I don't think the human race will be around for even 10 million years. By then, we would probably have gone to the stars or simply gone extinct - or even de-evolved into non-sentient species either on Earth or some other worlds out in the galaxy.
But assuming we haven't completely wrecked the planet, life will go on. And ironically because of the human race, the mammals' reign could go on for a total of even longer than the dinosaurs! (While dinos ruled for 165 million years before the K-T Extinction, mammals have been in charge for only 65 million years since) But rats, other rodents and other hardy mammals like coyotes and pigs could diversify into other speices, taking up where species that extinct during the age of humans left off. This could set the stage for another 100 million years of mammalian dominance.
Earth will probably have no more ice ages after 50 million years from now, as the sun is slowly brightening throughout the main sequence stage long before it reaches the red giant stage (4 billion years from now). By as early as 75-100 million years from now, Earth might become a hot jungle world, and by 500 million years from now, it could be a largely hot desert planet with shrinking oceans with a Sun that's 10% brighter than it is now. 800 million years from now, it will end up as a carbon copy of present-day Venus.

We've been here for only 1+ million years. And the Atlantic is widening. The predictions is based on current continental movements.

well according to that we all have 250 million years to learn how to get along with every culture.

Thats some crazy predictions, I cant even imagine how I look in 50mil years from now, Maybe I resurrect as a turtle, Emu's resurrect as well emus !
Environment
How will our environment be, we're talking about the air pollution, the sea was were predicted to rise about 60 metre if all the ice around the world melted, but after when it turn into the pangea, the super continental is compact, thus the water will go below the "above waterline" since the the compact earth. is less then todays earth, right ? Continueing to: water gets below, evertything gets drawn to the centre, islands pop ups around the world since the water is below the level. ?
Man and woman:
I believe it will never be the same again, The sun is getting closer, thus everything will change, the hotter it gets, the more we have to change too to deal/survive to be able to live under these hotter enviroment.
I have read at National Geographic a couple of months ago, and it said our skin will change to cope the hot air, as the sun gets closer, thus we will get this hardened/thoughened solid skin, I dont want to imagine what that looks like !
Future:
Im not even sure that we will experience this happen, I mean not me nor am I talking about you, but our future family. By time time this happen, we will be billions of lightyears away from this earth, in our new Earth, Exploring the Space and see what's there as an alternative is something we will succeed in.
We'll find a better and bigger earth for the mankind to live in. You guys have heard about this right.. ???
That was a little bit of my 2 cents! That'll be all !

Oh no, Mediterranean will become a mountain range!!! I'll miss beautiful coast...oh well, we'll let the generations then worry about it.
Interesting, I thought the Atlantic is spreading and the Americas might be converging towards Asia over the Pacific.
