Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Pop Media is already putting out there the latest about Nostradamus and 2023. Other talk about the stories they believe will dominate the next year cycle. In fact, there are so many urgent and big stories, narratives, which is difficult to know which ones are the most important. Reading this post we are reminded of some stories which are not maybe creating big headlines but that are already important on their own. Japan has changed its economic policies. India is growing and changing, there is a debate growing about psychedelic drugs. Of course the big debate about environment, climate change but also about how to repair the world both environment and our own civilisation, etc. What we are living now is something which happens only from time to time, a time of deep and rapid changes and a clash of narratives.
