The energy transition is largely complete. The social controversy surrounding it has been settled because people are convinced that it makes sense. Solutions have also been found for the problems of animal husbandry that are accepted by consumers. The global advance of autocrats has been halted and the oil and gas lobby, which has caused so much suffering, has been disempowered. Climate change is still there, but it is limited. Cities have adapted so that heavy rainfall and droughts can be mitigated. The economy is growing and has finally turned away from outdated structures and technologies, AI is in use almost everywhere and serves people, but is not a threat to them. People are once again more committed to helping others and not just themselves, and emergency services no longer have to fear attacks.
