Stunning stuff! I’d imagine the water, especially in the St. Mary’s plate, to be MUCH dirtier though as London is not the cleanest of cities! I think my favourite is the St. Paul’s one.

Those CGI guys have been busy ! The technology still is not quite there, everything looks a bit to clean and glossy but keep trying.

Maybe the white oak at the Tate was irreparably water stained?

Does EVERYTHING have to reflect the New Socialist Realism or whatever? Does every piece of art have to show the dystopian future? Sure, if things go south and we can’t make artificial fertilizer we’ll lose three or four billion people to starvation in the first two years, but after that things will settle down and there’ll be time for fishing and tinkering with bicycles and diving off balconies. And little girls will still wear white dresses and play hide and seek. If you want to look at paintings of mass graves and famines, paint ‘em yourself.

And quit whining. You sound like my grandmother.

Nice one, but we saw the opposite future in 2039 - no water left in our version.

Fee, figh, foe, fum! I smell the rub-a-dub of some English sea scum! You blokes knew what you were getting into when you sailed from Anglia and Saxony to Britain, then occupied by the Romans and Celts. It’s been a good 1600 years — your empire reached around the globe and spawned a country that would ultimately dissolve into the grey goo of George W. Bush. Time to pack it in and head for the highlands of Wales and Scotland!

Oh, come on - “millions of coastal refugees”?

75% of the world’s population would probably have died out already from starvation (due to loss of farmland) and subsequent resource wars.

Sheesh, Chuck. Get a grip.

(On the other hand, global warming trends are always followed by varyingly precipitous global cooling trends - read “Ice Ages” - so the pics are just a fantasy after all. Now if everyone in the images were wearing mukluks while ice fishing…)

Didn’t recognize a thing, and I only left London 40 years ago after 20 years there, so you can see how it’s all ALREADY changed!
