 * How you think life will have changed by the year 2050?

I think life would be a much easier. The machines will be doing most of dangerous, and hard work. Our life would be full of pleasures e.g. the free genetically engineered, but healthy food for everyone.

The work wouldn’t be the style of life because of if someone wont have to work, he mustn’t. The houses would be all a skyscrapers made only of plastic. Every new person in the society will have become a free flat, and a chance of education if he want of course. Doctors would have a cue for every sickness. People in the future wouldn’t dye younger than 130. Education will be automated by computers programs which are not able to miss the note. The most popular way of travelling will be a flying cars powered by solar energy. Everything will by environmentally friendly, that means if you crashed your car, the machines would do a new one from the wrack of yours without loosing the materials. Machines will be doing a new machines if there were needed. People will only be needed to do the project of things that they want, the rest will be automatically made by robots. Natural environment will be rebuilt by genetic engineers from the underground rests of the old world e.g. dinosaurs will be at Zoo’s. I think the life in the future will be safe, easy, and boring because of work is it what powers us. People will be weaker than now. I don’t want to life in 2050 even if it’s possible. This is a snapshot of life in 2050, according to a group of Australian scientists and engineers who were asked to explore a simple question: are there any engineering, scientific or environmental barriers to reaching 30/50, that is, a population of 30 million in Australia by 2050? The conclusion, by members of the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering undertaking the research, was a resounding "no". "At the moment, there are lots of issues surrounding climate change, water and energy supplies, and so people have concerns that the future is not looking rosy," said the academy's technical director, Dr Vaughan Beck. "But the academy believes that with proper planning, investment and good engineering, the issues can be addressed. That's not to say it's an easy path, but it's not an insurmountable one." The academy's report for the philanthropic Scanlan Foundation, to be launched tomorrow, paints a picture of a future Australia in which life expectancy has reached 92.2 for men, and 95 for women. With greater life expectancy comes greater demand for public housing and health facilities and increased use of pharmaceuticals. Australians are also likely to be more than twice as wealthy, pushing up spending in areas such as tourism, private education and cars. The 30/50 study says climate change is expected to lead to increased heat stress on humans, agriculture and ecosystems, and place additional strain on crops. There will be more migrants from countries adversely affected by climate change, many in South-East Asia and the Pacific Basin. "The effects of the enhanced greenhouse effect will almost certainly be very apparent in 2050," the report says. The nation's energy mix will change, with a reduction in hydro power but increases in natural gas, renewable resources and nuclear power. Electricity prices will rise as resources become harder to recover and environmental sustainability costs are factored in, while urban water supplies will be boosted by new sources such as surface and ground water, recycling and seawater desalination. It calls for a greater role for the Council of Australian Governments, saying important decisions about infrastructure investment should be made on a national basis, rather than through three tiers of government. The paper also seeks a more long-term approach to policy. "Planning will have to be cast beyond the lifetimes of current governments and divorced from their traditional over-reactive approach," it says ||
