As far as health is concerned, I can imagine major advances: drugs will no longer have the place they have today, and we'll be able to treat illness with sounds, vibrations or colors.
We'll certainly be able to age longer and in better shape than we do today.
The infinitely small (cells) that constrain us will be better understood and apprehended. Money in general will no longer have the same impact on people's consciences as it does today, and will be seen as a tool for advancement, not a substitute for, or a means of dominating others.
The basic choice will always be a product that respects the environment and the individual, at a price that is not exaggerated. Empathy, and all other positive human feelings, will be valued during school education, there will no longer be anyone left behind, the choice of professions will be made progressively from kindergarten so that children can change if it doesn't suit them.
Free energy (electro-magnetic) will be widespread, we'll travel further and faster, interstellar travel will be frequent, and tourist trips to near-earth neighborhoods will be a daily occurrence. Expeditions further afield will be decided on a piecemeal basis, taking into account the risks to civilization, disease, invasion, etc...
Human beings will no longer work as hard as they do today, robotics and AI will replace us in thankless tasks. Our activities will be motivated by passion and the pleasure of doing an activity, which means that progress will go much faster, with no more social, physical or international barriers.
A universal wage will be institutionalized across the planet, with very little difference between the lowest and highest levels.
Trade exchanges with other non-aggressive exogenous civilizations will be set up, exchanging technology, commodities and basic materials.

le futur vert
In 2040, greenery is everywhere. Nature has returned to our cities, thanks to our ecological policies. The far right will no longer be present, and everyone will care about the climate. In fact, we've come a long way in that respect, because everyone is now careful about what they consume and what they do. We consume in short circuits and organically. People care about others, and not as they used to with the extreme individualism that almost tore us all apart. Minorities also have more rights, and everyone is accepted! Women are no longer invisible in our previously patriarchal society. Citizens and scientists have been able to make their voices heard, and politicians have had no choice but to follow their advice in their projects.

Įgalinantis lygiateisiškumas
I envision a free society that respects all people, where discrimination no longer exists, where LGBTQ+ people no longer feel fear, and where they are free to travel with their children, to live and create. I envision a society where there is no room for inequality, where sexist jokes are taken as seriously as any other attack, where women truly have equal opportunities. Where politicians and public figures show respect for people, and where educational institutions no longer contain topics that are uncomfortable to talk about. Across Europe, wherever they live, whatever their gender, race, religion, health, gender identity or sexual orientation, whatever their background, they feel safe, dignified and respected. Imagine how that respect for each other allows people to create, work, dream and achieve their dreams freely - with economic prosperity, a willingness to share and help each other, people's trust in government, and security - because every citizen believes and wants to defend, even if it means by force of arms, his or her country.

En värld av solidaritet och omtanke.
A future characterized by solidarity and caring, where the capitalist consumer society has been partially replaced by a society where caring for each other is a priority. A utopia to change society before 2040 but hopefully we can take some steps in the right direction. A society where both rich and poor have access to good healthcare and education. Taking care of each other and this planet gets more focus than fighting over land.

Wereldtentoonstelling 2040
Feb 24, 2040, the World Expo will kick off in Brussels, the heart of Europe. The past 15 years have seen an economic upheaval thanks in part to good, innovative and sustainable EU policies. The EU now has the largest economy in the world, no longer the U.S. Policies in the later 1920s in the U.S. caused a lot of big companies to go belly up. European companies empowered by EU policies grew as a result and became market leaders in many sectors. With that, this World's Fair as has never been seen before! Among others: the first portable quantum computer on the go, a nuclear fusion reactor small and powerful enough to power a city, autonomous air cabs running on hydrogen, plastic-eating bacteria and much more!
