What I want the future to be in 2040 is not necessarily what it is likely to be... Artificial intelligence will take over a lot from humans. Let's be happy until it wakes up ( if it hasn't already ). It might be useful in medicine. The field of medicine is in dire need of change, the question is whether they are going in the right direction

Over a long period of years, the situation in the world has started to improve. It did not go quickly and smoothly. It took time, will and resistance to be as it is today. In the face of nature's great warnings to wake up and make the world a better place, we have decided to work. We have reduced the use of fossil fuels (almost sparking), limited the use of plastics, and realised how important it is to take care of waste. And, over the last 10 years, we have reduced our gas emissions, and we are stopping the earth from heating up by deforesting the forest. Nature is beginning to recover, there is less bad weather, the climate is returning to normal, and we are back to four seasons.

We’ll need to address changes coming due to climate change while making sure economy and by extension our societies also adapt in a sustainable way. We need to allow nature to heal and regrow as much as possible for the ecological chains to sustain themselves and humanity. It is going to be a difficult task as lit of these changes comes with a price and uncertainty, but education and long term thinking and decision making from those in power could make this happen. I’m not sure however that this can be done without sacrifices. I tend to think that humanity will only try to change its ways when it has no other choice as a whole, only after a lot of suffering and death. A cleansing flame of sorts. I wish this wasn’t true. But I fear it is.

In the future, I would like to see fewer hungry and poor people. I would like health care to be available to all equally, so that there is no excruciating pain. I would like us to be able to travel to whichever part of the globe we would like. So that people have a job that pays enough to live a normal life. I would like us to respect, support and vote more.
