    Underwater cities have everything humans need to thrive – the water itself can be used to create breathable atmospheres and generate hydrogen fuel through the process. Salient-resistant vegetation can be used as crops in the sea to feed us. (Image: samsung.com)

    Global warming means sea levels will increase, so that humans will have less land to live on. Architects, town planners and policymakers will probably eventually decide there is nothing they can do to effectively stop the sea from rising, and will suggest building towns under the ocean.

    Most of the Earth’s surface – 71% – consists of water. If that proportion is going to increase due to climate change, perhaps humans should consider living in the sea.

    Personal transport will be different

    By the year 2116, we’ll all be moving around in our own driverless, personal drones, which may also serve as ‘transport mules’ that carry heavy things around, including our workplaces and even our homes.

    In the future, when people go on holiday they’ll be able to take their homes with them. Imagine what holiday resorts like Ibiza, Bali or Cancun will look like. Perhaps, instead of lots of hotels and villas for rent, there’ll be many ultra-sophisticated caravan-style parks where you can park your house.

    Co-author, Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock, a space scientist who used to present the BBC monthly documentary television programme on astronomy The Sky at Night, explains that our lives today are virtually unrecognizable compared to how we used to live in 1916.

    They will have carried out a massive depopulation program before then

    I hope I'm not daft enough to reincarnate in to someone living in a place like that Cool

    The Morlocks in H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine did not make living underground seem fun. For one thing, their skin was sort of grey from lack of sunlight. But there are a lot of benefits to underground homes. Building houses underground lets residents of Coober Pedy, Australia live comfortably when the Fahrenheit temperatures up above reach into the 100s. Underground homes hold up equally well in snowy climes, and fans of Laura Ingalls Wilder will remember her dugout house on the banks of Plum Creek in Minnesota. The earth helps insulate the house and protect it from wind.

    That eco-friendliness is just one reason someone might consider building an abode underground. If the house is in an area with lots of wildlife, digging in could help keep more of the landscape intact. Also, cities such as Singapore — where there are lots of people and little room — are looking into ways to increase capacity by building below the surface.

    If we’ve sold you on the benefits of living underground, may we also suggest you take inspiration for your home from Huntsmere and NC Homes? Together, the two firms designed a proposed underground house that has the best of both the above- and underworld. The potential site would be on the grounds of a 19th Century house in England, below a landscaped garden. With three bedrooms and a circular shape, everything centers around a dome that lets in natural light. A garden “folly” (a building typically constructed for no aesthetics instead of function) would hide the stairs down to the house. The best part, though, is the slide to the subterranean swimming pool.

    They are already carrying out their 'massive depopulation program' and have been for some time.

    Come hell or high water (naturally caused or otherwise lol), I'm not returning to Earth.

    Project Everyone.  No question about it, with a camera up everyone's butt.


    If this is about 'freeing souls', I think you can only save one:  your own.

    After mulling it over, there's only one solution I can come up with:  don't return to Earth.

    No. Maybe in the 5th dimension, maybe not.

    I think all of time has already happened, so if you do decide to come back then you already did :)
