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.

It's hard to predict what the future might be like in today's world, but I hope that thanks to science, technology, business and charismatic and intelligent heads of state, European and American states will prosper, recovering from the 2022-2027 political strife, military conflicts, armaments and tensions over the threat of attack. I believe that countries will live in the "golden age" of scientific progress and economics.

Nameti države
Bolja budućnost za mene nisi financijsku neovisnost. Privatni posao, odgovaram za svoje uspjehe i greške, ne podliježem autoritetu, brinem za svoju obitelj i opskrbljujem ju sa svim potrebnim stvarima. Kako bi to sve bilo izvedivo treba premostiti sve poreze,prireze i ostale namete koje država stavlja na teret malim poduzetnicima,a to je isključivo na njima da smanje. Njihovi nameti su svakim danom sve nedostižniji i sve veći.

Zmiany w przyszłości.
I can't imagine what will happen in a dozen or so years and whether I will live to see them at all. I am sure that artificial intelligence will dominate, I am afraid that people will be left without a job. The next thing is cars - there are more and more of them, there is no place to park, there are traffic jams, you can't get there on time. I probably imagine roads above or around the blocks - somewhere I saw a similar photo, where something similar already works.

Sollievo, tranquillità, vita.
In 2040 I will be 78 years old, I think I will appreciate a quiet reality.I would like the city to be full of green areas, with many trees, no cars, but many quiet, small but safe means of transport. I do not have many other desires, I would like my body to age without pain as well as my mind.
