It’s connected to almost everything in our lives. We use it to work, play, read, do research. It is so accessible that there’s even a little box in our pocket that gives us unlimited access to it. The internet is now used by over 50% of the planet, that’s about 4 billion people with access to nearly 2 billion websites! Now with speech recognition and fibre optic cables, the internet is becoming faster, and easier to use.

The Russians were the first into space, the Americans the first to the Moon. Since then there have been probes sent to Mars, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, and even to the Sun. But what is the next step?Well, scientists from over twenty countries are preparing to actually colonise other planets. Perhaps your grandchildren will one day have holiday homes on the Red Planet!

Technology in the home has advanced greatly over the last thirty years. Now it is possible to actually talk to your house! Personal assistants like Siri or Alexa are now able to communicate with your home’s lights, heating, doors and thousands of other appliances!So when you come home loaded with shopping bags, simply tell the door to open, command the lights to switch on, and order your coffee machine to make a relaxing cappuccino.

The average life expectancy has increased suddenly over the last 50 years, and this is party thanks to more accessible healthcare.

Thomas Jefferson once said “Agriculture is our wisest pursuit, because it will lead to real wealth, good morals and happiness”, and it is true that many scientists have made it their priority to combat hunger. In Western countries, we are able to feed the entire population thanks to mechanisation and genetic research. Compare that to only 300 years ago, when entire villages in Europe were dying of hunger.

Now philanthropists are exporting these techniques and technologies to poorer countries. In fact, world hunger has dropped from 15% in 2000 to 10% in 2015.

The last wonder of the modern world is peace. There were fewer wars in the 20th century than any other century in recorded history. The number of nuclear weapons worldwide has dropped from 65,000 in 1985, to 10,000 in 2014. It is true that that the world is becoming a more peaceful place. Some people don’t realise that only 100 years ago, war was a part of life. Nowadays the majority of Earth’s population will never have to touch a weapon.
