In the year 2040 nobody drives combustion cars anymore. Public transport has improved a lot in recent years, now all vehicles are electric and eco-sustainable, there are many connections between cities and countries and a great time availability. Nobody has a private car because it is not practical, when in 5 minutes you have available a transport that takes you to your destination quickly, efficiently and for free! Renewable energies have become the standard. Thanks to this and other changes, climate change has been slowed down. Companies have substantially reduced their emissions of harmful gases, including CO2, and have stopped using non-renewable packaging in their products. Thousands of species have been saved worldwide, especially marine species, and the seas have been repopulated. In the year 2040, society's main concern is not its future, but what it is going to do on the weekend with all its free time, since it now only works from Monday to Thursday. What I have described is not a possible future right now, but it could be if politicians take the right measures, it just needs the will to change. The future of Europe is the future of all of us, it is the future of the planet.

A balance between freedom and security. More horizontal links.
Europe's future is secure, with convenient transport links to any point in the union. Low taxes, allowing entrepreneurship to develop. Improved public services allowing most actions to be done electronically, like in Estonia. Fewer regulatory restrictions (environmental, AI, etc.). Compulsory higher education for all citizens. More nuclear power plants and compact safe reactors. Less bureaucracy, more horizonal links and public self-regulation on the ground.

I imagine that I am in Pula, alive and healthy and my family is healthy. As I currently have health problems, I imagine and wish that quality health protection is available to people at all times that it is free and of good quality. For everyone. I imagine that I live in a society where no disease is stigmatized and that society prioritises the elderly, the sick and the disabled. I imagine that as humans we have overcome greed, egoism and care for each other. And again that we have bedpmatous health, everyone has free medication, free dental services and that then mental hygiene will be a priority. Namely, everyone can do without shame and fear to go regularly to the psychologist for discussion and advice. Every nation has priority for the health of its inhabitants , both physically and mentally. For what kind of nation and civilization are we if the health service is not available to everyone and not to profit from someone's illness and powerlessness. Healthy people are the basis for a healthy society.

Sociālā afvērtība - brīvības bira
Freedom in social networks will allow to follow people's actions, promote responsibility both privately and for officials. We will also have acquired personal responsibility for action not only in reality, but also in social networks, and thus we will be able to communicate productively and interestingly. We will not seek hatred in disputes, but grains of understanding. We will have calmed down the race for material benefits - we will live more slowly, buy less but better quality items. We will be able to see within ourselves and around us the spark of humanity.

on est vraiment sur la mauvaise pente
For me 2050 will have to take up the most important points of the past, a slower life, less technology, less social control, more freedom, a true democracy and not that of today where those who have the most power have never been chosen by the people, a sovereign Belgium that can make its own choices while working with its neighbours, including our Russian friends. More contact between people in cafes and resting, in the cinema, and less life via screen. And in our plate especially keep the quality of our local craftsmen and not the m*** indstrielle transcheese. Let us also return to traditional values and let the woke of the left find themselves in their real place ... in the asylum because they are dangerous And especially not touch my real steack raised with grass by farmers who love their craft. You will have understood ... the very opposite of the desires of the globalists of the EU:-)
