Vision:2050




FU ... TU ... RE

For the past two months, we have been researching current problems to get a peek into the future of our environment in 2050. We have researched ozone depletion, the melting of antarctica's ice sheets due to global warming, and People are still concerned with how they present themselves, both in physical space and in cyberspace. The fraction of our income that we spend on personal presentation has been increasing steadily throughout the century. As it becomes easier to satisfy our material needs, we seem to focus more on what we are in relation to others - there is great demand for what the economists call "positional goods".electric cars. The first issue and the cause of some major promblems in the future, the depletion of the ozone layer, threatens the inhabitants of Earth due to the advent of harmful ultraviolet radiation. The second issue, global warming and the plight of Antaractica, involves the melting of polar ice caps threatening our coastal regions in the future. The third issue, electric cars, may or may not be the solution to major environmental problems 50 years in the future. We hope that by exploring our website, you will be enlightened about these three issues concerning the future of our planet in the year 2050.
