In 2040 I will be 87 years old and I don't know if I will still be in this world. Now, at almost 72, I am reasonably ill and still take little part in life together. I spend most of my time alone at home in my beautiful 3-room apartment with a balcony. I have 3 children and 6 grandchildren but the contact is not that great. 2 children live near me, but they have their work, their house and their children. There is little time for me. When I need help, it usually works out that they help. How do I see the next few years? I would like to alleviate some of the symptoms of my illness or get rid of them completely. If that is the case, I would like to fly, not that far. I've never been to a foreign country like Italy, France or even Austria. I've also got to know almost nothing of Germany. As I can't walk or stand for long periods, day trips are not for me at the moment. I would like to get to know a man again, not to move in together, but to go out and be there for each other. My last steady relationship is from 1997. I would like Germany not to be involved in a war and for our economy to flourish again so that we can maintain our social system. I would like to be that old, but who knows that about themselves.

I would like to see from up there a world with no distinctions, no more wars no more colors, no more politics, no more media, no more capitalists, no more murderers, a world where nature and man form one,where man lives happily with other beings, with the animal world, with nature, a world where suffering and sickness no longer exist because man has finally found peace and lives on love, a world that feeds on the goods of the earth, a more spiritual world where everyone ..when he feels that he has finished his cycle, can extinguish himself as and where he wishes, but for this dream we will have to wait until whole generations of ruling families become extinct, it will take a long time and a destruction of part of the earth, the rest will certainly flourish again.

At the dawn of 2040, so much has changed! Selective sorting has taken root, there's no more food wastage thanks to the cost circuit, we consume more local produce, and producers are able to make a living from their activities. We don't judge different people, we try to understand them, we're more tolerant and benevolent towards others, even if there are still a few recalcitrants.

The future will undoubtedly be marked by the development of artificial intelligence. This raises both fears and hopes. For my part, I hope it will lead to major advances in the field of medicine, enabling us to live longer, healthier lives. At the same time, it appears that progress is being made in the area of respect for animals, albeit too timidly. I sincerely hope that it will continue to evolve, and that there will be no more animal suffering. May science enable us to feed ourselves differently, why not through the development of artificial meat. It would be wonderful if scientific progress could lead us to understand the mystery of life, why we are here... Finally, may mankind be wiser and exclude war, but that's in the realm of utopia, alas.

For me, there will be no more wars. People will have had enough of suffering, of working long and hard so that certain people who do nothing and squat in the country can benefit. People will have voted extreme right for several years, Europe will still be present, trade with the USA and China will still be tense, but we'll be able to get by as a united country.

wish mail it is important to me to live in peace and to secure the earth for all descendants for a peaceful and livable environment.in addition, the preservation of animal species to promote real selection.furthermore, the school must be designed in such a way that everyone can benefit from it.everyone needs the most important basics and not things that nobody needs.the same applies to the health system, where a reform is absolutely necessary so that everyone can find a family doctor and does not fall out.taxes should be used sensibly and those who squander taxes should also pay for them.the idea that money is spent on pointless things and nobody is responsible is completely different for the normal employee.mistakes can happen,but you should also stand by them and not squander other people's money without punishment.it is also very important that all those who have a leading position are also trained for it.at the moment ministers are being put from one position to another in politics who actually have no idea about it.people should live well and happily.the gap between rich and poor must change and not become even wider.the pension should also be enough for pensioners to live on.everyone should pay taxes without restriction up to a certain amount.everyone should be treated equally and that welds the people together because it conveys real justice.

2040, AI applications, combined with other technologies, will benefit almost every aspect of life, including improved healthcare, safer and more efficient transportation, personalized education, improved software for everyday tasks, and increased agricultural crop yields.

I wish respect among the people would return. People should realise that violence, arrogance, rudeness have never done any good. It's not the colour of one's skin that matters, it's what one can do. National cooperation is also important so that the people do not have to worry that someone else wants to return to the days when everything was decided by a party and a government or by a single person.

I would like to see the conflict between economy and ecology overcome by 2040. Companies will no longer have to strive for extreme profit, but will be rewarded for sustainable production. In addition, products produced in this way are subsidized by the state so that almost everyone can buy them. The neo-liberal economic ideas have finally been consigned to the dustbin and no one would think of following the capitalist ideas any more. In addition, the social systems have been harmonized so that the major gaps have been closed and no one has to work beyond the age of 65. The professional civil service has been abolished and only a few essential professions (police, fire department, judiciary) still have civil servants in the necessary positions. Private health insurance has been abolished and transferred to the statutory system so that all employees pay equally into the social security system and stability is guaranteed. Parliaments have shrunk to reasonable sizes (Bundestag 301 members, the rest staggered according to population up to a maximum of 49) and the associated bureaucracy has also shrunk. The money could be used for sensible projects to reduce legal regulations, so that digitalization could also be decisively advanced.

Hello, It's February 26, 2040, and Europe has finally unified. We are 32 independent states, but with a strong European government that can decide on certain global, environmental or conflictual issues. The United States of America has regressed economically, and is now only the 6th world power.Since the election in 2024 of Donald TRUMP (who ran his country like a business) and then the election of Elon MUSK (who thought that cars could all become airplanes, and who advocated the return of dictatorship), they have become a shadow of their former selves.With China, we have brought peace to African countries, and launched economic and agricultural programs to reduce poverty and excessive migration.

Europe will finally be a united state like the USA, with the same rules, the same wages, the same prices, true uniformity. The army will also be European, and will defend any European country under attack. Movement between countries will be fluid, but much stricter for non-European countries. There will be a truly European economy, with each country retaining its strengths, but without the competition and disparity of today. There will be a real sharing of technological and scientific knowledge. We'll be much more autonomous and therefore stronger. Together, we'll develop an ecological policy that's also more people-oriented.

I walk down a sunny street in Utrecht, where children sit on benches with their noses deep in books. Not because they have to, but because stories inspire them. In 2030, people realized that technology is great, but it shouldn't kill imagination. So there were reading squares everywhere, interactive libraries and writers telling schools how stories could change the world. Meanwhile, the walls of new homes were literally growing. We discovered how to make building materials from CO₂ from the air, combined with bio-concrete that regenerates itself. This is how we solve climate problems while building sustainable homes. In healthcare, something extraordinary has happened. Robots and AI are taking over tasks, but not at the expense of humanity. Care workers actually have more time for patients. Everyone is seen, heard and helped. And perhaps best of all: people have become milder. We have learned that working together is more rewarding than winning. A smile on the street is normal again, and granting is more important than owning. This is Europe, 2050. And it feels good.
