Where is the mention of millions of drones being used to watch the people by every police force around the world?
In the USA this will happen by 2020 guaranteed.
These predictions are way too "everything is going to be great".
They are also missing the listing for "there is now an anniversary of a mass murder by guns for every day of the year in the USA" which is far more likely in about a decade.
Also missing a marker for when 1% of the world population has more wealth than the remaining 99%.
My biggest fear of the future is right after they figure out how to make cheap, unlimited power is going to a massive number of wars. People like to imagine it will bring world peace but that's not human tendency. We seem to always go towards killing people.

The number of mass shootings per year in the US has not significantly changed in decades. Nor has the number of people killed in mass shootings.

I guess we are just quibbling about the word "mass"
If you're interested in total homicides take a look at the homicides rates for the past 60 years: http://i.imgur.com/3bFjZu4.png
2010 was about the same as it was in 1963. Homicides are not a growing problem in the US. Homicide rates have been dropping for years.
I got that chart from the Bureau of Justice statistics. http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=2221
Also the impact of environmental change and new energy technologies is largely omitted
