We'll be able to go on holidays to Mars and other planets.
Full alien disclosure will have happened.
Petrol won't be used anymore, hydrogen or electricity will be the number one energy source for cars.
Bigfoot and many other cryptids will have been discovered.
Planes will be able to travel at the speed of light.
Genetic engineering will be at a level where true chimeras can be made - though what the implications of this will be for humans, I dread to think.
Organised religion will no longer exist.
Cybernetics will be the new plastic surgery.
Cyrogenic freezing will have been massively improved, and lifespans will have risen significantly too.
All of that is of course, if the world doesn't end this December;)
Paper publications, as opposed to Kindle pads etc, will be far rarer. This will be largely due to far fewer wooded areas for paper, in turn due to population increase necessitating greater urbanisation. Quite possibly, use of paper will be rationed for 'hard copies' of very important documents.
Driving through large areas of greenland and field, as one can do now in some areas, is likely to be a thing of the past, due to the same issues of urbanisation I mention above. What unbuilt land there is will be mostly devoted to crops. There will also be a lot more indoor farming of plants, under artificial sunlight, due to the land constraints.
Everyone will have portable tablet computers. Houses themselves will be constructed with general purpose utility screens, for internet, email, and viewing drama and documentaries.
Fossil fuels will be pretty much gone, so energy will be from a mix of natural alternatives, like solar, wind and dried animal manure, and nuclear/radioactive/chemical sources. The latter, combined with the likely high population density and large size of buildings in the future will lead to the occasional appalling disaster in which there are very large numbers of casualties.
Some people will still try to blame Margaret Thatcher for everything that's wrong with the UK.
No, by 2212, half the people will be harking back to the bad old days of Xavier Dalrymple-Smith, in the 2150s, as the era when the old values of society broke down-while the other half will think he was a hero, for trying to restore the old-fashioned, decent values of the Williamian era, under William the Fourth, in the mid 21st century.
The Euro, Dollar, Yen and Chinese currency will be the main currencies (possibly the Ruble too, if Russia isn't part of the EC, by then).
in 200 years time china will probably rule the world, the west will be a shadow of its former self but will still be powerful
pakistan and india will go to war, india will win, but millions will die
the uk will be completely broken up, immigration problems will mean the bnp or a similar party will rule the uk, their will be no monarchy
china will continue to takeover its neighbours after successfully annexing north korea, vietnam, laos and cambodia in the years previous
the chinese yen will be the major currency or a global currency will be in place
riots will take place all over the world because of poverty and innequality
starvation and famine will be rife as the global population will reach unmanageable levels
civil liaberties and freedom will be dramatically reduced
oil will no longer be vital, solar power and other renewables will be the main sources of power, this will eave the middle east in excruciating poverty, no one will help them though

BB will still running on Dave and the Queen will still be there.
We will have drained the earth dry of resources and will be starting to decimate E2....
I didn't even know she was in the house this year.

There's always one!
those things that you pedal out onto water on? Oh good! Although I tend to go round in circles....
:eek:

Not seen much of him the last couple of days.
You seem to have a bit of a hardon for crazychris.
Or are you one and the same person?
I asked that exact same question yesterday. I think they are.

Body parts will be grown
I did say that food would be artificial so famine should be a thing of the past
Cars without wheels - any council estate
Food completely artificial - tesco value meat & onion pies
