The streets of Chicago during 2147
The year 2147 is a point in the future where there is practically no animal or plant life on Earth. The world also faces dwindling worldwide air quality. As a result, humans are forced to wear face masks to protect themselves from the polluted air that can cause pulmo-replasia.
The Shannon Family lived during this point in the future in the city of Chicago. The government had implemented a campaign, "A Family is Four", to control the increasing overpopulation. Despite the law, the Shannons decided to have a third child, Zoe, and when Population Control Officers searched their home and found her hiding in a wall vent, Jim attacked them and was subsequently given a prison sentence.
