What will be our Future and Fate during our time and or beyond that? Will we become strong and intellectual beings, will we be creating wonders in technology and exploring the many aspects of the universe?
Will we wage another war which society will crumble? Will a natural disaster consume all life on Earth? Or will Alien-Facehumping zombies eat our brains? I'd like to hear your opinions.

And eventually it would end, I really doubt that humans wouldn't be able to survive an Ice age.

Already survived one, and that was with little technology.

I disagree. We already have hydrogen fuel stations here in the US, as well as some stations offering rapid charging of electric vehicles. It simply hasn't been implemented in a wide spread fashion, and for it to be so truly wouldn't take more than a few months. We already know how to make hydrogen fuel stations, we have engines that run on hydrogen, we just haven't pushed them into a wide spread consumer market yet.

Ah. I forgot about how long mankind has existed. Yes, they could survive an Ice Age. Yes, but not prevent it.

That's why I said suddenly, over time the companies themselves will adapt, however if this happens suddenly, say in the space of 2 years, there will be severe effects on the economy.

We can get completely get rid of petroleum-driven cars and switch to electrically fueled cars short of six months. If the oil and car companies weren't so influential and bowed to the power of the Federal Courts, we could do it, too.

Technology is a major concern to me. I have been having this dream, which was also a lingering design for a ship that would be able to find intelligent life, or an unintelligent planet in which to inhabit. I beleive this would actually be possible, but only time would tell.

Other than that, I don't really think that technology can improve any further. The smartphones will eventually just become the standard computer. Much like a laptop, only in phone form. I think the only thing that could ever actually get more advanced would be military technology. Me and a few of my friends have brilliant ideas that would actually work.

I find it funny how me and a group of 3 friends know how to make weapons of mass destruction. I mean, one of my friends knows how to make a cobalt bomb that would be able to wipe out infantry. Only things holding us back is a budget.

If we ever find intelligent life in other planet I don't think we'll go to war. Unless they blast down the spaceship and study its remains and then use it against us and then blast our planet.

Another thing that may happen is a nuclear war or something, but I really hope it doesn't happen.

Or, mankind may pollute Earth enough to make it devoid of any life (including man).

Cobalt is not radioactive. Cobalt 60 is the radioactive isotope of Cobalt. I doubt your friend knows where to find Cobalt 60, or even do it himself.
