A thought-provoking overview (naturally!), synthesising anticipated developments over a wide range of fields and outlining how these could interplay. I agree that climate change - how to mitigation, adaptation, and the resulting destruction and creation of value - is likely to dominate over this period.

While I do not like forecasts, this was an enjoyable read. Thanks Azeem. Based on your list and my writing (two books), I think we could have an amazing dialogue given the opportunity, you game?

I concur with your interesting summary except for one aspect involving social media. One, Facebook, has overplayed its hand in Australia badly (and elsewhere) and they will all be reined in and regulated in the next few years. Here's my take on Zuckerberg https://dianefrancis.substack.com/p/lets-unfriend-facebook

As a ranking member of the media, it's important to understand the hyperbole and propaganda disseminated by an ill-informed media. This is my analysis based on a splendid book by a credible scientist with data and charts to make the case that there is no climate emergency underway.
