Spoiler alert!
At times, movies capture phenomena more accurately and pointedly than documentaries. The future of humanity is no exception. This is a book for teenagers curious about what the future of the world will be!

 

The book, How Many Earths Do We Need to Live Like We Do Today? explores solutions for our future through familiar movies like “Mad Max,” “Minority Report,” and “Interstellar.” Let’s build the brainpower to think about the current state of humanity and the progress of technological advancements through 10 topics and 10 movies!
This book intriguingly describes modern society through abundant sources.

 

“The fact that artificial intelligence reflects human bias could be an opportunity – an opportunity to realize that bias and fix it.” - from “Is AI as fair as we think?,” AI – Minority Report

 

The book discusses topics you might have wondered about while watching movies, such as resource depletion, energy transition, AI, inequality, and social robots!
Let’s look for solutions for humanity’s coexistence with Earth, and practice them together!

 

The future might be closer than we think it is.
Just like the author’s note, “You must look deeper into today’s world to learn the one of tomorrow,” why not deepen your understanding of the world we live in and envision the future with this book!

 

Dreaming of a future better than that in movies!
