Abstract: To address global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and resource depletion, the planetary resilience calls for international cooperation and collective action. It calls for a shared commitment to upholding ethical principles and values that place a higher priority on the long-term well-being of humanity and the planet than on short-term gains.

This study looks into how social media is changing society and its effect on next generations. Given the speed at which technology is developing and the sheer number of media outlets available, it is imperative that we comprehend the ways in which social media might adopt ethical and holistic practices in order to influence young people's beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours.

Using content analysis method for data collection, the research tries to understand how much social media is bringing awareness for future generations and cooperating in planetary resilience by embracing holistic approaches and moral responsibility towards future generations. Key activities of social media as qualitative data are analyzed to reach the finding of the study. Keywords: Holistic Approaches, Future Generations, Moral Responsibility, Social Media
