Buducnost

The year is 2040 and Europe is a very different place. Instead of crowded roads, castles have become silent and peaceful marvels of technology. Self-driving and autonomous vehicles drive us through green castles, but the air is clean. Renewable sources of energy are rapidly replacing fossil fuels, making the continent self-sustaining. Each building has its own solar-energy grid, and the windows are smart, automatically adjustable depending on the world and weather conditions.

By 2025, there will be a major economic and ecological leap forward. European countries are fighting against climate change, raising standards for sustainability and technology. Greater investment in education has enabled new innovations in medicine, healthcare and display systems. By reducing CO2 emissions, buildings have become areas where people live in balance with nature.

Wanderings are a set of trends in enjoyment. With virtual reality technology, you can visit all corners of the world without leaving your home. But, at the same time, personal relationships have become easier, with digital platforms that allow instant communication with anyone, anywhere.

The future is coming, and we are its creators.

Equality and respect
Life is unpredictable but it’s worth. I believe that there will be more values to women. Women will become stronger and will have more opportunities and freedom. Same like men, women who will have the right to choose their own path. Housewives will be proud of themselves. They are already doing a hardworking job by looking after the family and the children but it will be great recognition for them. Men will support women in every possible ways to achieve their dreams. Men and women will respect each other’s boundaries, dreams and goals.

Utopija
I want a future where there are no wars, where people are able to live in dignity, where they can have a roof over their heads and where they are not cheap. I imagine a life without politicians who have a taste for blood and capitalism. I also imagine a green life, so that we do not destroy this planet.

So Europe in 2040. I would like to see much more cooperation and much less lying. I will talk about that a little later. A green future, of course, but not at any price, a much slower and actually environmentally friendly transition. This is particularly true of the car industry and the jobs in it. I predict that in 2040 a lot of transport will be by air, so cheaper, faster, safer and preferably with minimal refreshment. Ideally, less should be spent on defence, because that automatically means human lives, and deterrence is a children's story. This is where corporations play a much bigger role than politics. So they need to be controlled and restrained. And the money spent on defence should be invested in social welfare and, of necessity, in research and development. Now, about lying. It worries me when the President of the EU, a person in whom I am supposed to have complete confidence, publicly states that, say, Russia is harvesting electronics from washing machines in order to train its army. That the newspapers show a diametrically opposite picture of what is happening on the battlefield. That the EU has lost a great deal from the sanctions against Russia and nothing to gain. I could go on and on. I believe, however, that the evolution of man has not ended, that the man of the future will be more tolerant, that he will erase all the hatreds within him, that he will be open to everyone and anyone. This will not happen by 2040, not even by 2140, but it is already happening. The question that arises is...will there still be a 2040 for us...

Connectivity
Eu is seen not as one country, but as one unit. Nott divided by borders, but bound together by land. Instead of moving toward silos, goods are flowing freely between the countries, improving living standards, economies, and development exponentially. Transportations are eco friendly and connected between countries. EU is is the leading force in the world.
