The Bioelectromagnetic Age

In 2040, many of the most innovative breakthroughs being developed to contribute to sustainability, productivity and quality of life involve the synergistic combination of knowledge related to biology, science and technology. One of the biggest breakthroughs that has been achieved is Bioelectromagnetic Design – the customised design of the electromagnetic characteristics of environments and technologies to enhance wellbeing and biological functioning.

Interest in Bioelectromagnetic Design had initially arisen in popularity, and necessity, as a result of many in the insurance industry refusing to cover health issues related to electromagnetic pollution, the growing incidences of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity in many of the world’s populations, and a number of enlightened health agencies advocating the adoption of stronger protective guidelines.

It received a further boost when entrepreneurs recognised that if they took into account the suggestions of ‘early warning’ scientists when designing technologies and products, the risks they faced were reduced and their opportunities for disruptive innovation increased. The growing interest and efficacy of electromedicine further increased the appeal of such tactics, and by 2035 such approaches had become mainstream with the creation of more bioelectromagnetically healthy environments and technologies becoming the choice of the masses.

The knowledge that we can work in closer harmony with nature through having a better understanding of the biological effects of the electromagnetic spectrum, and can use that to our advantage and the advantage of the planet itself in its extended recovery period, is been a real blessing.

Discrimination is a thing of the past. Everyone is able to work in a way that suits them. There are protections for people with disabilities regardless of their relationship status. LGBTQIA+ couples have all the same rights as same sex couples. The cost of living has decreased and there is a universal living wage for everyone. Education and inclusion are valued highly. It is easier to travel through Europe and experience the diverse cultures and cuisine

The school will probably deteriorate, already now you have seen how both the working conditions for the educators have become tougher and there are more demands and tasks that are not really included in the teacher's degree. Nevertheless, I believe that the development of technology will also create opportunities for teachers to plan lessons faster and be relieved of the workload, e.g. with the help of AI. Unfortunately, I believe that the school environment for children and young people will deteriorate because the relationship between school and home is already strained. Although it is clear in the curricula that a relationship should exist with cooperation, it is unfortunately usually the homes that disappoint the child. There will probably be so many more children who become outgoing when you choose to put them in front of technical artifacts instead of working to strengthen the children's self-esteem and self-confidence that they CAN. After all, the school will form the future members of society and I think we will continue to disappoint society.

After Trump plunges the USA into a deep financial and economic crisis by mid-2026, including a stock market collapse due to completely deregulated markets, a huge new anti-national peace movement is emerging worldwide. Similar to the Arab Spring, one autocrat after another falls, Putin, Erdogan, Orban... Some countries are introducing an unconditional basic income and can hardly save themselves from young and old skilled workers who, with financial security for their families behind them, are throwing themselves into their work full of commitment. No one has to be afraid of progress anymore and is therefore willing to use new technologies. Even if many lead to dead ends, some are successful. And so here we are in 2040 with medical nanobots that repair the body on their own and genetically optimized plants that provide optimal nutrition for humans and animals without pesticides or herbicides. Other plants are "programmed" to filter large quantities of CO2 and pollutants from the air and convert them into harmless or helpful substances or store them safely. Humanity is healthy and full, there is no longer any need for limits and everyone can exploit their full potential.

I imagine a future with machines capable of treating us quickly without the need for a doctor. Greater security, with no more delinquency. A world without war, without famine, so that everyone can live in a decent environment. That we're in touch with nature, with more greenery, less concrete, and animals living in a better world.
