A message for the New EUrope

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I believe in an Europe of Values. A cradle of tolerance, development and education. A place where borders, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, religion and color are just valid opportunities of understanding the human nature and strengthening the motto that defines and unites a continent - "Unity in diversity"!
For the young generation the problems of the 20th century are no longer important, or play a little role in their day-to-day activities, constantly forgetting that atrocities like the Armenian Genocide or the Holocaust happened when our grandparents were our age. Unfortunately, the history rhythms and we are facing an illegal and unprovoked war at our Eastern border, that causes hate, fear and the death of hundreds of innocent Ukrainians and leaving a world without words.
I hope that we, the younger sons of Europe, will raise our voice for the causes of liberty, democracy and peace whenever and wherever the opportunity arises!
Stronger together !

"We did not come to fear the future. We came here to shape it!" - Barack Obama;

I envision a future where labor is not exploitative, where there is a minimum wage requirement, and workers are truly protected and not treated as mere numbers. People who at the end of their workday still have the strength and hope to go and live their lives outside. I imagine women not being refused contract renewals because they are pregnant or may be pregnant in the future. I imagine a world where people with disabilities are truly protected, backed by society, and where health care is free without having biblical wait times.

It's 2040, and aviation is finally reserved for business trips for which video conferencing contacts are insufficient. For private travel, each family can fly once every 4 years. Cruise ships have been banned since 2035. A universal income has been introduced, funded by corporate profits: anything in excess of 2% of ÇA in profits is redistributed. Executive salaries are limited to €15,000 and dividends to the same amount.

Arbeit in der Zukunft
In this future, we all have a four-day week or less. For the same salary and with the same efficiency, we only work three or four days, half of them in the office and half in the home office. We have more time for volunteering, raising children, continuing education, political engagement or just hobbies and sports.

I hope that by 2040 new forms of energy supply will have taken hold. That nuclear fusion reactors in the Netherlands will ensure that there is power in abundance, bringing the prices of energy down considerably. As a result, the prices of electric cars, appliances and household use will also hopefully go down and technology can make a big step forward. Smart homes are everywhere and there are hardly any CO2 emissions.
