A future where we work less, consume less and pollute less - Everything has one underlying crisis: the climate crisis

I hope that the future has changed the consumption pattern of today's generation. This will result in less demand for consumer goods, fewer working hours for the individual worker, and thus more time for family, friends and hobbies. At the same time, it will result in less pollution of our planet.

I know that this also means a rebellion with the current division of labor and industry. Instead, I hope that the future will reward the social sector and social work better and also recognize all the work that takes place in the home - which is often done by women.

I hope that the future dares to act on the many danger signals that stand as flashpoints around the world. Whether it is wars, discrimination, injustice, undignified working conditions or psychological problems of young and old people. Everything has one underlying crisis: the climate crisis. It must be acted upon based on various measures, where the world's decision-makers must dare to act. I hope that will have happened in 2040.

It would be just very nice if in the near future people could live together without selfishness and preconceptions.This would make it impossible to wage war because if what is mine is also yours there is no need to kill each other for more. There would also be no need to always focus on appearance because seeing the good in everyone would make sure that no one judged others, and conversely, no one would need to build walls to defend themselves from the malevolent gaze of others.

Electric vehicles have been abandoned. There are no more child laborers on the sites where the materials needed to make batteries are extracted. There's no more toxic waste from the end-of-life of these batteries. We're back to thermal engines, but using a vegetable fuel, to hydrogen engines, and to atomic fragmentation engines. As the earth revolves around the sun on an oval circuit, it is now on a point less close to the star, and climate change is less obvious. But fears of change have had some interesting effects. We're more attentive to environmental issues
