The Cosmopolitan #5: Bad News – Asking the Hard Questions of Our Time

The Edition #5/2025 of The Cosmopolitan carries the striking headline “Bad News” — and deliberately confronts the complex challenges of our world. This edition takes a critical look at global, social, and political issues, while also highlighting solutions, resilience, and hope.

Topics include neo-fascism and technological power, exhaustion and activism in the digital age, climate change and sustainable urban development, and global access to clean water and sanitation. Personal stories, interviews, and reports — from a tribute to Jane Goodall, to insights into robotics competitions, environmental protection, and school life — add depth and perspective throughout the issue.
This edition powerfully reflects how thoughtfully and responsibly BCS students engage with today’s world — and why their voices matter.
