Worse for most, good for few

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

As world hasn't gotten into an agreement about changes regarding the climate change the world has gotten much warmer. Population has either started shrinking in areas that are no longer easily habitable or started moving towards better areas which are now getting crowded.
This of course affects health and wellbeing of the population.
Technology/science rushes forwards with the possibility to live off planet sooner rather than later it seems that the option is only for the most wealthy. It is true that technological breakthroughs could also make lives easier and better but at what cost? There are always those who'd profit which in turn makes benefiting from said progress expensive for everyone. Working definitely might change with automatic/remote controlled robots or such. But still the lower classes would'nt have that luxory.

Notes about the quiestionaire. The given/estimated 5 minutes is nowhere near enough time to collect thoughts/visions about possible future. Also there was no option to decline after clicking the link in email as there usually is.

Airport of future
In 2040 there will be airports with train like qualities to them. Where there will be no need to queue for hours in security lines or arrive set times before flights. This will be done through automated scanners that detect instantly whether the correct protocol has been followed

Manas laimīgās vecumdienas.
The world is at peace. All bloody conflicts are over. People care about preserving the planet's ecosystem. We are producing less and less useless products. We are learning how to use resources. Wisely and usefully. We sort our waste carefully and recycle most of it. We use mostly energy resources. We use sustainable methods_ hydro, solar, wind. We also prioritise our own health while fighting for a healthy environment. I spend a lot of time by the sea in the summer, going for long walks and skiing in the winter through the snow-covered forest. My grandchildren are grown up and do not require much care. So I feel content to enjoy a happy old age. I devote a lot of time to my hobbies - gardening and travelling. The flowers in my garden are blooming and the tomatoes are coming up. I travel not too far, but slowly, enjoying the beautiful landscapes of European countries. The most important thing is to take care of your health and the health of your loved ones.The authorities have realised this and health care is becoming more and more accessible and not fantastically expensive.

Amélioration des qualités de vie
Quality of life has improved. Noise has disappeared from built-up areas thanks to electric vehicles, with much less pollution and more fluidity. People are more courteous and less touchy thanks to these improvements. Safety has improved, as penalties are more repressive. All breaches of the rules of etiquette and good citizenship are corrected in re-education centers.

alles wird einfacher
I can use my mobile device to communicate, pay, identify myself, get things done using AI and get my life organized. I only have to concentrate on life itself - work, leisure, family, friends, pleasure, etc. Languages are no longer an obstacle. Languages are no longer an obstacle. Data protection has become superfluous, as a lot of data is simply known and available in such quantities that it no longer requires individual protection. The device also fends off attacks and intrusions. Every person also has freely available assets.
