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.

Tillsammans bryr vi oss
In the future, humanity has arrived at a time when we realize that we need each other. No one is anyone's enemy, no one is left alone, everyone is needed because there are tasks for everyone big or small. We tell each other stories and hang out. The time in front of all screens has been reduced.

The war in Ukraine is over. Russia is divided into 10-15 countries. Europe has a common armed force, high-tech, mobile. The EU is actively competing with the US and China in cutting-edge technologies, the economy has stagnated. Islam in Europe is banned and hopefully the Arabs in the Middle East are beginning to give up Islam. A-Europe has achieved R-Europe in economic development. Migrants who are not ready to accept Western culture, everyday life, laws should go to their countries of birth or where they are welcomed. AI intelligence and technological developments allow people to work less physically and devote more time to their development, creation, science, family, travel.

Dzień Aleksandry
The sun slowly rose over Warsaw in 2042, and Aleksandra woke up in her intelligent apartment. The gentle light imitating the sunrise and the smell of freshly brewed coffee from the automatic coffee machine made her start the day with a smile. Her work as a coordinator of urban vertical gardens gave her a lot of satisfaction. Thanks to modern technologies, buildings across Europe have turned into green spaces, producing oxygen and food. The cities were full of trees and parks, and autonomous transport made the air clean and the streets quiet. Aleksandra got into a light, electric city vehicle that operated in a sharing system. On the way, she read the news: European Union countries have achieved zero carbon emissions and new fusion technology has provided a cheap and clean source of energy. After work, she met her friends at a local cafe, where 3D printed plant-based snacks tasted like the best dishes from years ago. They talked about a future that was finally optimistic – Europe succeeded in creating a sustainable, innovative and happy society.

I would like all people to be equal and get along with their work and that there would be enough work for everyone who wants to. Warfare should stop all over the world and people should focus on a happy and balanced life, paying more attention to the environment and climate, as well as to animals and plants. People should think more positively.
