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
Bezpečnější svět
I would like to see a future where there is a safe public space, where there are no lunatics with knives on the streets killing innocent people. I wish that drug addicts and aggressors would be punished severely for their actions and hurting their victims and that our laws would not protect criminals and juveniles. Let criminal liability be reduced and let there be harsh laws and punishments for criminals of violent crimes. Let there be respect, deference and warmth among the people.
Katastrofa
The health and financial situation, the atomic bomb will trap and destroy the whole world and the people who survive will have to fight for food and water.There will be no fossil fuels and we will have to kill more and more people for them. Children will not be born because there is no point. There will be a radioactive mutant that will feed on humans. They are difficult to fight, but the world population will have to rebuild the atomic circle.
Ekologické, rýchle
Mobility in Europe in 2040 will be significantly more sustainable, smarter and more efficient. Electric vehicles will replace combustion engines, while hydrogen technologies will dominate freight and public transport. High-speed trains and hyperloops will replace short flights between cities, significantly reducing travel times and emissions, while autonomous vehicles and intelligent transport systems will make movement smoother in cities and on motorways. Traffic lights, car parks and public transport will be linked to digital infrastructure, ensuring efficient real-time traffic management. Shared mobility, such as autonomous taxis and electric scooters, will reduce the number of private cars.Overall, transport will be greener, faster and tailored to the needs of citizens. Smart cities will support the shift to sustainable forms of transport and improve quality of life across Europe.
Ønske fremtid
I wish there was peace in the world in 2040 and that all countries would live with the differences we have without it being problematic. Deals should be made through good negotiations that benefit all parties. Our houses should be heated with wind energy, solar energy or hydrogen. We should have become so smart that we had stopped depleting the earth. Maybe even become vegetarians. Everyone would transport themselves on small electric cars that could fly a little above the ground.
Mirová budoucnost
In the year 2040, humanity has come a long way in the history of mankind.People all over have rebelled against authoritarian regimes, changed the world system by their protests against constant wars.Guns have been laid down and peace has reigned over the entire earth. The use of conventional money ceased and poverty disappeared.Insucgnu people had just enough of everything, neither too much nor too little, to live a peaceful comfortable life
Tikai sapnis..
I would like to be able to babysit my grandchildren, whom I hope to welcome. I would like my daughter to continue to work in a secure job, so that she does not have to slave as she does now, so that she can pay for an apartment and do what she wants to do instead of what she is forced to do. To keep everyone close to her healthy, not to poison people with food, medicines with high prices and all kinds of poisons in the air... So that there is no voluntary compulsory vaccination for the younger generation. So that a pensioner can at least afford to feed his cat... So that animals are not sickened, so that all animals have a home, so that there is no cruelty to animals and people. For people to acknowledge God.
Budúcnosť pre ďalšie generácie
The year is 2040 and people are taking a more sustainable approach to shopping. Charges have been introduced for the use of single-use plastic packaging, so people are using reusable bags to buy fruit or vegetables and also for baked goods. They carry large bags made of recyclable material for big purchases.
