Future’ reminds us that what we do now does have an impact on future generations (both of  humans and of flora and fauna). It also can prompt us to envisage – to dream – what a better future could look like. For some organisations imagining that better future is part of their remit. The United Nations has its 17 sustainability goals (https://sdgs.un.org/goals), and the Earth Overshoot Day organisation has its ‘Power of Possibility’ vision  (https://www.overshootday.org/)
