A imaginary cityscape of the Floating City with the proposed Hover Car in use 100 years later.

A proposed design of how the concept hover car can look like if we really are able to live in the Floating City 100 years from now so that the city can produce its own magnetic field and hover cars can be used since it down't rely on Earth's magnetic field anymore.

A simple diagram explaining why two strong and permanent magnets cannot achieve levitation in the real world.

I watched the classic Back to the Future II as my precedent. The use of hover board makes me curious if that would actually work and started my whole project with that direction.

With the support of Hendo Technology, the hover board is not a imagination anymore. When we talk about magnetic levitation, the easiest way is to use two permanent and strong magnets to repel each other to achieve a simple object that floats.It all sounds very simple and feasible until Earnshaw's Theorem comes in. It states that when two strong permanent magnets are repelling each other, one of the magnet will then flip and attracts to the other one, no matter the size of the magnets, given an amount of time. Hendo's technology then decided to use the simple theory of Lenz's Law to create its own magnetic field and uses the Magnetic Field Architecture (MFA) to concentrate and generating stronger magnetic field to sustain human weights. The only problem is that it can only levitate over copper and aluminium surfaces since the Earth's magnetic field itself is still too weak. With the latest proposal of Floating City, I believe we are able to install our own magnetic field in the sky by then. And with this technology, I believe that hovering transportation is not just a dream anymore.

Given the knowledge that the Earth might be covered in water in 100 years and because of urbanization due to population growth, I would imagine people of the future will start living in the sky.

Scenario:
With the rise of the amount of Methane, Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide in the air, the future of the Earth in 100 years doesn't seem very optimistic. World leaders are finding a solution to generate more energy rather than fuel and coal, but bearing in mind that mother nature is always ahead of us. Here's the question: Will the Earth still it be the same in 100 years?
By 2030, our population will hit 8 billion people, reservoir starts to evaporate and food rationing will begin due to not enough clean water.
By 2070, sea level will increase significantly due to the meltdown of Greenland, causing the remapping of Earth's surfaces. Cities start to drown.
By 2080, virus starts to breakthrough and causing death to human without proper meal and clean water. Population slides down to 4.8 billion people.
By 2115, which is the agenda's target, the civil society depletes and human will go back to the dark ages, fighting for food, for energy, for clean water, for what is left.
