Reality of the future?
The BBC UK website recently published online a list of ideas about what the world would be like in 100 years from now. Fascinating and in places disturbing, it featured all kinds of theories, many sounding far-fetched or implausible. Could it be possible, for example, that a person could just simply think about purchasing horse insurance and then quickly do so via the internet? Yes, according to the study, and here were a few other featured ideas which are proving quite popular right now…
1) One currency for everyone: an idea that has already gained some momentum with internet payment companies like Paypal, this one is probably going to happen. Who know how it will affect us, but one thing is for sure, it’s already on the way!
California has long aired its views that it would prefer to remain on its own…
2) Algae to produce energy: we already know how to get energy from algae, so this one just involves doing so on a much more industrial scale. We’ve done the same with oil and shale gas, so this is perfectly believable and could happen within the next 30 years.
3) Space elevators for commercial use: this one sounds surreal…a Space elevator? You start on the earth and zoom up into Space? Believe it or not, this also sounds like it could easily happen. Our technology is already there to do this, after all. It’s more a case of the money catching the technology up (this is going to get quite expensive to say the least…).
4) Loss of languages: this is already happening. In the last 100 years plenty of languages have either fallen by the wayside or become less used. In the future we can expect to speak English, Spanish and Mandarin apparently, and from where we are sitting that looks about right!
5) The United States will disband: California has long aired its views that it would prefer to remain on its own than a part of the US. So this one looks highly likely. Don’t expect it in the next 10 years but don’t be surprised if there is more talk of this!
