the Little Ice Age (A.D. 1300 to 1850) and a period of vast European exploration now
known as the Age of Discovery. But what if we could look 500 years into the future
and glimpse the Earth of the 26th century? Would the world seem as different to us
as the 21st century would have seemed to residents of the 16th century? For starters,
what will the weather be like?
Depending on whom you ask, the 26th century will either be a little chilly or infernally hot.
Some solar output models suggest that by the 2500s, Earth's climate will have cooled back
down to near Little Ice Age conditions. Other studies predict that ongoing climate change and
fossil fuel

use will render much of the planet too hot for human life by 2300.

Some experts date the beginning of human climate change back to the Industrial
Revolution in the 1800s, others to slash-and-burn agricultural practices in prehistoric times.
Either way, tool- wielding humans alter their environment -- and our 26th century tools
might be quite impressive indeed.
Theoretical physicist and futurist Michio Kaku predicts that in a mere 100 years, humanity
will make the leap from a type zero civilization to a type I civilization on the Kardashev
Scale. In

other words, we'll become a species that can harness the entire sum of a

planet's energy. Wielding such power, 26th-century humans will be masters of clean
energy technologies such as fusion and solar power. Furthermore, they'll be able to
manipulate planetary energy in order to control global climate. Physicist Freeman Dyson, on
the other hand, estimates the leap to a type I civilization would occur within roughly 200
years.

Technology has improved exponentially since the 1500s, and this pace will likely continue in
the centuries to come. Physicist Stephen Hawking proposes that by the year 2600, this
growth

would see 10 new theoretical physics papers published every 10 seconds. If

Moore's Law holds

true and both computer speed and complexity double every 18

months, then some of these studies may be the work of highly intelligent machines.
What other technologies will shape the world of the 26th century? Futurist and author

Adrian Berry believes the average human life span will reach 140 years and that the

instead of birthdays. When children


reach a certain designated age, they learn the laws,

beliefs, customs, songs and dances of their tribes, Some African tribes consider that
children from nine to twelve are ready to be initiated into the grown up world. They
may have to carry out several tests.
Masai boys around thirteen years old to seventeen undergo a two stage initiation.
The first stage lasts about three months. The boys leave their parents' homes, paint
their bodies white, and

are taught how to become young warriors. At the end of this

stage, they have their heads shaved and they are also circumcised. The second stage,
the young warriors grow their hair long and live in a camp called a manyatta where
they practice hunting the wild animals that might attack the Masai herds. This stage
may last a few years. When they are ready, they will marry and become owners of large
cattle herds like their fathers.
The girls are initiated when they are fourteen or fifteen. They are taught by the
older women about the duties of marriage and how to care for babies. Soon after that
they are married and lead a life similar to that of their mothers.
