Bitte glaubt an unsere Jugend

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

We recognized and fought a climate crisis...and we lost. We realized too late that our "lifestyle" will cost many generations their heads. We still fought wars because we thought borders, religions, money or power were worth measuring in blood. We have marginalized people based on faith, skin color, sexuality or simple free spirit. We thought WE defined normal, determined the norm. But we have created generations that want to and will put an end to this. We have conjured up a battle and left the battlefield to our children and grandchildren. Now let them! Don't spoil it for them! We have already failed, now let them clean up the battlefield as THEY want. Support them and don't block them. You have been wrong for years, don't think that YOU now suddenly know the solution to the problem; you were the problem and now let the youth "attack" the problem too. Believe them, your narrow-mindedness must not cost so many people their future again. Much more: help them, help them with what you still have. Don't deny them the wish for change... you had these wishes too. And you know what it feels like to lose dreams and hope.

Self sufficiently Green.
In 2040 all dwelling places are sold with a small growing space where people grow some if their own food. In addition all new apartments are linked to a communal growing space that has a polytunnel for growing tomatoes, courgettes, beans. In 2040 there is no more factory farming and most of the population are vegan. Animal welfare has become an important topic and people have realised that a plant based diet is the most healthy way to live. Membership of these food growing allotment spaces is free and as public transport is now free, there is no barrier to access them. Because of catastrophic climate events, people now realise the importance of food security and self sufficiency. They have voted for parties that promote green living and animal and planet care.

Ma vision du future
I'd like the future to be conducive to change and for us to put more projects in place to safeguard flora and fauna. I'd like this future to be less polluting by introducing new renewable energies. A future in which violence and war are reduced thanks to agreements between countries.

Krieg und Frieden auf der Erde
I wish for peace on earth. Wars are terrible and cost human lives, everything is destroyed and people have to flee. People must all be able to live in peace, the money spent on wars can be better spent elsewhere. A third world war would be glorifying, millions of people would have to flee or will die. I myself have never experienced war in my country, but my parents and grandparents have told me about war. I want to hope that there will be peace on earth in 2040, but there should also be peace by 2040. My wish for 2040 is to have a carefree life and to be able to live well in my country.

Träumerei
A united Europe with a strong economy and army, independent of the USA and strong enough to withstand external influences. After a civil war in Russia, it is shaped by the West. Much has been done for the climate and people are doing well in a world where everyone benefits. Cars with new technology characterize the streets. Health care is of a high standard and housing is affordable for everyone.
