People: With the large amount of youth in the world today, a great number of us will be affected by what the world is going through. Many youths do not have the benefits of being well educated and may look at the way life has changed in many places in the world because of war and terrorism. They will either choose to become sympathetic to the victims, or see a value in the attacks that are happening. Our generation, in my opinion, will be very important in the direction of this world at 2050.

Technology: Tech will definately advance and I am hoping more effecient forms of energy use are implemented and running throughout the world by 2050.

Wars: Wars will be more deadlier with advanced technology, but wars will also be less frequent with the constant threat of nukes and chemical warfare. Hopefully countries will look to more diplomatic ways of solving conflicts.

Methinks in 2050, either China or EU is going to rise as the new Superpower.

OIC is still going to be divided, mainly because they don't along women at all in the club, and no offense, but women usually have more inclination towards peace rather than war, and are more useful in multitasking and in getting the details down. So that's that.

UN will eventually be disbanded, after the gradual erosion of its influence.

UN Security Council will cease to have its importance, except if they get with the program, get rid of the P5 members who are riding on past glories and have new members.

Whaddayathink?

2050 as i envision it:

Africans: wiped out if things dont change for the better in the next five years

Africa: occupied disease free and so much richer

Sounds pessimistic or exxagerated? just check out your statistics on Africa's population,how many people she looses in a minute to untimely and "problems" related deaths and what continuation of that will mean.

Africans,am not being fatalistic or without hope, just trying to get us recognise the gravity of our situation and give us the will to overcome with decided efforts and without looking elsewhere for help.the "its gonna be alright" attitude without action wont help.Lets not rest on our laurels thinking our situation will change with help from others or by itself coz the future just might happen without us, you know,Africans not living to see the day when(INSERT the highest point technology can reach)!!!

People : people will stay the same, always have, always will.

Technology : :S too scary, frightening, interesting, amazing to think about sometimes...

Wars & Disbutes : there will come a time when war will either be impossible to carry out due to every country having nuclear weapons and too afraid of the retaliation, or when war does happen, we will all be wiped out in a "nuclear holocaust"...


Poverty : hmmm. i would like to say it is all gone, but then i wonder what type of society we will have... first we will have to get rid of capitalism? hmmm.
