2111 in U.S.A

Nash stated “we have no compass to guide us through what will certainly be rough ecological seas ahead. Lacking long –term vision, we are like skier whose focus is fifty feet down the hill”, which means we do really need to plan our action toward future of Earth. Remembering this comment in my head and imagining the United States 100 years from now, it seems little far away from realistic situation but this could be another possibility in the future.

In the year of 2111, I believe there won’t be any borders between countries like today, but more likely having three countries interconnecting with bridges. First country will be summed up with North America and South America. Second country will be summed up with Europe, Africa and Asia. Third country will be New Zealand and Australia. However these three countries will have ecological bridge that will help people to move point A to point B. The population density will be decreased compare to today’s population rate, due to restriction law to people. Because people in this time will have equal opportunity and property right, that they do not need much family members to survive, any health issue of not guaranteeing to live for long term nor to fight against to have a land. Also the way people live and their daily life have changed. Young people are getting education to live in better green life. For example, they would go to their own little land to learn how to cultivate the land and within final product, how to exchange their goods with their neighbors and other countries. Middle age people will be concentrate on making Ocean water to drinking water, rebuilding the land and mountain with tress so the new species and animals can live, developing technology in a way the world would have less carbon emission to go out to air, etcs. Old age people will actually enjoy their life by receiving goods from society, because what they have done to their next generation is enough.

Energy will be used from natural resources from Sun and wind power, and people will develop better ways of using energy in more environmental like, rather than burning the coal and de toxic the land and air. People eat or consume their food will be sharing their agriculture base and trade between their neighbors around the world. Little community will manage the fresh water and the use of water will be depending on their action toward the environment. For example, if they did harmful action toward to lard environment, their next month to use of water will be decrease, due to restriction law. The nature of transportation will be divide to three ways. First, within water power ships that will help people to move themselves and large products. Second, bicycle and wind/light energy transportation from community to another community. Third, people will be moving with their two legs or horses for daily. There will be limitation of using the airline and big ships because the bridge between three countries will help interconnect each other close. This sounds more likely the idealist view of U.S in 2111, but I think this could be another view on how our future could look a like if we work together.
