Week 8 - William Moran - Global Warming

 I traveled 5,000 years into the future and am currently floating over what was Los Angeles, California. I never thought we would be living in such a dystopic future. There isn't enough land for everyone to comfortably live on anymore so most people live in floating cities. The closest comparison to what I'm currently viewing is the movie Water World. Since the onset of the Industrial Revolution in the 1900's the world has been in a slow decline. Very few governments had Carbon reduction plans in place and by the time they did, it was too late. The greenhouse gasses caused such a significant rise in temperature that the polar caps are almost nonexistent in 7010. If leaders of the free world 5,000 years ago could see what 7010 looks like maybe they would be in more of a rush to fix the damage that we have done.
