A greener, more peaceful, more modern alliance between the states of Europe!

My European vision is a greener, more peaceful Europe. Explained in more detail, where peace is restored on the continent and the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is managed to be smoothed out diplomatically. Europe's economy is currently going through unprecedented difficulties. In my opinion, further sanctions are not an option. The diplomatic settlement of the conflict must be urgently resolved, for which both parties must create the necessary conditions. First of all, this should be sacrificed and not for further sanctions, as a result of which peace will be restored by 2040 and the economy will start to pick up. By 2040, the climate crisis will cause serious problems, which will become humanity's number one problem. In order to prevent this, we must act as soon as possible, which can only be brought about by green investments and because of which we have to reduce our comfort for a while in order to have a better future. Epidemiological measures will end for good by 2040 and Covid-19 will become a simple public disease, which will no longer pose a huge threat. However, in order to avoid further epidemics, certain restrictions may remain in place, such as the use of masks in hospitals and various public health institutions. Digitization will conquer such a huge space that it must be supported. However, we must be careful not to overdo it and in the end end up worse off with such investments, for example with unreasonably high prices, possible risks due to Internet crime. Immigration must be moderated and people must not be allowed in without checks. The problem must be solved locally and the Union must focus on this in the future in order to remain in a peaceful and calm environment. The only viable future for the European Union is to remain an economic alliance between nation states. In addition to the common European army, it can also be a military and law enforcement alliance. However, the independence of nation-states must not be lost. Everyone has their own culture and these should not be lost. According to everyone's own laws and wills, they must be independent and sovereign member states within the union. This is my Europe for 2040 in a nutshell!

Regenerace přírody
The planet would recover through massive ecosystem restoration projects. Deforested areas would be reforested, the oceans would be cleaned of plastic waste and biodiversity would increase by protecting endangered species. Cities would be full of greenery - vertical gardens on buildings, parks on every corner and urban farms would be a way of life.

Oteplování
It's 2040, and the country's average temperatures have risen, leading to more frequent summer heat waves and warmer winters. Droughts have become more frequent, causing problems for agriculture, especially grain and vegetable production. Farmers had to adapt their cultivation methods and introduce more efficient irrigation methods. Floods have also become more frequent due to the rapid melting of snow in the mountains. On the positive side, however, there has been a great development of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, and most cities have become greener.

Gerechtigkeit und Transparenz
This better future could well be one in which many things are handled more fairly. Those who do not work are not entitled to support from the community. With every year of productive work, i.e. work in any form as we know it, not only does the entitlement to support increase in the event of unemployment, but also the entitlement to maintenance when the working age is reached. Refugees also only receive maintenance if they work and contribute to the GNP of the respective state. There is only ever one citizenship and not several. Referendums, as in Switzerland, are part of everyday life. The influence of citizens or active political groups has more effect and impact on the development of the state. Politicians, like any other employee, can be held accountable for their actions and decisions. Cars or gen. Vehicles are allowed to drive at a defined maximum speed on all EU highways, but this is also rigorously monitored. Waste should be paid for according to quantity - polluter pays principle. Ships, whether new or old, should only be allowed to sail emission-free or with filters. The same applies to airplanes. Capital gains tax of at least 35% per year is due from ownership or capital of 5 million euros. More transparency for people in public office with regard to income, sideline income, other posts, etc. A strict cap also applies here. Politicians who govern a nation must have a solid education in economics or law. School dropouts or unskilled workers are not allowed to hold political office. Preservation of existing nature. Radical reforestation of fallow land. Stop building wind turbines and use the existing ones, as many of them are not yet connected to the grid. Photovoltaic surfaces over built-up areas, e.g. over roads, highways and wherever the ground is already sealed, or on all kinds of surfaces. Fields and meadows must remain free and usable for agriculture.

Lepší zítřky
I envision more electric cars, technology on every corner, much more efficient schools for our children. I also hope there will be less war and nuclear weapons in the world. There will be more support for local agriculture in our country and stop just importing. All waste will be recycled and not just piled in landfills. There will be low inflation and people will be able to afford all sorts of things and not live paycheck to paycheck.
