Michio K**u (Theoretical physicist) predicts that by the year 2,100 we will transition from a type 0 to a type 1 civilisation. Type 1 civilisations are planetary, capable of harnessing all of Earth's energy - we'd basically have control over the entire Earth
Obviously, this is just a prediction but it's interesting nonetheless. I love reading/watching stuff like this
Whether or not we achieve type 1 solely depends on us.. will we destroy ourselves before then? Or will we destroy ourselves under this newly-found "power"?
If we ever get lucky enough to reach type 1, and attain "type 2" status, we'd become immortal as nothing known to science can wipe out a type 2 civilisation - we'd never reach this status though. We'd be long gone by then most likely.
Good stuff

Well, theoretically it does get higher than Type II on the Kardashev scale. It can go up to Type III but in theory it could go up to V and even higher than that even though anything higher than V is something that the human brain most likely couldn't comprehend because V has to do with the multiverse (which is still a theory) and such.
The highest that I could potentially see is IV but that is extracting energy from all possible galaxies inside our universe. But anything past Type II is very far fetched and if humanity does reach this point, we're talking thousands and thousands of years.
