aspects of this, it is moving towards more intermixing, helping each other know each other
better.
The National Geographic also states that in the year 2050 society will involve a multi racial
future where we will all look similar because of all the interracial mixing that is occurring. The
Pew Research Center states that in 2013 6.3 % percent of marriages in the United States alone
were from people of different races.
According to Dr. Fleet places with more diverse groups
have more chances of this occurring compared to places
like Iceland that are homogenous, the chances of
mutation are extremely rare or not at all. This type of
genetic sequence can occur because of migration,
sexual selection, natural selection, and chance.
With places that are homogenous if the trait never gets
passed on like how it is in society today that gene
becomes dormant because of no genetic mixing.
However just because increased racial mixing is
occurring in this world doesnt mean we can expect the
end to groups like gingers anytime soon. These groups
still have the possibilities of mixing together and
keeping these genes alive.
When it comes to genetic mutation it really is by chance but there arent negative side effects.
According to Dr. Fleet in fact the more genetics an individual has they tend to be more
successful.
Dr. Fleet also mentions that the mega race occurring in 2050 is highly doubtful because that is
too close from now. Genetic effects like this become beneficial for us because with tensions in
society it makes us more connected. Whether it is mutation or a new race, the world is changing
with or without us.
