Higher education has become more accessible not only to every young person with high aspirations, but society and its leaders have become more interested in motivating young people to take this path. It was decided that each person must (not only voluntarily) contribute to small changes in his life and environment in order to influence global things. Everyone had to attend lectures or courses and get certificates that they knew things like proper waste sorting, first aid, occupational safety, hygiene. Many social networks have been banned and few have been left where intercourse is not allowed, while moderators include psychologists and specialists in similar fields who help commentators understand each other and turn a dispute into a dialogue. Meanwhile, uncensored comments or incitement to hatred and bullying are punishable. Also, people realized that animals feel and understand no less than humans, become more environmentally friendly.

La vie en 2040
With A.I., life will be completely different: it will no longer be necessary to go to the shops to do your shopping, and deliveries will surely be almost instantaneous once you've made your choice on an application. As far as healthcare is concerned, a field that is currently close to my heart, it may be possible to have an operation at home via a screen, and to be cared for by a robot. To get around and go on vacation, flying cars will be able to carry out this mission. To communicate with other ethnic groups, a chip could be implanted and the desired language used instantly.

Decay of the West
After the West had dominated the world for over 500 years, the tide turned abruptly in the 1920s. The once successful countries increasingly developed into care cases: incompetent politicians, declining growth, exploding national debt, increasing inequality, ageing populations, disintegrating social structures. Representative democracy has been hijacked by market players, the free market economy is now nothing more than a tool of capital, the rule of law is atrophying and civil society is being kept in a permanent state of crisis by constant media bombardment. The political decline is unmistakable. At the same time, Asia is developing into the new center of the world and the populations of the West look enviously at the achievements, but are incapable of adapting and developing further. Thank you Europe for nothing and goodbye!

Es wird einmal.....
By 2040, the expansion of renewable energies will have moved away from batteries and combustion engines, and we will only be using green hydrogen. There are only a few heating systems left that run on fossil fuels. The major oil suppliers have shrunk considerably because there is hardly any need for fossil fuels any more. Solar technology has progressed to such an extent that an entire house can be supplied with just a few solar modules. The political situation has changed dramatically, democracy no longer exists in the usual way, now the people decide on controversial issues by referendum. The European Union has agreed on a unified bureaucracy and policy, so most laws apply across Europe. We will have a European defense structure and thus be independent of other powers.

Hoffnungsloslotterie
My child will be 17 years old, his hair will probably no longer be blonde, but darker. But no one will be able to tell that he is different, no one will ask him where he comes from or his parents or when he learned German because of his face. I wish so much that in 2040 he doesn't have to worry and can openly say that he is Jewish. That his name is Hebrew and not Greek, that no one will attack him, that he can grow up without a packed suitcase in his heart. I hope and hope, even if it is difficult for me, I hope that the future will be better.
