Scenarios as an exploratory form emerged from collaboration between science and art—specifically between strategic research, filmmaking and storytelling. These scenarios are true to that approach, expressing a collection of related data through familiar, human-scale stories.

Those presented here are not meant to be forecasts as much as provocations that interweave the collective opinions and insights of the global participant group. They are possible futures as collectively voiced by contributors, and the narratives that follow connect the dots of data in narrative forms that can be more easily explored.
