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.

Ukraine's war and Trump's government have awakened the Europeans. Ukraine was forced to make peace, NATO was prevented by the US, and it was admitted to the EC. The EC has set up a joint army, some of which is based in Ukraine. The bureaucracy has been radically simplified, applications must be completed after 6 months at the latest. Britain is back in the EC. Council of Europe decisions need 60 percent approval. The blockade of individual states no longer exists.

It would be nice if in 2040 viruses such as HIV and annoying pestilences such as cancer were to be considered eradicated. It would be nice if you could already determine at birth whether the child has serious diseases to expect, which you can then immediately eradicate. It would be nice if inflation could be reduced to a minimum. It would be nice if religions no longer matter. Because there is religion. Wars that can be prevented.

The Eu will dissilve. USA, Russia and China come to maybe not ideal, but still mutuallí acceteble agreement where Euope will have no choice at all except to adjust to the new World order. They will have to nomalise their reletionship with everyone. All those who won't comply, will be exiles, as simple as that. No Brussels dictate any more. National goverments will prevail. No LGBT, only conservative approach.

International world
Ideally, I like to think of a future in 2040 for example, that is even more international that the world we live in today. In fact, I consider that nowadays, when compared to the previous years and the generation of my parents and grandparents, our reality is way more international and I've lived it myself. But I like to believe that in the future it will be even more easy to travel and explore other countries and share international experiences worldwide. However, I'm afraid that these expectations I have in mind for the future might be stopped by wars and international conflicts related to politics.
