This is one of the more unsettling 'wild card' scenarios. Read the section on possible causes for why it should be taken seriously. * 2006: After two decades of debate, Global Warming is accepted as scientific fact. Meanwhile a few crackpots are warning of the next ecological disaster - DNA, they say, is becoming less stable, with possible devastating effect. They point to increasing levels of mutation in plant and animal kingdom, and an alleged decline in human fertility. The general consensus is that these are statistical artefacts. * 2046: Increased genetic instability is accepted as scientific fact. The precise cause is still a matter of debate.
