The political leaders decided to ignore the rising global temperature and as well as the sea level. 2030: The political leaders reinforced their opinions that there was no need to protect the environment. They announced that the earth was only a launching pad for human beings, and we should use the natural resources on earth efficiently and quickly so that we could escape from the earth and colonize other planets.

Scientists suggested the government build underground shelters for the future generations. 2100: The earth was running out of fossil fuels. 2110: Most countries completed their underground shelters, and people drew to decide whether they could enter the underground cities.
