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.

A wonderful world
I would like a world where origins and skin colour are no longer problems. Where everyone can achieve great studies and do whatever job they would like to do. A world where children and women feel safe. Where religion is no longer a cause of war. A world where people no longer fight for authority, nor glory. A world where we are all aware of the environmental situation.

Finalmente un Europa unita
As we talk nowadays about the problems in Europe,the lack of unity common strategies and diminishing importance in the world,I hope that in 2040 we will finally find a union,where there are no longer individual states,but we will have a continent modeled after the United States,where we will have a single parliament,and we will all vote together to elect it.We will all have the same laws,fewer politicians,and a more streamlined and efficient system,where the best politicians from each country can run for office. In this way,we will be able to compete with world powers and emerging powers. Today it seems difficult to achieve,but I believe it is the only way we can look to the future with hope. Of course,I hope that this will happen long before 2040,and that in those years we will remember the difficulties of today,which made us unite and complete the European project.
