Hawaii’s corals in peril: Unprecedented acid surge threatens reefs by 2050

July 23, 2025 - 2050.

Hangover-less synthetic alcohol to replace all ‘traditional’ alcohol by 2050

October 06, 2016 -

But now there is a form of alcohol on the horizon that is said to eliminate that risk -- but there is a risk to the potential reward.

Katie Forster of The Independent has reported that "The new drink, known as 'alcosynth', is designed to mimic the positive effects of alcohol but doesn’t cause a dry mouth, nausea and a throbbing head, according to its creator Professor David Nutt."

The MYOPIA epidemic: Why half the world may need glasses by 2050

a month ago -

In the span of just a few decades, myopia—commonly known as nearsightedness—has surged from a relatively rare condition to what some experts now call an epidemic.

The financial burden is immense, with the U.S. alone spending up to $7.2 billion annually on vision care. But what's driving this rapid rise, and ...

CNN writer suggests forcing “carbon passport” on travelers to meet carbon footprint target by 2050

December 17, 2023 - 2050.

The tour operator's report also predicted the full roll-out of carbon passports, which should start by 2040, and for emission reductions to have any meaningful effect, ticket prices would have to rise by 1.4 percent each year. As rising prices continue to hunt Americans, this should discourage holidaymakers from flying.
