'A Better Future' Competition Winners

About the Authors:

A Better Future is created by team of 10 students (volunteers) at the age of 14-16 from Nesho Bonchev High School, Bulgaria. They were provoked in www.answerdarden.ch survey to extract the key areas for a better future - education &#38; communication, food, health, environment and etc. Later on, they divided themselves into pairs and the tools were chosen based on their previous experience. We highly recommend using the following

It makes the readers familiar with the challenges of the future and shows our mission and vision how to make our future life easier, funnier and healthier. The book is standing out with more than 10 features, tools and applications. Less input, more output! :) Today we are sure everyone will wonder whether the following statements are facts or fictions for tomorrow. For example, 1. Most people use only 10% of their brains. 2. We will be using fly-amphibia transport 3 in 1 (air-land-water transport) 3. We will be able to teleport ourselves wherever we want. Is it True or False? :) Team of teens (14-16 years) Nesho Bonchev High School

Food will be weird (more creative)

By now, 3D printing has been sugar-based, but technology is emerging that reliably prints savoury and fresh ingredients. Natural Machines have developed one such kitchen appliance that can be loaded with multiple ingredient capsules to create and cook all manner of weird and wonderful foods. These include: crackers shaped like coral, hexagonal crisps, heart-shaped pizzas and hollow croutons that dissolve in sauce.

With the promise of cutting waste by repurposing &#8216;junk&#8217; food and offcuts for food capsules. Natural Machines have the potential to drastically reduce packaging and transport costs. Not yet sold on the idea? Imagine wowing your nearest and dearest by serving up the ultimate romantic meal finished off with a personalised chocolate torte, where an invisible series of grooves in the chocolate surface plays their favourite song when placed in a special &#8216;record player&#8217;. Isn't it delicious???

When people think about space colonization, they often think about sci-fi movies. However, this is far from the truth. Colonizing space can be a great option for our future.

First of all, Earth is already overpopulated, and the population keeps on rising. By 2050 it's going to get even worse, because of our planet's depleting resources. By exploring other planets, we will be given the opportunity to build new cities where people can live. Even more, because of the overpopulation Earth has a serious pollution problem. By spreading the population to new planets, we will be able to reduce pollution and help our planet.

All this info sounds amazing but there are some disadvantages too. For example, exploring and colonizing space can be very dangerous and expensive. There is also the fact that humanity is not even close to developing this kind of technology. Overall, colonizing space can be very helpful and useful for humanity and in the present it may seem like a distant dream but in 50 years' time, it will be a new opportunity for a better future.&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;

These means of transport are designed to make travelling more enjoyable, easier and faster.

Different technologies and mechanisms are used in transport, in which new techniques and functions are constantly discovered and developed. So in the future it is expected to have new means of transport. For example, flying cars, starships, hyperloops, hover cars, airbus "PopUp", Renault amphibia and etc.

The way in the future

Look at two of these modes of transport! Hyperloop is a sealed tube or system of tubes through which a pod may travel free of air resistance or friction conveying people or objects at high speed while being very efficient, thereby drastically reducing travel times over medium-range distances. A hover car is a personal vehicle that flies at a constant altitude of up to few meters above the ground and used for private transportation in the same way a modern automobile is employed.

Hologram communication

<a href="https://learningapps.org/display?v=poenvt3ek19">Holograms Game</a>

Holograms are an easier way to communicate with people, because even if we are very far away, we will feel that we are close to each other. By incorporating a hologram feature on our phones, we can communicate via a hologram even on planes and when there is no internet connection.

To start with, there are many ways to communicate with people who are far from us. For example, Facebook, Skype, Zoom and many other social media. But wouldn&#8217;t it be much easier if we could see them as if they were with us.

All in all, communication will be developed in the future and new improvements will be made. Communication via holograms is easier and convenient&#160;and at the same time cool and appealing. Wouldn&#8217;t you feel great if a hologram comes out of your phone or your watch even on a plane?
