Creating a shared and inclusive future for all (human & non-human)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I imagine a future that places where people live are inclusive for all species, and are designed through participatory and collaborative processes based on wellbeing and propesperity, rather than economic profit. I imagine a future that slowly moves away from economic growth and towards degrowth, trying to bring stability back to our ecosystems by regenerating them. I imagine a future where local government has more power, skills, and resources to care and address for the environmental and social issues rising within their communities in a democratic way. I imagine a future where everyday life is made more wholesome, by creating pockets of community, solidarity, and collective care, all the while work hours are decreased. I imagine a future where people of all backgrounds have equal rights, and where minorities are supported and celebrated. I imagine a future where the majority of local mobility happens on foot or by cycle. I imagine a future where we learn from the wisdom of our ancestors, rather than destroying indigenous communities and populations. I imagine a future where Western thought is not colonising the world, and other ways of being flourish and co-exist. I imagine a future where people's migration is not be feared, but to be welcomed. Because migration will be necessary, as we have utterly destroyed many parts of the world, making them uninhabitable.

I want a world without wars and terrorism, but the reality is that there will be more and more of this. Digital literacy will be much more developed, as will artificial intelligence. Future generations will be more protective of their environment and nature, as it shows us our teeth over the years and will even more remind us by 2040 that we are destroying it too much. The poor will be poorer, the rich will be richer.

Well, as I imagine life in such a distant future, it must take another 15 years until 2040. I'll be you by the time I'm 70, as I imagine this life in 15 years. Well, I would like to build a large heating plant, of course ecological, which would use the energy of the sun and which would produce pr ad and heat for a small price. I would also like to see centers for the development of friendship and care, so that every person, regardless of age, can experience friendship. so that , children are taught in schools how to develop social competences, so that these important values, which were very much cared for by the kid, are returned, i.e. honesty, care, selflessness, empathy, so that people are good and friendly to each other. I also hope that Poland will fight for its position in Europe, and not, as we are now, a backwater, thanks to our politicians who have the interests of the country and the nation somewhere.

That there is peace in the world. It starts on the street that everyone treats everyone with respect. That there are no wars among the peoples. That we get climate change under control and not so much is destroyed by heat, drought and floods. That the economy is on the right track, that all people have good work and that they can afford everything and that prices do not rise to the bottomless.

I want a future where technology and ecology are developed. I wish cars were emission-free. To be electric vehicles, to allow homes to live comfortably and efficiently, while helping to reduce resource consumption. I would like to see health progress and thus increase people's life expectancy.
