We certainly cannot predict what is going to happen but we can make educated predictions based on our understanding of how evolution works. A lot of scientists and top researchers have focused much on the future. Their predictions give insights of what people should expect in the coming years. The world is dynamic and things are changing from old ways to new perspectives of life. Technology plays a major role in advancing human life making things easier. The world will be very different from what we all see now. Many scientists have predicted that the climate will worsen in most parts of the world where global warming seems to be caused by human activities. Most of their estimations are that the average temperature may rise above normal. The temperature may rise within the range of 1 to 5 degrees celsius, which may pose deadly consequences for humans. Other natural resources such as oil are expected to reduce in quantity. Humanity will run even out of renewable sources of energy. Technology will be more advanced and is visible in various ways having brilliant ideas that are due for implementation in the future. Most of the scientists tried to create life over decades. There is a prediction that some humans will possess more artificial characteristics rather than biological ones. Human robots will be used to enforce security and would have the ability to feel and coordinate with real people. Their programs are meant to be much help during a crisis or in war-torn areas. Let's just enter an imaginary world of the year 3000 - “Oh wait, What am I seeing? Is this even real? I can see humans adapted to this new life and just leading their life perfectly. They are so perfect, so accurate in their work. Wait! I doubt whether they are humans? Aren’t they humans? Damn! These are robots! Human invention! They look and function like humans. Now it's difficult for me to differentiate between humans and robots. I am wondering, where has this technology brought us today? What an excellent invention AI has given us. It’s beautiful”. Now talking about the future again, there will be more roads to accommodate the growing number of people with cars. The humans will have an average height of 200cm. The life span will increase to 120 years allowing humans to live beyond the current lifespan. Humanity will be advancing towards a brown skin tone and their nutrition will be improved by having a well understanding of the human body. The most important thing is that the year 3000 is predicted to attain the expected level of gender equality. Every gender will be treated equally regardless of age or race. The world will be evolving to a more comfortable life as everyone will receive fair treatment with respect and dignity. The next generation should expect the worst regarding climate and renewable energy. The year 3000 is seen as a year of preference. Technology will also rise to a greater extent making the world a better place. -
