Inside the first self-sustainable city on Mars - by ABIBOO studio
Construction of the city of Nüwa could start in 2054 and will see 250,000 people live inside the rock of a steep cliff. Freeze my body, melt me in 80 years, and send me to Mars. Architecture studio ABIBOO has revealed its plans to create the first self-sustainable city on the Red Planet, which is set to be ready for residents in 2100. The city will be called Nüwa and will be located at Tempe Mensa on one of the Martian cliffs. Its position inside a rock on the steep cliff will protect its residents from radiation and meteorites (cool!) while still giving them

#OurFutures stories by EU citizens
Education in the basis of everything
I think we should improve a lot in education. There are a lot of important aspects in other fields, but education is an important thing for me. In the future educations should be equal, free and public for everyone. Kids from different backgrounds should have the same opportunities in terms of subjects, technology and languages. The educators would have to fight for non-bullying, equality and non-gender discrimination.
Democratic and educated socialism
I truly believe that the only option for avoiding a dystopic and apocalyptic future is the adoption of socialism. Democratic socialism where the power is (this time for real) for the people, people who are educated and care about themselves and the others around. Definetely inequality should go down A LOT. With this, we would for sure have the ability to tackle the challenges the world faces today: climate change, gender, digital transformation, and others that are not spoken about because it would be too much for capitalism to take.
Parents and Their Children's Education
First of all, people who want to get married in the future should be checked on issues such as health, psychology, and financial conditions. Then, it should be checked whether these people will be able to take good care of the child they will bring into the world and raise him as a good and beneficial person in the future. I know this is hard to do, but when we look back now, parents are getting married without any control. Some have blood incompatibilities; some have hereditary diseases. This also affects the naturally born child. In addition, some of them never, ever care about giving birth to a child, do not teach him ethical rules, do not teach him what is right and what is wrong. As a result of all this, children, thieves, and bad-tempered people who harm people are raised. If these are controlled and done, better people will grow in the future. The evils in the world will lessen a little. I believe that everything ends with the parent raising the child.
