Utopian Earth: What's In Store For Humanity Over the Next Hundred Years?

Many scientists, inventors, and futurists have made some bold predictions for the next hundred years. The next fifty alone are primed to change the core of our lives in ways most don't believe possible. The headway that mainstream biologists, chemists, and inventors across the spectrum of science say will be made is astounding. The political and corporate powerhouse elite do not want some of these marvels to come to fruition due to major losses in their respective fields of investment and holdings. As I've stated before in previous blog posts, the technology to make many of these changes has been known for almost a century. It's the political machine that has kept them under wraps due to them not being able to profit from their implementation. From energy to bio-science. Information technology to transportation. Philosophy to Sex. Our world is preparing for vast changes across the entire spectrum of all things big and small that will effect our lives in ways we are just beginning to dream of. What were once the visions of Sci-Fi writers are now beginning to manifest into our physical world.

What would it be like to live to live a thousand years? Well, Bio-medical Gerontologist,  Dr. Aubrey De Grey, is working hard to one day make this a possibility for anyone who chooses to take advantage of such a future medical program. He spends much of his time lobbying to convince people it would be a good idea. He states that many people are open to the idea but are afraid they aren't young enough to benefit from such advances in science. Like any other major undertaking (no pun intended), a massive amount of addition funding is required in order to buy scientist salaries, equipment and supplies, facilities, etc. to create this veritable fountain of youth. He goes on to say that as research continues to progress then perhaps in fifteen years time that treatments might be sufficient to extend human lifespans an additional fifty to one hundred years. Then, as technology and research progresses, lifespans would keep extending more and more.

See what Dr. Aubrey De Grey has to say

Fields such as nanotechnology are progressing and combining with the medical field, making it a possibility to fight and one day cure all known diseases, illnesses, and viruses at the source. Cell sized nanobots will be able to be programmed to circulate through the bloodstream and throughout the brain to attack and kill cancer cells and other malevolent forces that can birth themselves in the body. The mapping of the human genome will be at an affordable cost of about one thousand dollars in less than ten years. This will enable individualized health care to be customized to each patients precise genetic map. Stem cell pharmacies will one day exist, which will advance health care in ways that also alter the way medicine is administered at its core.

The moral implications of extending human lifespans apply to the family dynamic and religious topics. Questions such as "Why should a parent be able to outlive their child by choice?" ring as the topic inches its way into mainstream scientific discussions. God is becoming more a universal symbol and less a separate deity. With each passing generation religion is being phased out. It has been shown that science is slowly overtaking religion. Generalized beliefs such as spirituality and Buddhism are becoming more prevalent among the younger generations. This is expected to trend further as each future generation comes into the world. Yoga, Qi-Gong, Tai-Chi, and martial arts in general are spreading in interest with the younger generations as well. Rightfully so. Every major spiritual leader and guru out there have shown through astrology that Earth is entering an entirely new era of awakening. The age of Aquarius has begun. It is no longer dawning. It is here.


Real three dimensional cities printed entirely by machines are now possible with the advent of large robots armed with millions of tons of concrete. The day of the home builder will one day be a thing of the past. These robots can even climb the buildings and print sky scrapers. The time and cost of creating these buildings and homes is vastly less than traditional methods of construction. Both material and labor are greatly cheaper than the costs incurred by current home builders. Far less waste. Little to zero waste product is created by the machines. Customization is infinite with a few simple computer design program changes, these robots can "print" any shape with materials that are stronger. The walls are are five to ten times stronger. Plumbing and wiring are also coming into the capabilities of these robots as well. As someone who has made a fair living in the past from plumbing and H.V.A.C; I know this concept would wipe out many industries, leaving massive numbers unemployed. However, if they implement the machines over time then new kinds of jobs will become available in the construction industry.

Mapping the human brain and all its separate centers of activity is one of the main concepts that author, futurist, inventor, Ray Kurzweil has been working on. He is one of the leading minds in the area of the singularity, the point where computers and humans become as one. He says that perhaps by the year 2049 that computers and humans becoming fully integrated is a distinct possibility. Real life androids with emotions, feelings, and an intelligence that makes IBM's "Watson" look like a child stricken with autism. Even the possibility of ingesting billions of nano-computer chips that give us eternal mental access to the internet, and that cure us of all disease at the same time. Combining multiple fields of technological and medical science seem to be a theme among most futurists.

Love sex? Never want to get married, yet have a beautiful woman in your bed whose only purpose is to please you? Well, the personal robot prostitute might be here for those who weren't so blessed in the romance department. By the year 2040, a "robo-wifey" just might make your day.

Well known physicist, Dr. Michio Kaku, states that we are less than twenty years away from fusion energy. Far cheaper, cleaner and safer than any other energy source out there. It would one day shut the door on big oil and do away with nuclear energy. Inventor Nicola Tesla would be happy to know that wireless household electricity will likely be ubiquitous by 2035. Steps towards making energy far more economic and almost a hundred percent efficient are being made every day, whether big brother likes it or not.

Self driving cars will be mainstream by 2035-2050, many professionals portend. We will send a manned mission to Mars in the mid 2030's, many astrophysicists agree. If the key to harnessing anti-matter can be unlocked, then perhaps toward the end of the century or the beginning of the next we would have a space craft capable of inter-stellar travel. Imagine setting foot on another Earth-like planet.

A water purification system has been invented that can clean any kind of water, including sea water to beyond even what we drink from name brand bottled water today. Vertical farming is an agricultural concept that will be put into action in big cities where it's harder to get local sources of food. Once food and clean water is available to all people of the world then that will simply add many more to the equation of forward progression and the economy. The more educated, healthy contributors we have, the better for all mankind.

All of these wonders are a look at what is store for us in the future. Much of it could impact the lives of us who are on the older side, too. But, the political machine has left the world in financial chaos. Tensions of war are brewing and the last vestige of aggression are playing themselves out on the world stage. More people are waking up and beginning to speak loudly that they are sick and tired of being stepped on by their respective governmental systems. Protests have been escalating across the world for some time now. People want change. They are tired of the hate, greed, violence, and racism that have plagued our beloved planet for far too long now. They are fed up with all the suppressed technologies for the sake of placing more cash in the vaults of the wealthy elite. The time for the world to speak up is now. Our time to begin creating peace on Earth is now. Heaven will arrive one day. We will co-create it together as a unified people. No more borders. No more hate. Only love will take us there. Unconditional love for fellow human beings.
