I believe that:
-global warming will change the climate in the world's major crop-producing regions enough so that food production will decline to the point where massive starvation will occur, causing a wave of disease epidemics withing the next thirty years.
-someone will nuke Israel, causing major war in the mid-east, and this time Israel will not be giving any land back as before. All this of course hinges on whether or not her military survives the initial nuking.
-China will once again threaten to take Taiwan by force and we will be dragged into the fight. Nukes? Maybe.
-our system of government is the best on earth, but is being run by politicians who are corrupted by money, and are not working for the best interests of the people.
-we are from now on locked into a struggle with the more radical elements of Muslim religion. This is really scary if you consider the fact that these people make all their decisions based on religion, which to those who believe in it makes everything and anything they do right.
-excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, along with intensive farming practices are destroying the farmland in the midwest. Couple that with the fact that maor corporations are pushing the family farmer off the land and slowly gaining a monopoly on the basic food commodites in this country and you have a recipe for disaster.
Of course there are answers to all these problems, but as long as our politicians continue to be whores to corporate America instead of responsible public servants, I can't see how we're anything but fucked.
sweet dreams.
