Future Megatropolis

Wie wird die Welt von morgen aussehen? Wie werden die Menschen leben? Welche Technologien werden entwickelt werden? Diese Folge der Dokumentarserie erläutert, wie sich das Leben in den Metropolen der Zukunft abspielen könnte.

In the future, will the Earth become one giant city? By the year 2050, it's projected that 75% of the population will be living in urban areas. And that number will go up further. But these future megacities will be radically different. They will generate their own power locally, without burning fossil fuels. Sky Farms will feed the urban population. And building surfaces will become digital, becoming a new form of interactive media. Roads and structures will be paved with miniature networked sensors, creating a city alive with computer intelligence. New construction techniques will allow instant cities to spring up where none existed before. We'll even develop entire cities that can float on the seas. But perhaps the biggest megacities will be the ones inside our computers, as more people commute to work in the Virtual World

Ebben az epizódban végigsétálunk a jövő ultrabiztonságos utcáin, ahol a lépéseink energiát fejlesztenek és az égi gazdaságok milliókat látnak el táplálékkal.

Percorra as ruas ultra-seguras do futuro, as calçadas que geram energia com os passos dos pedestres e as fazendas aéreas que alimentam milhões.
