The first months of each year are the time for positive thinking and optimism for the future, but if you are Steve Hawking, there will be no "future" you look forward to.

The leading physicist presented a series of horrific predictions this year about how and when the world will end, ranging from robotic control to death to fireball, and so forth.
As Professor Hawking is one of the most famous scientists of our time, it may be useful to pay attention to his warnings to humanity.

Cambridge News published a list of the five most powerful theories on how and when humanity would end up in Hawking's view:

1.Death by fireball:

The theory suggests that all humans will die in less than 600 years, when the Earth becomes too densely populated, resulting in the planet being burned by the consumption of all its energy resources, the Earth becoming like the red planet.

"By 2600, the world's population will be at stake because of the energy consumption that will make the Earth a hot red glow," Hawking said at the Tencent WE summit in Beijing last November.

To save ourselves, you must "dare to go where no one has gone before," pointing out that other planets are the solution, so it is necessary to develop technology that will help us travel at the speed of light.

2. Robots will control the world:

"We need to go ahead with the development of artificial intelligence, but we also have to take into account its real risks," Hawking said.

3. Life will end with human aggression and nuclear technology:

Hawking said he feared that evolution would inflame feelings of greed and aggression in the human genome. "There is no evidence of a decline in conflict, so the development of military technology and weapons of mass destruction can become catastrophic," he said. "The best hope for the survival of the human race It may be the creation of independent colonies in space. "

4. The end of the earth within 100 years:

Professor Hawking stresses that we need to fully explore our technological capabilities to avoid extinction. If we do not find another planet to live, climate change, increasing population, epidemics, wars and other factors will bring us to the end. "Because our planet has reached the point of no return "He said.

5."Donald Trump is pushing the land to the abyss":

When the US president announced in May his withdrawal from the Paris Climate Change Agreement, which aims to address the threat of global warming, Hawking was among the most repulsive of this decision, warning that Trump's decision "will push the land to the brink."

"We are close to the turning point where global warming is irreversible, and the Trump decision could push the Earth to become like Venus, with a temperature of 250 degrees Celsius and a rain of sulfuric acid," the scientist said.

"Climate change is one of the big risks we face, one of the factors that can be prevented if we work to confront it from now," said Hawking. "According to Hawking's view," Donald Trump "will lead to serious environmental damage that can be avoided, Everyone, especially children, is at risk. "
