In the future, a lot of things will change good or bad. the world for sure is going to be a very polluted place as people will keep on using coal and oil for power. maybe people will finally get over their differences and establish world peace. i sincerely hope that our scientific progress is not going to stop, as we already went extremely far, if we look back at the 90's. i think that people might finally go to space and start settling there in places like mars. the future can turn out in a lot of ways good or bad, so all of us need to step up and change!
