good old-fashioned letter!
