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.

Harmony with Nature: A Sustainable 2040
In 2040, I imagine a world where sustainability has become the foundation of all industries and daily life. The future I envision is one where cities are built with nature, rather than against it. Buildings are powered by renewable energy sources, and green spaces are abundant, not just for recreation but also as integral parts of urban planning. Transportation is fully electric, with zero-emission vehicles dominating the roads, and public transit systems are efficient, affordable, and accessible for everyone. Waste is minimal, thanks to a circular economy where everything is recycled or repurposed. People live in harmony with the environment, making choices that prioritize the planet's well-being. In this future, environmental preservation isn't just a trend, but a way of life that ensures a healthier planet for generations to come.

In 2040 we could work fewer hours and enjoy more goods by harnessing technology. In particular, we could work from home and use artificial intelligence. With 2-3 hours of effort we would be able to direct the AI tools which would then produce 24 hours a day. This will give us time to enjoy the other aspects of our lives, while society will not stop being productive.

In the year 2040 , I would like to have a cleaner environment. Let's learn to protect it more so we don't kill it. Let's learn to respect each other and appreciate the people and relatives who are next to us. To learn to be tolerant, honest and kind people. This will be very valuable
