My Future Predictions
10 years ago
General
Today is October 21st 2015, the day where “the future” is our present and tomorrow it will be our past. As a mark of respect to the “Back to the Future” movie franchise I thought I would share with you my top 10 predictions for the next 30 years, most of which comprise of the world, space and entertainment.
But before we get started I might add that Back to the Future Part 3 was my favourite movie from the franchise and that I believe in only the “Bootstrap paradox” (aka: “Casual loop”) which is a theory about time travel.
My predictions for the next 30 years:
1. Pure petroleum powered cars will be a rare sight on public roads in the first-world as Hybrid, Hydrogen and electric (unfortunately) become more affordable.
2. China’s economy and influence will fall dramatically and a new power will influence the world stage.
3. The European Union will change enough for re-nationalization of European sovereign-states but to be used as a means for trade and diplomatic negotiations.
4. A national or international law concerning online or digital impulse buys will contests with the games industry to either limit or outlaw the use of in-game purchases which will cause a global effect on the games-industry.
5. Virtual reality will become a common necessity to the video games industry.
6. Humans will have landed on the moon in a mission to inhabit it.
7. The first signs of multicellular extra-terrestrial life will be discovered.
8. Sub-orbital flights to space will begin operations but with an expensive cost.
9. Live broadcasted television will be replaced entirely with on-demand style services with the acceptation of live-events and news-coverage.
10. A successful fully functioning platform comprised of a digital world with all aspects of life and other digital/online features will come into existence giving users a “second life” away from the real world. (Something more successful then SecondLife)

NOTE: These are only my personal predictions, feel free to comment and start discussions, but in the end these are all from my own little bird brain and no one else's.

The tensions between Russia and the European Union.
China's land grabbing and damaging intentional engagements with practically every country in the world.
The current war on terror in Syria.
Argentina against the UK (still -_- )
Palastine (Did you know it was Britain that caused it? Yeah... not something to be proud of...)
Essentially I can see many reasons for WW3, of which is would be Europe and America against the rest of the world but I think these will end up causing another cold war where everyone sanctions Russia and China and other issues are continued to be resolved. (In the case of Argentina: Spain sold us the Falklands! [effectively] so give up, you never owned the rights to them in any period of history in any shape or form!)
