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'm very sceptical about the future of tomorrow's world, but without being totally pessimistic, I think that the human race will take the right decisions to enable us all to live together in harmony, albeit partial, but necessary. We absolutely must limit demographics, especially on the African and Asian continents.

Fossil fuels are no longer consumed, nor are there nuclear power plants. Climate change has been solved. Wars are over, there are no more dictators like Putin or Maduro, no more madmen at the head of any country like Trump, Milei, Orban or Bolsonaro. Immigration is no longer a problem, the population pyramid is already decreasing again as we get older, there are no problems to pay the pension of retirees.

Quantum computers combined with artificial intelligence are solving humanity's most pressing problems. People are more monitored, crime has fallen, but individual privacy is no longer sacrosanct. Everything is paid for with digital currency, and the carbon footprint of each individual or company is tracked. People are more or less happy, but many do not like it.

Today in 2040, artificial intelligence is everywhere. In the world of work, it automates all administrative tasks and coordinates tasks to be carried out by humans. In the judicial sphere, judges and juries will be impartial and incorruptible. However, 2050 should be the decade of balance. We need to rehumanize our society. We need to rediscover real social links in this sanitized world.
