Many of you should know the story of evolution, how we have evolved to over come difficulties we are faced by.
Now with global warming on the rise and many of the ice caps melting, what do you think evolution will do for us?
I was thinking of this the other day and the image that popped in to my head was this:

I don't mean this extreme, but along these lines, what do you think?

We're going to lose all of our body hair eventually.
Men and women will be bald >_>
Bald women... eugh...
I also think our thumbs will become as long as, if not longer than our fingers.
They have continued to grow throughout our past evolutionary changes.

I have fairly long thumbs as it is, but we don't really need them to grow anymore?
The size they're at at the moment is fine, we can do basically everything we need to do with them.
Thumbs longer than fingers..eugh...

Personally, I don't even think we would evolve remotely to that level. If anything, I think we would adapt to a hotter climate, so as Narco said, being bald would be logical.
I'm not exactly the best with biology, but our bodies would eventually change to allow us to withstand hotter temperatures.

Babies are born without wisdom teeth now. We dont need those anymore. We are slowly evolving. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet.

Evolution takes million's of years if I remember correctly, you won't see any change soon.

I disagree with this, partly. Yes we will loose hair but body hair only.
Us humans have hair on our head as away of attracting a sexual mate if we start wearing caps maybe we will start going bald.
I belief our fingers will adapt, because we use keyboards, phones, controllers etcetera.
Maybe not though, our devices are well accommodated for our fingers , I don't see why our fingers would change, now that I think about it.

Even over millions of years there aren't huge changes, when you look at homo erectus and things we evolved from, they still resemble us.

Global warming isn't something that's going to properly effect us for millions of years, during the age of the industrial revolution and the burning of fossil fuels we haven't even scratched the surface of the ice caps. It's something to make us fear and change.
We will always evolve but by the time where any significance to our planet is made; from melting icecaps, we will either be extinct due to war and famine because of increasing populations and violence, wiped out due to strikes of meteors/asteroids or any things i could name.
If we do survive we will evolve, over the many years we have been on earth we have evolved loads and our increase in knowledge and technology will help to survive nearly everything, i'm sure by that time technology would have improved and we would be able to mine on other planetary systems or even just be so technologically advanced that we would have vehicles/buildings etc to survive natural disasters like tidal waves and tsunami's and whatever else.

Most of the top scientist are saying the we haven't had any drastic evolutionary changes for 10,000 years because we are becoming more advanced then what our bodies can adapt to.
