: The global population is projected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, requiring significant increases in food, water, and resources. While population growth is slowing due to declining fertility rates and increased longevity, this will lead to an aging population, particularly in developed countries. Meanwhile, resource consumption and environmental degradation continue to escalate, necessitating innovations in agriculture, urban planning, and longevity research to meet future demands sustainably. The challenge is balancing these demographic shifts with environmental sustainability and economic stability. 35mm lens on a Hasselblad camera, --style raw --ar 1:1
