Hey one question, is our society in the future or in the past?


Question:
What I mean is that, our society is more like the past, then the future. Because we are still depended on oil, we still have traffic problems, air pollution, well' you get the point. To me, the future is like, no one care's if your colored, and the cars run on electricity or solar power, We have high tech cities that are safe and clean and no air pollution, and the we go in to space to explore the Solar System. So to me, thats the futre.

Answer:
What you are describing is the far far future. A future like that is far far off from our time. We are in the present not the past. You can only relate to us as the past if we were in your future, but we are not so we are not living in the past.

The things you talk about are in the works. There people out there working on the things you talk about. Things just don't happen over night. Again just because we are not in your forcasted future doesn't mean we are living in the past.
I think that our society is in the past, for we aren't as modern and we wont e for a while. Think about it if the goverment updated everything and exposed us to everything our society would be in a wreck for we have people who aren't accepting and dont embrase the future and advancement in technology!
I think its a little of both actually. Think of the health industry for instance. How much has that come in leaps and bounds over the yrs? We've gone from ordering someone to drink lots of salt water to cure dehydration (silly silly ppl back then) to being on our way to prevent certain cancers.
As for cars, well we're slowly moving toward electric cars, even more so now that everyone is so focused on green house gases. However, it'll be a few yrs yet that that will really take effect i think.

Other stuff, like our gov (aus) not planning our water resources properly and now we're in trouble and in the middle of the worst drought we've ever had, well we haven't moved forward at all there have we?
