Mother nature is compensating the cruality people have done all these years ... cutting trees, envoirnment pollution, over utilization of natural resources, wastage of precious gifts, taken by granted all these years. it wont go long... perhaps another 25 years. seems unlikely in the current mommentum.
Look at the news stories these days, heavy rain fall, earthquakes, overheat, tsunami, floods,natural disasters..its all are happening around us.

In future people may have to go "Oxygen Parlours" to breath fresh air.
Technology pace is fast and next generation live will be fully controlled by perhaps a single electronic device. it might a iphone , with a whole new gadgets added into it. may be it will be your epassport, emobile & all in one combined device. We cant imagine how it will be but its an exciting horizon of thought which brings imagination to the next level.
