A future based on the past (Un futuro basato sul passato)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, in 18 I would like the world to be completely different, but I would particularly like to see machines or means of road transport being abolished forever in the future. Indeed, my future is also about the past, because I would like to live in a way in which animals are ‘used’, but to use in a positive sense, in my view the animal in general and in the world was born not only as a companion to humans but also to help them. Indeed, I would like to live in a world where machines are replaced by, for example, coaches with horses or elephants or camels depending on the place in the world in which you are located. However, this does not mean that all means of transport should be abolished, because aircraft or trains or vessels cannot be replaced by animals, including for their welfare. So in the future I would like to “use” animals, but always in their respect, to change the world: both in the climate field, because this would lead to a reduction in pollution and thus help and stop climate change and in the cultural field, because I believe that using all the means that we can have to survive, without always inventing something new, can help people to organise themselves and open up their mind-set.

For almost three years, I have been one of the first colonists to live on Mars. After 2025, planet Earth will suffer unprecedented ecological disasters, not helped by worsening overpopulation. In 2035, the Earth's population will have exceeded 12 billion, so some people will have had to leave in search of new habitable worlds. The journey to Mars took six months and was extremely physically and mentally demanding. Perhaps we colonists can avoid all the mistakes humanity made on Earth. Maybe Mars will one day become a new Earth where humanity can start again.

It's 2040, after all the bad elections, the people have finally understood that they can't let the far right come to power. A united Europe has put pressure on Russia and the US, so that the people of these countries have stopped believing the populists and are electing democratic leaders. The European Union's army guards order, and more and more countries want to join the union to benefit from the protection its army provides. Wise management of resources has allowed the development of science, whose achievements allow mitigation of climate change and improved communications. The sanctions imposed on pharmaceutical companies are slowly changing the face of the companies, they are no longer profit-driven and the approach to the health of people and society is key.

Rêve toujours !!!!
Il n'y a plus de pauvres, tout le monde vit confortablement et mange à sa faim, le réchauffement climatique n'est plus qu'un mauvais souvenir, il n'y a plus de guerres ni de conflits. Toutes les diversités sont acceptées. Il n'y a plus d'inégalités

We are in the year 2045. after much turbulence, the governments of the nations have decided on peaceful cooperation based on the common good. financial resources are now used to build and maintain a modest and sustainable lifestyle that enables all people to live a dignified and meaningful life. military interventions to maintain power and control resources are a thing of the past. scientific research has developed systems of a regional circular economy that has recognized biodiversity as essential to life. ethics and integrity of character are the prerequisites for political office and are cultivated in interpersonal interactions. socially destructive technologies have been replaced by constructive methods that are conducive to human coexistence. life is valued more than profit. money serves as a means of payment for the real economy instead of a rampant capital market.
