h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

First, this is how it works out:
If my predictions are accurate, they are not accurate. That is, if this is how it would have been before I said it it no longer will be.



Okay, to put it plainly, the future is going to be hell.
I see the world as black. Scorched remains, an eternal aftermath. There's hardly any life. Oceans are poisoned, the sky is blackened, the sun barely shines anymore, there are no forests left. Everything has died to 5 centuries or smoke pouring out of our structures, combined with natural disasters. Rock moudns and whole litter the ground... and the sea.
The only moving things on the surface are structures, robots, and small animals. The cockroach moves by, the robots watch, and gather. The remnants, or future remnants, of attempts to fix it all, are scattered occasionally.
The smoke still comes. From fissures, cracks, wholes in the ground, etc. Humanity is thriving, to the extent that you can say so. We live underground, on artificial everything. Just a routine day, nothing chages much anymore. Underground the crust of the earth there are miles and thousands of miles of wires, communication. The whole world is connected, and equal, but at a low level of lifestyle.
The only beauty is that in the greenhouses, and hydroponics gardens. They can't live aboveground, so they don't.
I wish that schools would be more efficient and focused. But they aren't. Humanity is on a downward spiral, with the kids at the lead. Creativity is not as common, and some places run society liek regiments in an army, with duties and punishments and all.
Religion exists, still, unfortunately, common sense has not prevailed. The religions stand on the roots of hope, hoep by the people for everything, about by everything. Hope to no avail, however.
The people, being ruled and governed by the lucky and rich, and the stars in general, will still be this way. With the global communications no one is left out of the brainwashing.
The end is nigh is no longer the forecast it's in the history books.



May it never be this way.

Well your views seem very true but the futre has yet to come, maby someday at some time it can change.
But not at this rate.

It's really quite frightening... I hope the world's never liek that... but the chances of getting off that path are small, and those of straying further down it great.
