text
· let progress serve peopleZnanost je v zadnjih stoletjih korenito spremenila človeško življenje. Odkritja v medicini so podaljšala življenjsko dobo, tehnologija pa je svet zbližala. A napredek prinaša tudi nove dileme — od podnebnih sprememb do vprašanj o zasebnosti. Pomembno je, da znanost spremlja tudi etična presoja. Le tako bo razvoj služil ljudem in ne obratno. Radovednost in kritično mišljenje ostajata gonilo napredka.
show English
Science has radically changed human life over the last few centuries. Discoveries in medicine have extended the lifespan, and technology has brought the world closer. But progress also brings new dilemmas — from climate change to questions of privacy. It's important that science is accompanied by ethical judgement. Only then will development serve people and not the other way around. Curiosity and critical thinking remain the engine of progress.
