Future Homes
What will happen to the people living in the flood- (likely to be flooded) areas or below sea level? Global warming along with the melting glaciers and polar ice caps (will surely) raise the ocean surface because, after all, where could all that water go? The waves could engulf some (next to the sea) areas making part of the land (impossible to live in).
Family Planning
Women have (made vulnerable) themselves to the risks caused by hormonal contraception. With a new invention, it looks like family planning will also become men's responsibility. Tests on male mice show that a (mixture) called JQ1 results in fewer sperm.
JQ1 works by (preventing) a protein known as BRDT, which is (critical) for reproduction. As mouse and human BRDT proteins are similar, JQ1 already proceeded to clinical tests on men in 2013. The effect was also (possible to undo).
Grub's Up
You don't have to worry about (lack) of food if you don't mind eating the most ecological and (nutritious) food in the world — insects. By no means a rarity in many cuisines, Western (taste buds) will soon learn to appreciate crickets, for instance, which have a nutty shrimp flavour, or bee larvae, which taste like bacon with chanterelles. There are more than 1,900 arthropods (suitable to be eaten) to humans, so there's plenty to choose from.
Space Junk
The amount of (trash) orbiting our planet is ludicrous and, within a decade or two, all space junk will make it difficult for satellites to function properly and cause greater risks of collision for spacecraft.
According to calculations by experts, the number of human-generated objects floating in the low Earth orbit could be anything between 19,000 and 170 million pieces, constantly increasing as more and more space exploration takes place. Sooner or later, these nuts, bolts, and also larger objects like (not working) and (ignored) satellites will result in malfunctioning satellites.
