By the year 2170, Earth is on the brink of collapse, facing numerous challenges such as deforestation, air pollution, famine, human overpopulation, and widespread flooding. The planet is struggling with severe environmental degradation and the depletion of resources, primarily due to the relentless exploitation by humanity, resulting in a nearly shattered ecosystem. The Earth is now fragmented into various nation-states and regions surrounded by ever-diminishing forests and national parks. Once a land of abundance, the 22nd century sees agriculture primarily dominated by protein farms. Coastal areas have shifted focus to mariculture, primarily harvesting phytoplankton and spirulina. Much of the planet's terrain has been transformed into bleak wastelands. A striking example is the Nevada Toxic Flats, and the once-majestic granite domes of Yosemite have been replaced by luxury condominiums, while the nearby Yosemite Falls have been reduced to a meager, polluted trickle.
