So in the next century, I predict that we will have probably already screwed ourselves over, but some sources say that the human race has about 9000 years left before it really does screw itself over.

We will probably have more polluted areas, smog would cover everything, and we would be expanding and advancing technology, while there are those who are trying to combat the environmental destruction. it'll just be a more advanced time of warfare and chaos. However, I could be wrong. The advances in technology are becoming more and more aware of environmental impacts, so we may have a greener planet, like it used to be before homo sapiens poisoned it.

Perhaps our future will be similar to how South Park depicts it; we'll all become united as one race and speak some strange clicky language and eventually have so few jobs available we'd need to invade the past. However, I just think we shouldn't think about the future too much, and enjoy the time we have left here before our country is destroyed.

2112

By now, I might guess there will have been a third World War. This war probably was either over natural resources, or crazy terrorists and tyrrants of multiple countries trying to take over the war. There was probably some nuclear destruction. It is hard to say how the world will turn out because it could either go the way you want, or go the way that it is now. WALL-E is definitely a good portrayl of the future if we continue down the same road. All natural life will be gone because we have been destroying and using up all our natural resources without replenishing or conserving them. We have been producing so much nonbiodegradable and nonrecyclable waste that it could take up most of the space on the planet. We have been creating technology that replaces our need for movement and thinking; it could be as extreme as beds that hover around so that we don't have to walk. Already nearly a third of America's population is overweight, and the numbers are not decreasing. On the other hand, there have been plenty of efforts to prevent these disasters. Environmental groups have reforested many areas of the world and have pushed for new energy sources which have been at least created. Some schools have made changes on lunch menus for healthier options for kids. TV shows even emphasize the importance of staying healthier by eating good, fresh foods and making time to exercise on a regular basis.

Hopefully, by 2112, the world will have taken steps forward and not back. Perhaps the world will be more tolerant of other races and religions; gay marriage might be legalized in the US; we drive electric cars; we eat locally; we can teleport. Maybe not the last one, but we are the ones who can determine the outcome of the future. So who knows what will happen? We do. We will be the change.

Flying Cars and Cancer

There are flying cars, a new Confederacy (SOUTH WILL RISE AGIN), drugs, cancer, crazy mind reading televisions that allow you to participate in the shows virtually, alternate realities that have evolved from video games, and no interpersonal interactions. The nuclear family has degraded into four people who now longer know each other, and knowledge is something gained from taking a pill. It's like real-life Limitless except that you don't die and there are no side effects. It's possible to live until you're 150 due to growing artificial organs instead of depending on donors, and true love no longer exists. The Notebook is simply an ancient history from a time long ago and people view the early 2000's as the "Good Ole Times."

2112

I guess this post is assuming that we all wake up on December 22, 2012, and the world has not turned into an inhabitable land. So if we go with that then the human race will be the same, just new toys. Our faults as humans are not going to go away and wars will still happen. However I do think that we will do some things right and somewhere along the way, some inquisitive mind came up with a way to use water as a replacement for gas. However it will have been too late for the animals as we have already wiped the majority of them out with our old habits. But we will be working to get them back. Also I think that at that point the world has gone through atleast one nuclear war and nations have needed to completely rebuild. The United states would have to start from new and replace all the destruction that was brought upon us. Whether invoked or not.

The Inevitable Slippery Slope

The future faces an apocalypse, a nuclear fallout. Almost all forms of life have ceased to exist. This tragic chain of events started back in 2015. George Bush grew increasingly bitter and resentful towards the American public after the re-election of Obama.

He persuaded Texas, along with the ten other Southern states, to secede from the nation and reform the Confederacy, thus starting the second Civil War. This new American war resulted in concentrated nuclear strikes along the eastern coast.

Meanwhile, Kim Jong-Un, though lacking the experience of Kim Jong-Il, surpassed his father by scoring a 12-in-one, on his first attempt at golf too, spreading a wave of panic throughout the American golfing community.

Newt Gingrich, taking advantage of the new fear and chaos, wins the election of 2016. In order to fight Bush's new Confederacy, Gingrich proceeds with his moon base and installs there a weapon of mass destruction, attracting the attention of an alien race.

But in a surprise twist, George Bush had been a ghost all along.

From the mind of M. Night Shyamalan...

But on a more serious note, I have absolutely no idea what the future is going to be like.

2112

If I somehow froze myself for 100 years, I would hope to wake up to a world that is a lot like Star Trek or Star Wars. Why you might ask, well my answer is quite simple; besides all of the fighting those worlds are completely amazing, if you can find someone who doesn't want to be able to teleport, shoot lasers, and fly at insane speeds in space then you have found a crazy person because that stuff is awesome. In 2112 humans should have found out if there is life on other planets and hopefully has destroyed them all due to the intolerable nature of humanity, which in the end would be a good course of action most likely. Most of all I hope that in 2112 that school no longer exists, because they have found a way to upload everything people need automatically; with that being said, people with higher intelligence do go to college and go through a better form of school so that society can advance.

De-evolution

The future is not at all what we imagine it is like. instead of evolving, like many people think, we actually devolved into a lesser species of homo sapiens. all of the video games, and electronics that have made the minds of all the human on earth dulled. luckily the moon colony, created by Newt Gingrich of course, is still as smart as ever. they are the sole survivors of our race that we once knew today. back on earth though the homo sapien dullards have not only become slow, but fat also. all of the diseases in the world have been cured so no one ever dies from old age or disease, the one drawback to this is that the elders of the world are now so large they must be rolled everywhere.

it is a confusing time and place, there is no apparent leader except for the computer that has input on the going ons of the world, the people are to lazy to do it themselves. i would not like to live here, and thus would wish to remain inside of my own time frame.
