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.

Mildere tijden
I walk down a sunny street in Utrecht, where children sit on benches with their noses deep in books. Not because they have to, but because stories inspire them. In 2030, people realized that technology is great, but it shouldn't kill imagination. So there were reading squares everywhere, interactive libraries and writers telling schools how stories could change the world. Meanwhile, the walls of new homes were literally growing. We discovered how to make building materials from CO₂ from the air, combined with bio-concrete that regenerates itself. This is how we solve climate problems while building sustainable homes. In healthcare, something extraordinary has happened. Robots and AI are taking over tasks, but not at the expense of humanity. Care workers actually have more time for patients. Everyone is seen, heard and helped. And perhaps best of all: people have become milder. We have learned that working together is more rewarding than winning. A smile on the street is normal again, and granting is more important than owning. This is Europe, 2050. And it feels good.

Utopia kommt ein Stück näher
I would like to see the conflict between economy and ecology overcome by 2040. Companies will no longer have to strive for extreme profit, but will be rewarded for sustainable production. In addition, products produced in this way are subsidized by the state so that almost everyone can buy them. The neo-liberal economic ideas have finally been consigned to the dustbin and no one would think of following the capitalist ideas any more. In addition, the social systems have been harmonized so that the major gaps have been closed and no one has to work beyond the age of 65. The professional civil service has been abolished and only a few essential professions (police, fire department, judiciary) still have civil servants in the necessary positions. Private health insurance has been abolished and transferred to the statutory system so that all employees pay equally into the social security system and stability is guaranteed. Parliaments have shrunk to reasonable sizes (Bundestag 301 members, the rest staggered according to population up to a maximum of 49) and the associated bureaucracy has also shrunk. The money could be used for sensible projects to reduce legal regulations, so that digitalization could also be decisively advanced.

wish mail it is important to me to live in peace and to secure the earth for all descendants for a peaceful and livable environment.in addition, the preservation of animal species to promote real selection.furthermore, the school must be designed in such a way that everyone can benefit from it.everyone needs the most important basics and not things that nobody needs.the same applies to the health system, where a reform is absolutely necessary so that everyone can find a family doctor and does not fall out.taxes should be used sensibly and those who squander taxes should also pay for them.the idea that money is spent on pointless things and nobody is responsible is completely different for the normal employee.mistakes can happen,but you should also stand by them and not squander other people's money without punishment.it is also very important that all those who have a leading position are also trained for it.at the moment ministers are being put from one position to another in politics who actually have no idea about it.people should live well and happily.the gap between rich and poor must change and not become even wider.the pension should also be enough for pensioners to live on.everyone should pay taxes without restriction up to a certain amount.everyone should be treated equally and that welds the people together because it conveys real justice.

Ma vision de 2040
At the dawn of 2040, so much has changed! Selective sorting has taken root, there's no more food wastage thanks to the cost circuit, we consume more local produce, and producers are able to make a living from their activities. We don't judge different people, we try to understand them, we're more tolerant and benevolent towards others, even if there are still a few recalcitrants.
