A real trans-European transport network (Un vrai réseau transeuropéen de transport)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, the temperature of our planet continues to rise. Thanks to the environmental policies of the European Union, our transport system has evolved and many developments have taken place, including the development of electric and low-energy vehicles.
In a society where the individual needs to travel, to travel, to work or simply to see family members, the trans-European transport network needs to evolve.
Thanks to the introduction of the Interrail pass, many young people can break down the European Union to a lesser extent. This must extend to the whole population. Today, air transport is cheaper than rail and much more polluting in the European Union, but it is possible to travel by train between countries. Many people do not make this choice because the train offers longer journeys with exorbitant fares. My proposal focuses on this issue. In 2040, the trans-European transport network will offer many high-speed lines linking the largest cities in Europe. These high-speed lines on the TGV modele in France will offer a European low cost package (such as that for regional trains in Germany with the national pass at EUR 9). In order to develop mobility geared to public transport such as rail, the 2040 European trains will offer real services (comfortable chair, couchette, workspace, rest space, quiet space, buvette).

I imagine a future free of artificial intelligence and the media, a world in which people will come back to reason with their own heads without being influenced by terrible ideologies. A simple world that returns to look at reality in its essence and renounces relativism and nihilism. In the future that I imagine children will return to their innocence and thanks to this future generations will be able to relive a new golden age of culture and morality

I would like to see an improvement in the work/life balance for everyone. This would mean a 4 day week on full pay, flexible working hours, the option to work fully remotely, and the popularisation of unions and workers rights.

We are more aware of the impact on the environment around us and are also much better at significantly reducing that impact or even barely being present. This has also made our lives much better. In addition, there are financial solutions such as basic income so that everyone can have a certain degree of good and healthy life without the stress of money shortage.

Europe has restored its values built over the centuries. It is true and true. Everyone is in their place and doing their job in good faith, from a simple doer to the highest representatives of power. There is mutual respect between countries, there is cooperation. Hatred is over, there are no military conflicts anywhere. Nature is spared without harm to humans. Children and the elderly are loved and cared for. Families with children are supported, provided with accommodation, transport, free education. Culture and art are based on values and virtue. The price of event tickets is available to everyone. People's rights are ensured and respected.
