I've gotta disagree with all the repliers who think there won't be any humans around in another 1,000 years, our prospects as a species are actually pretty good. (See my answer in the link below.)
What will be on peoples' minds 1,000 years from now will depend on a lot of things, like what the culture will be like, whether we're still biological entities, and where in the rise-and-fall cycle of civilizations we're at.
We will hopefully be smarter, more technologically savvy, and lead higher-quality lives. In the next 1,000 years there will be horrible calamities, great upheavals, changes in everything we're familiar with now, but there will also be great masterpieces of art, music & literature not yet imagined, new forms of entertainment & leisure, and I think we'll live in a much more connected world. The people of 1,000 years from now will no doubt have their own pressing concerns and troubles, but I'm pretty sure they'll live in a greater world than that we live in now.

I think the general attitude will be for the most part the same. Humans have natural instincts that although we can try to control, still exist despite our timeline. History has gone in somewhat of a pattern with government shifts and leader and all that. Everything will become more advanced and the world may become more interdependent on all the powerful nations, but the basic formula will remain the same

Well, considering the general attitude of the average human being towards the environment today, I highly doubt there will even be any civilization in a 1000 years...

I doubt that humans as we currently exist will exist 1000 years from now. We are on the steps of an explosion in diverse evolution to fill productivity niches with different subspecies of humanity.
There will even be subspecies of humans that will not even look like humans. Perhaps even a form of "human" that can exist in the vacuum of outer space.

There will be no humans left, on earth, or anywhere else. Perhaps some hybrids, do you think? That is, if anyone out there in the many universes cares enough to come and try to help us escape our own destruction at all. What a mess we have made.

I don't think most of us will be around for that. I mean humans. Should the earth exist at all as we humans squander away all the earth's essential needs for life, it would take those who are the most humble to recreate the earth for the peace that is to follow the end of life as we currently know it.

1000 years ago, we were in the dark ages. 1500 years before that, Aristotle formalized logic; we were at an intellectual high.
Whether 1000 years from now we're living in militant-Islam's ideal world of 700AD or my ideal world of constant steady progress will undoubtedly influence attitudes.

1000 years? You´re an optimist... by that time the human race will no longer exist...

The same; hello: we have not changed that much since we became thinking humans.

The same ones we have now. We never learn from the past.
