A day in 2040

A day in 2040 starts as usual. Breakfast and a shower with an electric heater. The trip to work in the capital is done by train, during which you can glance around and see hydrogen-powered vehicles becoming more common. Maglev technology is starting to take off and is said to be the next great revolution in transport, as it reduces the need for new rubber tires and reduces the friction in vehicles. You can go from one end of the country to the other by train in 30% less time than in 2025. AI has helped revolutionise all industries and made them more efficient, though at the cost of millions of jobs. Most cancer types can be treated and education levels are the highest ever. Religion is becoming less important in developed countries, but geopolitical tensions are at their highest since the Cold War.
Uncertainty is the key word at this time.

I was woken up by a personal alarm clock with fresh coffee and baked bread. After a sonic bath, I wore nano-fiber clothes that measured my vital signs for an electronic doctor. A flying taxi and today's digital newspaper were waiting for me at the entrance. In the office, the robot secretary sorted the mail. She immediately started dictating letters and sending them to certain addresses that I chose.

La simplicité et le respect en 2040
In 2040, life is peaceful in Europe, everyone smiles, there is no aggression in any country. If there are problems between people, there will be people who will be responsible for resolving problems amicably, and everything will be simple. There will be freedom of expression, respect for everyone's ideas.

I wish by then there would be more nature. That it is forbidden to lay front gardens in stones, that people who have a house and garden should provide more greenery. That a forest, a park is within walking or cycling distance. That the car is more banded from the cities, but can still get a place on the outskirts of the city. That there are so free buses or cheap public transport that runs to the city. So that people also seek more connection with nature, go for a walk and only have the benefits of nature.
