DIET

In 2070,

food

will be tailored to your genome.

As the food and the nutrition science developed in the past 50 years, people now are more aware of their individual diet, taste palate, nutrition need, and biological preference.

As the food and the nutrition science developed in the past 50 years, people now are more aware of their individual diet, taste palate, nutrition need, and biological preference.

The technology of DNA testing was first developed in the 1980s, and later commercialized in 2020. The use of DNA testing in diet design became popular in a decade after the technology was widely used in the general public.

The benefit of DNA testing in the food industry is manifold; it can easily detect all kinds of food allergies; it ensures the best nutrition plan and consumption limit based on one’s biological data.

Today, in 2070, many restaurants adopted this DNA technology!

Walking into a diner at the corner of the street nearby your home, you would no longer be puzzled by the endless menu. The novel way of ordering your lunch could be as simple as touching a button - inputting your fingerprint - to let your cloud-based DNA data help you figure out what you should have for lunch!

For those who enjoy the process of selecting their food, it may be very disappointing.

However,

it is proved to be healthy, scientific, and absolute.

THE PRICE

OF

ORGANIC FOOD

Organic food is a luxury

As the food and the nutrition science developed in the past 50 years, people now are more aware of their individual diet, taste palate, nutrition need, and biological preference.

The average consumption of calorie is rising

Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security

A report from the Global Citizen Times estimates 80% of the world population depend their everyday’s lives on the manufactured food, which includes GMO produce, lab-made meat substitutes, and other food substitutes. To go organic, a metropolitan dweller would need to spend over $70,000 a year, which is above the total median household income of New York City. Food options are deeply connected with social stratification.

Ten years ago, a new occupation emerged to cope with this blight. The Urban Gardener, a self-employed job that grows fresh organic produce in the city. In the past 50 years, the Green Roof movement has successfully converted 80% of the vacant roof, the underutilized parks and gardens of New York City into gardening space. As the urban garden space expands, there is a shortage of professional urban gardeners.

Nowadays,

everyone who is a registered resident of NYC is legitimate to apply for

the urban gardener certificate.

Upon approval, an urban gardener will be assigned to a portion of the urban garden, which could be a rooftop garden, a garden facade of an office building, a community garden inside a public park. Because the younger generation grew up in the lab food culture, aside from the regular gardening job, an urban gardener occasionally needs to organize workshops, and tours for educational purposes. Most of the Urban Gardeners are retired seniors.

FOOD DELIVERY

Getting your delivery could never be as easy as it is now in 2070.

20 years ago, the whole New York City achieved zero human-based delivery service. The nostalgic street scene in the CBD during the lunch time that had food delivery guys driving and biking all around is no longer existing. Now, all items, no matter food, mail, or parcels, are delivered through the integrated robotic-based system.

The food delivery market has the potential for robust growth.

Rely more on delivery

Automated delivery

Flexibility on food

In the air, we have the tireless delivery drones taking mails, small parcels and foods in different directions to different parts of the city. A big development in the past two decades in drone-delivery technology is the speed and the stability. With the latest drone-delivery model, we can send a full cup of coffee with zero spill.

On the ground, the self-driving delivery robot will carry large and heavy parcels to every single household in the city. The robot is operating in the dedicated lane, mostly a shared lane with the bikers. Most of the buildings in the city have a designated area for delivery drop off.

For all constructions since 2045, the integrated delivery distribution system was embedded in new buildings.

The system is connected to the closest delivery center, it receives the delivery directly distributed from the center carried by the delivery robot through the underground tunnels. Once the delivery arrives at the destination building, it will be automatically lifted to the receiver’s office/apartment.
