What will the future world look like? 👀

What 2030 might be like! From the technologies that might be invented, to the political structure of things, and how human life as a whole will grow! Allow us to show you what 2030 might be like!

To start, let's look at the world as it is right now in 2024. In short, it's not exactly the best place for all sorts of reasons. There's, of course, the pandemic that absolutely ravaged the world and is still doing that for the record, the tensions between nations, between the government and its people, and of course, a very strong desire for equality among all races and orientations makes turning on the news a bit...tenuous as you all know that something bad is going to be talked about. Including many things that we didn't even mention.

And there's no doubt that there's going to be many of these issues still when we get to 2030, so is there really something to look forward to in all of that? Well, yes, even if it doesn't seem like it at first. For example, one thing that more than likely will have happened by 2030 is the first manned mission to Mars. We say this because as of right now both NASA and SpaceX are working on making this happen right now. In fact, they're already doing massive tests to see just how viable some of their crafts are in terms of their ability to get to Mars. SpaceX especially has gone and made great strides in the Mars mission because they were the ones who have tried to make it happen for almost two decades now.

SpaceX was built by Elon Musk to go and invigorate the Space Race once again and they've succeeded in doing that. According to Elon Musk, the goal is to have a craft ready to send to Mars in the next few years. Colonizing Mars in full won't happen until much later, but as for 2030, by that time (barring certain difficulties and accidents on missions of course), we could find ourselves celebrating not just getting to Mars, but going there multiple times. Because the goal is not a one-off trip. They want to test themselves getting there, living there for a little while, coming back, and then going back to the red planet within a fair span of time to start the colonizing process. Musk himself has noted many times on Twitter that he wants a fully colonized home on Mars by 2050, and if SpaceX really does get us to Mars by 2030, that dream will very much be intact.

But that's a little far from home, wouldn't you say? So what about all the things here on Earth that will likely be happening by 2030? Well, ironically, a big thing that hopefully will have happened by 2030 is a huge overhauling of power supplies across the planet from fossil fuels to Green Energy. And if you're thinking, "Isn't that something Elon Musk is doing?" Yes, yes it is. Because if you look at our world right now in 2024, Elon Musk via his company Tesla, as well as other companies who are following suit, are working hard to not just make electric cars, but get them distributed all over the world. Tesla has been doing this since the early 2000s, but only in recent years have they seen not just a boom in success, but people being willing to try them out. Furthermore, Elon Musk is making "gigafactories" to go and make even more of the cars so that they can fit the demand that is growing.

"But what does this have to do with converting to Green Energy," you ask? Simple, it has EVERYTHING to do with it. Because one of the biggest polluters in the world today aren't the factories that make things or the homes we live in, it's the vehicles we drive! There are approximately 1.4 billion cars in the world right now. And while it's fair to say that not all of them are driven every single day, every time we drive them we pollute the area in massive quantities. Switching to electric cars eliminates that part of the fossil fuel problem. It'll take a while to convert everyone, but in 9 years time? That's a lot of potential electric cars out on the road. Furthermore, many nations of the world (including the United States now that President is leading the nation) are aiming to go and eliminate as many fossil fuels from their processes of life by 2030 and beyond. We won't be in a cleaner world, mind you, but every step in every single year that we live in matters. So by 2030 we might be able to severely curb or even severely drop the fossil fuel usage that we have. Which would be a big step indeed.

Another reason that Green Energy conversion is important is that another major element when it comes to 2030 is the cities that we live in. How so? Well, if you take a look around the world, especially in places like China, Hong Kong, the United Arab Emirates, and more, construction is going on at a massive rate. Mainly because many of these nations are looking to revolutionize their cities to be both "more modernized" as well as be "futurized" in their way. A great example of this can be very easily found in the UAE. Because the UAE has been overhauling Dubai for years in order to convert it from just a popular Middle East city and the home of certain religious attractions to being a place of pure tourism and changing the perception of the UAE as a whole. If you don't believe us, take a look at how Dubai looked even just a decade or so ago, and how it looks now. They're constantly and consistently going and building themselves new buildings to sell space in, new attractions for people going to see, and even building man-made islands in order to fit more of their attractions in there. China is doing this on a different scale as they're trying to modernize their cities so that they can fit their rapidly growing population. In recent years they even made a giant bridge to Hong Kong to help expedite the delivery of goods and to help ferry people across the body of water that separates them much faster.

As if all of that wasn't enough, the rapper known as Akon is taking the idea of a future city to new levels in Senegal. As he's gotten permission to go and build a multi-billion-dollar city within the nation that'll rival the size of its capital and yet be able to be run completely on cryptocurrency. It'll have places to live, plenty of places to work, and be able to accommodate all sorts of people to fit their needs. Should this work, more cities like it will be built throughout Africa. So just in terms of how cities look, 2030 could be very different in certain parts of the world.

But let's also look at a certain other thing we just mentioned, cryptocurrency. You see, right now, the "desire" to go and use cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Dogecoin and other entities like it is a bit mixed between those who are willing to risk it (and many have made millions off of that) and then those who feel that this digital currency is nothing but a con.

What do you think this looks like in 2030 and how will things look in nine years’ time? Which of these advancements or endeavors do you honestly feel could come true? Or are we overestimating what is about to happen? Let us know in the comments below.
