<p> Humans have not gone unnoticed on this planet. We’ve left our mark with technology, agriculture, architecture, and a growing carbon footprint. But where is this trajectory headed?</p>
<p> In the first of a two-part series: what will be lost and what will still be around 100 years from now? James Lovelock says a hotter planet will prompt mass migrations. And Cary Fowler urges us to save our seeds – the health of future farms may depend on it.</p>
<p> Plus, from antibiotics to sewage systems: why human ingenuity ultimately saves the day. </p>
<p> And, sure, humans will be around in a century, but – with bionic limbs and silicon neurons – would we recognize them?</p>
