A water World with very little land following an horrific holocaust not seen since the aseroids that hit the earth and killed off the Dinosaurs. pockets of people will remain and they will have to adapt to self preservation as our ancestors did to survive.

My hope is that some people of incredible imagination and intellect will begin to devlop ways to ameliorate some of these issues.

Interesting reading both the post and the comments.  One day at a time is all I can think of, though I do look for the water situation and perhaps worse weather.

Re: Pat,

The waste-not, want-not thing has carried down through at least the generations of maybe over-50s, as we were raised by parents who lived through the hard times.  

I am thinking not of catastrophic changes, but not gradual ones, either, that will affect our grandkids and the generations ahead. Rising sea levels, definitely will shape our adaptive world along coasts, and if the ice age scenario plays out in the north, there will population crunches towards warmer climes...

You're right about how we re-used and made do. Nowadays it seems

wasteful to me how people buy things for one-time use, etc., etc.  I believe water will be one of those crucial differences between survival and not - but extreme weather and rising ocean levels will also be a factor that threatens coastal areas. Our roads are now crumbling, bridges too. Evacuating populations may be problemmatic.

Actually I don't want to think about the apocalypse any more. Sufficient unto the day is the sorrow thereof...
