Millenium Project - how UN sees the future

United Nations Millenium   Millenium


The Millennium Project filed a report that underlines the major problems of humanity in the near future: overpopulation, famine, violence, decline of moral values, organized crime, wars.

Also they say that the worlds population will reach 9,8 billion people somewhere near 2050 and by 2100 it will suddenly drop to 4,3 billion.

This is a very sudden drop in population for 50 years. It would be interesting to see what they think about what could cause such a major decline.

Millennium Project was initiated by the United Nations in 2002 to develop a concrete action plan for the world to achieve the Millennium Development Goals and to reverse the grinding poverty, hunger and disease affecting billions of people.

The name reminded me of the old TV Series - Millenium. Considering the name and the topics illustrated in the tv series, I would say that it is inspired from the real organization, at least partially.

With E71 Nokia managed to find the right recipe for the modern business phone.

The tech specifications are very impressive, placing the phone in a class of its own.

E71 has a special design, derived from E51 and E61.

This phone promises to be the first one from the last years by Nokia that continues the 6310i legacy.
