| Disruptive progress in technology brought out strong mastering of manipulation of matter, which in turn induced the emergence of very efficient technologies. Computers can now be made from a handful of soil. Moreover, breaking down objects has been made very easy too, which led to the appearance of very efficient closed-loop industrial systems. | Disruptive progress in technology brought out strong mastering of manipulation of matter, which in turn induced the emergence of very efficient technologies.

| In terms of food, a wide range of artificial food is now available. Such techniques have been used to produce cost-effective healthy food, but also luxury extravagant & specialized items. For instance, more and more nano-breweries are sprouting, selling less than ten bottles a year from hyper-local geographical indications. | In terms of food, a wide range of artificial food is now available.
