History of the Future-Assignment #3

Have you ever wondered how much our lives could change in the next century? To list the obvious, if we are still alive we will be over 100 years old, or dead. However, that is not what this blog is about. In this blog I will be talking about how the environment, the population, politics, and big historical events might change or take place in the next century.
The environment is probably one of the biggest changes that might impact our lives in the 22nd century. For example, due to all our carelessness we already have global warning, which will soon dry up all the water on earth. Also, sooner or later there won't be enough trees for paper, which probably means that in the 22nd century or later the children would probably never see paper in their lives. Without as many trees there is going to be a few more changes that might take place. For instance, usually when children play together in the park, their first suggestions are to climb trees or play hide and seek. However, that is going to be a little hard because there probably aren't going to be as many trees in the park as there usually is. Also, in the next few centuries, due to all the technology taking place, and all the self sufficient factories that have been in Canada for centuries, may as well pollute the air and have the people shifted to another planet. It's a good thing they found water on Mars. Therefore, if we don't find a way to save our planet from pollution soon, Earth is not going to be in good condition in the 22nd century (2109).

The population is going to change a little as well. To begin with, it might not be as soon as the 22nd century but at some point in time our planet will be over populated. However, by 2109 the population on Earth and in Canada will be a lot more then it is now. A few reasons why I said that is because when Canada first became a country there weren't as many citizens as there are now. For example, when I was learning about New France, they mentioned that they had to pay citizens to marry early (at the age of 16-20) and have a family. By the next few centuries they are probably going to have a limited amount of children allowed per family, just like I read in a book about the 22nd century.

I don't think that there is going to be much change for politics, unless our prime minister is an alien or a robot. Which can be possible, yet unlikely. However, I do think that there will be a big political based historical event. For example, since in America they already have a black president, I think that by the time it is 2109 we will have our first native, black or someone of a different background as our prime minister. Maybe that prime minister might be one of you. Who knows? Another big historical event that might happen in the next few centuries, is that a few of our astronauts might visit Mars. Their visit to Mars will probably lead to some of our citizen visiting Mars, and soon some of us would actually be able to go there for a holiday or to go shopping or something. That would be an experience alright.

Overall, I think that by 2109 we the people, Canada, and Earth will be going through many changes that may effect us in many ways. But we can't be certain because 2109 is a long time from now and anything can happen during that period of time.

Wonderful writing and some great ideas.

I don't think that Joe Biden, the Vice President of the US, would appreciate being called a woman, though!
