Picture: Andrew TauberThe anticipation of flying cars has long been a mainstay in any vision of the future but the advent of commercial drone technology could actually make it happen soon.“We’ve already seen how driverless technology is picking up rapidly,” Mr Riddell said.Well before 2050 he expects Australian roads to be filled with autonomous cars and eventually any nostalgic car lover who wants to keep their steering wheel will have to pay a highly expensive government license for the privilege.Shortly after that, he expects we’ll take to the sky.“Personal drones will absolutely be a thing by the year 2050,” Mr Riddell said.

And you’ll actually be able to feel that experience happening around you.“As time goes on you’ll get more and more input, so you’ll be able to feel what the weather is like” at the game while sitting in your living room.By 2050 Australia’s population is projected to reach as high at 40 million people, putting added stress on our coastal cities and environment.New science and tech innovation holds the promise of ushering in a more sustainable way of life but unless Australia replaces fossil fuels with renewable energy, we can expect to experience more severe weather events, says emeritus professor of science at Griffith University Ian Lowe.He is the former director of the Commission for the Future and was made an Officer of the order of Australia in 2001 for services to science and technology and for contributing to public understanding of environmental issues.He is concerned population growth and an increase in consumption could have adverse effects on Australia’s natural environment, potentially leading to unforeseen problems.“On current trends there will be approaching 40 million people in Australia by 2050 … and every government’s position is to increase per capita consumption so you’d expect the impact of humans on the natural environment in general, and biodiversity in particular, to be somewhere around double what it is now,” he told news.com.au.“We’re losing biodiversity at an alarming rate and we simply don’t know what the long term effect of that will be,” he said.“Basically we’re pulling random bricks out of the wall of life and we don’t know when whole sections will crumble.”As warnings about the need to halt, let alone reverse, the impact of global warming grow louder, Prof Lowe believes we can still shape the future of our environment with good policy decisions.“There is no one preordained future but a wide range of possible futures and which one happens will be the product of our decisions and actions,” he said.If climate change continues unabashed, Prof Lowe expects more severe storms like the recent cyclone Debbie to hit the Australian east coast.
