What do you picture our world will be like in 50 years?

Question

Thanks ever so much for all your answers :)

Answer 1

I would like to say everyone will be at peace and harmony but I cannot see it, things will get worse. Theres so much war, if people clash so badly on answers it shows what our world today is like. Its really sad, I fear for my boys, its scary. I remember when I was a child (i am only 23) the news was a good thing on a night, its all death and war now, theres nothing good in the news. We have a world full of crime, war everything bad. I really can't see an end to it, we are at war now, but whats it going to do, when the troops pull out the terrorists are still gonna keep going regardless. How did it get this way, I wish everyone would get along and realise we are all equal. Everyone has their idea of an ideal world. No murderers, paedophiles, thief's, terrorists, a world where you could leave your bike in the street and your backed door unlocked. hopefully we will have progressed on the technology field also. and have a cure for diseases like cancer and aids that would be the best thing

Answer 2

If and it is a very big IF, it still exists it will be a very changed landscape, The British Isles will probably have disappeared under the sea and everywhere that survives global warming will be just as it is now but with the poor getting poorer, the rich getting richer and the poor idiots in the middle voting for the same bunch of irresponsible politicians they vote for now!
Personally I think some idiot will press the button and start the chain reaction of total nuclear war before then and the poor planet will be knocked out of orbit and get pulled into the sun or spiral away and all life will freeze to death!
As I'm not planning on reaching 110 years old I won't be here to see it anyway!

Answer 3

Alot more of what you see now. More pollution, more garbage, more obesity, more disease, more poverty, more racism, more governmental bullsht, more animosity, more population, more diversity, more charity, more homelessness, just more everything. What I hope happens, is that people will start replacing negativity with positvity and strive more to do the right thing in life. Stop bad behaviour and just for once do the right thing all the way around. Without a few epiphanies and a whole lot of spirituality, not much is going to change or get better.

Answer 4

The Hudson Bay will still be frozen, but the ice caps will be retreating alarmingly. Birds will do very well with vast new areas of land and higher rainfal increasing insect population. Birds will be greatly assisted in their move North not just by the milder wetter weather, but by the human drift north wards from the poorer south. Shops making lots of money from the huge increase in bird seed sales by people hoping to battle the huge increase in insect population. Unfortunately the increase in insects like mosquitos will be alarming in Canada with all its water becomming warmer, and may well be a new problem for traditionally mosquito free countries like England. The wind storms will greatly increase with onshore whirlwinds causing increasing problems. The right wing politicians in the USA will finally admit to global warming being caused largly by North American industry, and their Politicians trying to hide the truth in fear of new anti polution laws. In fact the stringent anti-polution laws being imposed will creat new jobs, and the cleaner air and compulsory recycling, will assist a more healthy but still overweight North America. Increasing huricane activity will finally have an impact on Floridas desirability as a retirement haven. Warmer storm free areas of the country will become more desirable real estate for retirees. ie The Rio Valley along the Texas border. Getting property insurance within fifty miles of the oceans will become very expensive but will not deter the growth in 'Storm Proof' housing construction along American beaches. While sea levels will not rise much, the impact of storms along the coastal areas will cause increasing problems, damaging New Oleans rebuilding. Northern Europe will become more habitable and tourism will increase, starting a minor reverse migration from the US. Wild animal conservation sanctuaries will help most animals survive and create many new jobs. Ilegal imigration and drug traffic from Mexico will increase, better policing creating many more jobs.

Answer 5

Pretty much the same.
I am not like everyone else here. These are a bunch of miserable pessismists. I think there will be be all of the things that are great about life: young love, springtime, still acceptance and still forgiveness.
Please people, open your eyes and see all that we have, and make today great for somebody you love. If you're miserable, that's your choice. You don't have to try to pull other people down, but even if you do, some of us, who choose to be happy, aren't going down like that.

Answer 6

I think the USA will no longer be a world power. Between attacking countries that have done nothing wrong and spending money we do not have, we will end up either being attacked or engulfed by the country that has loaned us the most money.

Answer 7

Nice avatar of the Prodigal Son's nostrils. You get a cookie.

Answer: Chaotic. Go marketing and population overload!

Answer 8

Much like it is now, overall. Fifty years isn't very long in Earth history. More technology. Less cash usage. Faster travel. Longer life span for humans. More world hunger.

Answer 9

in 50 years i see this world just coming to an end everything just gets worst and grder day on

Answer 10

Radioactive blasted plate glass landscape covered in snow as far as the eye can see. Of course there wouldn't be anyone left to see it.

Hope I am very much mistaken...
