Nikola Tesla is a great inventor of Serbian origin, who at one time conquered the world with a multitude of ideas and inventions ahead of an entire era. In addition, Tesla was not afraid to make predictions about the future of mankind and we will now talk about them.
Ecological catastrophy
In the early 1930s, Tesla gave an interview, where he said that in the 21st century people will face the most powerful environmental problems that they themselves will create. He was confident that the world's leading countries would have to unite to fight this.
Nikola Tesla predicted the emergence in the United States of a government organization for the protection of the environment (the Environmental Protection Agency actually began to function on December 2, 1970), which will have to ensure the safety of its own citizens and help other countries.
“By 2100, people will pollute the coastlines so much that drastic measures will be required to eliminate the consequences. There will be a global shortage of drinking water, and what remains will need to be treated. It will be very difficult for our great-grandchildren to survive in the new world, ”Tesla said.
Robotics
Tesla believed that robotics would begin to develop actively in the 21st century, and in a century robots would occupy the niche that in the distant past was occupied by the slaves of ancient empires. The inventor linked the rapid development of civilization with the arrival of robotics.
“Humanity has a lot of problems due to the fact that we do not want to let robotics into our lives. Robots have to do the most dangerous and hard work, and people have to do science and discoveries. I'm trying to make robots, but it is very difficult to find investors, ”Tesla shared his opinion.
alternative energy
Nikola Tesla was right when he said that in the 21st century people will have global environmental problems, coupled with many cataclysms. Humanity will have to switch to alternative energy so as not to aggravate the situation.
“By the middle of the 21st century, people will realize that fossil fuels are creating a lot of problems for the Earth. A massive transition to alternative energy will begin and at the end of the XXII century people will be surprised how they even thought of burning something in order to get energy, ”concluded Tesla.
