What will the world be like in the future?

Technology did NOT cause human nature. Theft is the easiest way to gain what you don't have. This is why the legal system was developed. I do see less and less privacy in the future. In the name of safety and justice, of coarse. Look at all the cameras all over town and starting to show up even in our homes. Security cams. Web cams. You never know who or when someone is watching you. Walking will always be a good way to get short distances. Good for your health too. Problem is people can be lazy. Transportation will, on the whole keep getting faster, and hopefully safer. Playing with genes (biology) may become a problem if we keep splicing DNA before we see what the long term consequences are. Will these spliced genes cause other mutations where we didn't expect them? Will big business keep trying to use us as guinnie pigs in the name of cheaper products. After all, if it's not proven dangerous it must be OK. Just look at commercials for meds that have as a side effect thoughts of suicide, increased occurance of death,or some other hopefully less serious problem. If history can be any indication of what is about to come- it's going to get a lot worse and then better no matter what minor differences happen in technology. But slowly things will improve overall.

Here are my views as to what the future will be like. I will try and quantify some of them with rough estimates at to when they will happen, but they are just that- estimates. Anyway, here goes: * Computers will continue to become more advanced, appear in more devices, and play an ever-greater role in our lives. The internet will remain as essential as ever, and more and more things will be done online. * Some people have speculated that computers will one day become intelligent like us. I think this is likely, although nobody knows when. That said, computers already have rudimentary abilities to understand questions and provide intelligent-sounding responses. Computers of the next few decades will likely be able to talk to us and act as virtual friends and companions. * Medical technology will get more advanced as new technologies are developed and used in healthcare. Young people today can expect to live quite a long time- with current technology, someone of your age could expect to reach about 2070 or so- but then think about what we'll be able to do in 2070. * Money will remain with us, although economics will continue to grow and develop. Right now, we're seeing Asia start to become a very powerful economic region, which is likely to play a major role over the next few years.

I think there are two basic options; either we knock ourselves back into the stone-age with a mixture of wars, energy crises and climate change; or we advance into a future that is as unimaginable to us as our present day would have been to someone 500 years ago.

In the future, the world will seem normal to us since it is progressing fast, but fast enough for us to keep along with it. New York will be completely underwater since water levels are rising everywhere, as a result they will leave that area, as for Lindley, im sorry, i dont know where that is. Computers will be really advanced, and there is a strong chance of robots being very smart. There are a lot of bad points despite this. In 2050 researchers say that the whole Earths population will need two planets worth of resources. Low lying areas and islands will disappear completely. Polar bears and more than 90 percent of other creatures of the planet(Most of them not discovered yet) will not survive due to the changing temperature. The atmosphere could cause problems. There are some good points, though. Technology will be realy advanced. I doubt theft will increase due to this, since there will probably not be money then. The world will probably have reached the epitome of evolution so life will have slowed down. It is possible that catastrophic events could happen sooner than we expect. Nuclear weaponry and other things will be so good that World Wars could wipe out countries literally. I dont mean to be cheesy, but weve got to start saving water and all that. Global Warming will be really intense. In the future, scientists have proved that humans will have jutting foreheads. No joke. Time Travel and Inter-Stellar Space time travel will probably be possible. The things that we see in movies might be possible. Earth will be completely different. Temp will become wierd, for ex. Hot areas hotter, cold areas colder, etc. Who knows, we might discover life on another planet.We might move to another planet after ruining this one. Video games might literally be go into them stuff. The world will be unrecognizable by us. Clothes wil definetly be different , and nudity might even be possible. Ugggh.There might be 3 sexes or only one. Women might be stronger than men and men wimpy.:(. For all we know, men could be the ones wearing skirts and crying while women wrestle. Thats all i can come up with. My first answer.

We have no idea... so hard to tell.

Hmmm, you are thinking way ahead... First, let's see if we survive December 21, 2012. The so-called (long awaited/predicted) apocalypse.
