Career choice in these terrifying times (PLEASE HELP)

7 Upvotes

Hi, I'm a 17y high school student from Poland and am currently doing IB (might be irrelevant, it's just an educational program in English). I love humanities, and I was very interested in going into history, lit, political science or law, but considering the climate crisis, I think these choices might not be the safest options. What field would you suggest to go into that isn't IT or medicine, and also in which country would you recommend to go to uni (in the EU)?
