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.

As a woman

I would like not be a second class citizen as a woman. I would like people to take me seriously as a woman. I would like to have the same opportunities as men in my country. I would like to not be afraid of men when alone with them. I would like all women all over the world to have basic human rights and health care. I would like men to start speaking up about violence against women, I would like them to advocate for women, to correct fellow men on their bad behavior and teach respect to their sons. I would like all people on this earth equal regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation.

Větší rozdíl mezi ekonomickými třídami

I have 2 children and in 15 years they will be 18 and 21, basically they will be adults, but I reckon that if they don't study abroad they will live here. I hope that by then technology will have moved on again and everything will be even easier and more connected. That even if they live abroad, contact will be possible without any problem. I hope that many of the diseases that threaten us now will be completely eradicated thanks to vaccines on the decline, I expect cancer to become a common disease. I think there will be a greater disparity between the economic classes and we, as the upper middle class, will be worse off overall, but since we already own property and will eventually get more from family, I reckon we will actually be better off overall, but worse off on a day to day basis. The biggest difference will be in the top end, which will be even better off, and the bottom end, which unfortunately will be even worse off.

Vesmír je na dosah

The year is 2040. There are several billion people in the world, because a cure for longevity has been found. But you can travel to space, you can actually live there, and you can even choose a planet. Mars has people who like rocky "seas", Pluto has people who like fresh water and 100% oxygen. Scientists and doctors are going to Jupiter and trying to find a cure for cancer( it still hasn't been found yet, but it's well on its way). Well, those who like life on Earth stayed here. Cars are no longer just racing on the roads, but even in the sky, competing with planes and shuttles. Tourism is booming. Everybody wants to go to space.
