Grounded in the field of design fiction, this work combines insights from the climate impact research community, technology meta trends, and plant science, all of which work as a basis for the exploration of relationships between humans, plants, and technology. Based on scenarios from the climate impact research community, we prototyped four plausible worlds and visualized exemplary scenes in the daily life of the plausible citizens. Sketching and low-fidelity prototyping supported the process of gaining knowledge and iterating on storytelling.}, subject = {Design fiction}, language = {en} }
