I imagine that in 2065 the world will indeed be a much different place, and a place where everything we do is in a sustainable manner, and any resources we use will be renewable. I also would like to think that by then we will have a colony on mars that is also self sustaining. This would be an amazing thing to be accomplished by people, and a way to really prove how we have mastered being sustainable. I think all cities will be modeled after the new city of Melbourne where everything will be self sufficient sustainable, and green. I think this will be a amazing thing to see, everyone will need to work together to achieve this goal, making the world a better place. Rileytc197 (talk) 12:27, 3 August 2015 (EDT)
- So you would follow the Melbourne example? What specifics do you like about the Melbourne model that you would like to see replicated elsewhere? Martin A. Walker (talk) 13:01, 3 August 2015 (EDT)
