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.

Zukunft
I would like to see a Europe without wars and despots. And less garbage and dirt on the streets. If there are no more wars anywhere, everyone can stay in their own country (except for vacation purposes) Weapons (including knives) should be banned. It should be possible to treat illnesses in clinics - including cancer. Affordable housing for all. Inflation would be abolished

La société en 2040
Society in 2040 is more tolerant, with individuals less individualistic, but with a real awareness of the importance of "forming society", of being a community of solidarity, responsible for its future and its environment. Man has realized that he can be the key to his own salvation. Individuals are now more involved on a daily basis in helping others, preserving the environment and sharing wealth. Individual aspirations have given way to a collective, voluntary dynamic. Everyone is involved at his or her own pace, providing help, a gesture or time for an environmental or social cause. The economy is no longer based solely on personal enrichment, but values work and investment.

Das Jahr 2040
The year is 2040 and we live in a time when people have understood that war is not a solution. After the USA and China have proven to the world that they have power, peace reigns. Unfortunately, people can no longer live everywhere without problems due to weather disasters. There are more and more periods of heat and therefore drought. The world is constantly changing.
