• Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine learning: This technology will become more integrated into our daily lives empowering personal assistants automating complex tasks and enabling personalized experiences in entertainment, healthcare, education, and many other fields.

• Quantum Computing: This technology will come to our lives to help us in the fields like cryptography materials science, and drug discovery by solving problems that traditional computers can't solve.

Other technologies that will come into our lives are;

Will the world move toward peace and unity?

This is a very complex question to me the world move towards peace and unity or not? Well, this is a question that is influenced by social, political, economic factors, and historical factors. Based on my analysis this is what I can say.

The world can move towards peace when there is global interconnectedness in the world which allows people from different parts of the world to come together. Also when there is economic interdependence, cultural exchange, and grassroots movements.

Finally, the world can move towards peace when there is cooperation on global issues, youth leadership** and decentralization of power. As the world we are in shows cycles of conflict and cooperation, the future depends on collective choices among different countries. Whether the world moves towards peace and unity or not humanity will continue to share mutual relationships.

Environmental Impact

• Rising temperatures: Increased global temperature will intensify droughts wildfires and heatwaves.
• Extreme weather: Often severe storms, floods, and hurricanes will disrupt human communities and ecosystems.

Human Health and Well-being

• Spread of Diseases: Warmer temperatures can expand the range of Victor-borne diseases like dengue fever and malaria.
• Food and water security: Flooding, droughts, and shifting weather patterns will disrupt our agriculture, leading to a shortage of food and water scarcity.

Economic Consequences

• Cost of disasters: The damage from extreme weather events can strain economies most especially in vulnerable regions.
• Insurance and property losses: Rising sea levels and extreme weather can make some areas uninsurable.

Where do you see yourself in 2030?

In 2030 I see myself as a mother. I see myself as a married woman who is doing well both in her husband's house and in her place of work and I also see myself having two children in 2030. I see myself as a successful woman who has made it in life.
