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.

Viver apenas com orgulho
I woke up feeling that today's work was going to be spectacular. Fortunately, now everyone works because they like it and not because they have to. I don't even want to imagine what it was like in 2025 when everyone had to work in order to eat, have fun or simply live. I give thanks to those who have managed to make everyone choose what they like to be, what they like to do, and they don't even need to be paid for it. Today everything is paid for by the system, what we want we have, we don't have any difficulties and with this there is no crime, there is happiness and as we manage to be what we like, humanity grows more and more, because everything we do is perfect, it comes from the heart, from commitment and from pride. We have become creative beings and human creation has no limits. Today I'm going to improve life in the world, because nothing is so good that it can't be improved. Today I'm going to be myself, because I'm allowed to be, because I wanted to be. Living in 2040 has been the best experience ever.

2040s
By 2040, I envision a world where the fight against climate change has been successful. Fossil fuels have been replaced by clean energy, with smart grids and advanced batteries providing the energy supply. Transport is electric and autonomous, cities are dominated by green roofs and self-sustaining buildings. Agriculture is sustainable, with vertical farms and precision technologies reducing environmental pressures. Healthcare is preventive and personalised, with artificial intelligence helping to detect diseases early. Work and education are digitised, with access to knowledge and opportunities for all. Automation does not take away work, but creates more creative, human-centred occupations. We live in a cleaner, fairer and more liveable world where technology and nature work in harmony.

Пътуване към бъдещето
If we imagine 2040, I would choose to focus on the problem of environmental change and sustainable development. In 2040, I would like to see a world in which humans have managed to overcome the ecological crisis and create a sustainable, harmonious future for the planet and all its inhabitants.
