Email from the Future

By Michael Rogers

What if we could change how we've messed up the planet and the people who inhabit it?

Aldus is a retired robot repairman liv8ng in 2084, and is writing emails, and essays, to his grandson, Luca. He writes about the history, climate change, strikes, famines, and other things that have transpired on Earth in the previous 64 years.

The entries flip flop between talking about general history of the world, Aldus's day to day life, and family history.

People live in walkables, fully self contained communities. The Internet has become something more. So many things about life have changed.

While this is a great story, it does feel a bit long winded and boring at times. Having g said that, the ideas in the book are thought provoking and do provide a possible course of action for the future.
