I was wondering about where evolution might be taking our species at the moment.
I`ve seen this question in forums before but it usually seemed to devolve into man mutating wings and laser eyes!
I`d like to be realistic if only for a moment.
I`d like to hear some ideas of possible long ranging consistent pressures in our environment/societies that could lead to new mutations in humans and what those mutations might do to alter our physiology/societies.
I think the first steps would to be to define,verify, and categorize possible environmental/societal pressures that exist now which could have the longevity to force selection for mutation.
Any guesses?
