In ten years, where will you be?
In ten years, under a best case scenario, I’ll be doing astrobiology on Mars. However under a more realistic vision of the future, I’ll be growing things. Flowers, herbs, shrubs, everything. Make the world green.

AfriGaget, Pop Tech and the TED talks.
I decided to follow AfriGaget and Pop Tech.
I really like the contrast between the two, Afri being low tech simple innovations for people and Pop being high-tech infrastructure changes. They make a good

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
