2040, 10 September. Europe has become the most advanced climate neutrality region in the world. Cities have completely abandoned fossil fuels, and each building has its own energy production system based on solar, wind and kinetic energy.

Evelina, now an experienced scientist, works in a global climate innovation lab that develops AI-powered air purification mechanisms. The streets are green, overflowing with vertical gardens, and the vehicles - without any pollution. Waste of water and food has become a thing of the past, as bioengineering has developed the most effective processing methods.

Society has also changed - the working week has been reduced to four days, as robotisation and AI have allowed people more time for creativity and personal development. The education system has introduced holistic teaching, where everyone can learn at their own pace, and virtual universities connect people from all over the world.

Evelina looks at the centre of Vilnius, where people communicate in the squares, musicians play, and technology serves not as a separation, but as a tool of unity. "This is what the future should have been like," she thinks, as she watches the sun set over the green horizons of the city.

I imagine that we are all very busy freeing nature from all the concrete. We are happy because there is finally security and peace all over the world. The bad people are gone and we can enjoy the good air and nature in all its splendor. We will cook and eat together, nobody is envious of anyone else. Everyone is happy with what they have, because they have everything they need to live. The waters are no longer polluted and no one is cruel to animals or uses them as test subjects. We all have only one faith and only one God, to whom we are grateful for everything he gives us every day. We are getting healthier and fitter every day and we can travel the world without money and see and experience everything that we previously only knew from books or movies. We will be welcome everywhere and get along with everyone. There will be no more stress or entrepreneurs who want to get richer and richer. Because no money in the world can buy life.

Between now and 2050 my life could be transformed in extraordinary ways. I imagine reaching personal and professional milestones that seem far away today. I might change careers, following a passion I have always kept hidden, or perhaps start a project that inspires others. My relationships will grow and change: new friendships, deep loves, perhaps a family that will enrich my days. Travel may take me to faraway places, opening me to different cultures and perspectives. Revolutionary technologies will affect my daily life, simplifying current challenges and offering me unimaginable opportunities. I know there will be obstacles, but every difficulty will make me stronger and wiser. Looking back in 2050, I may smile, acknowledging how much I have grown and how the path, with all its unexpected turns, has made my life unique and extraordinary.

Bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen
Wie sieht das gesellschaftliche Leben in 2040 aus? Ich plädiere für ein bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen für jede Bürgerin und jeden Bürger von Geburt bis Tod. Wenn jeder 1.000 € bekommen würde, dann hätte eine Familie mit 2 Kinder, gesamt 4 Personen, ausreichend Geld für einen angenehmen Lebensunterhalt. Halbtagsbeschäftigungen und Hobbys in der freien Zeit haben genügend Raum. Finanzieren kann man das bedingungslose Grundeinkommen durch Wegfall von Zuwendungen wie Wohngeld, Kindergeld, Unterstützungen aller Art. Es gibt dann sicher weniger Krankenstand, Zeit für Weiterbildung, Zeit mit den Kindern, Zeit für Sport und Hobbies und bestimmt weniger Neid unter den BürgerInnen.

Povratak u prošlosr
Budućnost kakvu ja želim u 2040 je da bude zapravo naša prošlost. Naime, u današnje vrijeme svi smo okruženi tehnologijom, a manje društvenim aspektom. Moja bidućnost predstavlja povratak čovjeka u prirodu, čovjeka koji je pravo društveno biće,ulice pune mladih kojima je društvo i država omogućila da kroz različite projekte sudjeluju u društvenom radu i razvijaju svoju kreativnost. Društco koje će učiti najmlađe pravim vrijednostima i gdje će roditeljski odgoj biti takav da će djecu naučiti koje su prave vrijednosti
