60% for nature

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

60% of our reserved for nature, an official law accepted in 2030, when climate change was at its worst. And 40% for 'human' use.

Humans used to claim all land, for housing, roads, agriculture, while leaving little pieces to create some 'green'.....We where fighting for land, everybody wanted their piece. Understandably, as this was the way we looked at living and owning stuff. This happily changed. We had to, because in 2028 climate change was at its worst. We started to realise that we are not 'supreme' as a spieces, but part of the beautiful natural world that is around us.

It was quite a struggle to pass this initiative, but as Bhutan, a little country in the Himalaya area, had already successfully integrated such an initiative in the early 20ths, we knew it was possible. And saw the results of more connected and happy people.

la vrai vie
I hope that politics will not interfere in the lives of individual citizens and affect their well-being by imposing rules that don't take reality into account. Living together must be nourished by proximity, far from breathless social networks with purely mercantile aims.

Die traurige Wahrheit über Prioritäten der Menschen
I wish that politicians were more responsive to people. Unfortunately, that won't be the case. People will most likely be restricted in their values. The media will influence everyone and dictate everyone's opinion. The school system in Germany will get worse and worse and there will be more and more shortages of specialist staff. The reason for this is that they want to make people more emotional. And that only works with little knowledge and fear. And unfortunately this will continue until wealth takes precedence over human lives

Desideri di una nonna
Today is January 1, 2040, there are no more wars in the world and all peoples live in peace. Borders have been eliminated in Europe, and the inhabitants cooperate on joint projects to improve the environment around them. Climate change has suspended its evolution, and the tragic episodes that characterized previous years have disappeared .

90 årig.
I live in collective housing provided by the state for its elderly and disabled inhabitants. My family lives nearby - and when I'm with my great-grandchildren, I talk about the troubling times I experienced in the hours and twenties before Europe put a lid on the US, Russia and China's tampering with world peace and the climate. When I go to other places I can't get to in my electric wheelchair, I can easily travel by public transportation that works throughout Europe. Air travel is almost totally abolished and the few airplanes that exist are powered by non-polluting and co2 consuming means. My husband is also still alive and well.
