Impacts: Alteration to lifestyle due to overwhelming pollution
Combined extent impacts of air, water, and land pollution will cause irreversible environmental damage which is permanent, and will lead to toxic environment similar to Mars and Jupiter. As a result, the earth will be uninhabitable environment for every living organisms. This will lead to:
high rates of extinction of biodiversity and high rates of death rates of human
the rapid undergoing of adaptable species to mutate to better evolve in the sudden change in environment.
Therefore in search of survival on Earth for humans:
a city is covered up with shield where communities activities are one freely together and protected from the harsh environment outside.
water resources becomes scarce, leading to rationing and search for alternatives, development of synthetic liquid similar to water.
unusable land due to toxic soil will change agricultural practice; poisonous foundation for humans to stay on in effect human habitat will be shifted underground to support large population.
artificial synthetic air/recycled air/purified air used as a result of poisonous atmosphere.
a protective suit with astronomical-like features are used in rendezvous outside shielded city into the polluted environment.
alternative food supplies consumed as wide spread species extinction and mutation which are toxic and poisonous.
emergence of evolved species due to mutation which are predatory and dangerous to human populations.
economies change due to changing human activities in order to adapt to the new living environment.
