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.

Nature
In the future I see (or more like I steongly hope to see) people loving nature and appreciating it more, showering it in love. People taking their time to nurture nature, planting more trees and plants, taking care of them. I see our nature triving, the world map looking more green with each passing day. I see more people talking about how beautiful our surroundings are and how important it is to keep it that way.

Umweltfreundliche Zukunft
In my future, more emphasis would be placed on the climate. There would be more research into renewable energy, the lifespan of technical products would be significantly longer and they could be repaired cheaply everywhere. Consumption would be sustainable and meat would be significantly more expensive. On the other hand, more emphasis is placed on environmentally friendly, healthy alternatives. Rainforest deforestation is banned and a sustainable alternative for wood is found. All in all, we respect nature more.

Es kann nur besser werden...
I urgently wish for a peaceful Europe, not only free of "special operations" at the borders, but also of terror within the borders. I would also like to see good living conditions, clean air, safe strolling through the cities, which would mean a massive reduction in individual, motorized traffic. Cruelty towards animals will hopefully be a thing of the past, so people will live mainly vegan, which will also help the climate. I am not as negative about its development as the mainstream (I prefer mild winters). I also very much hope that Europe has not succumbed to Islam and that the totalitarian nature of this ideology is recognized and combated in the meantime. Technological developments and inventions will make life easier in many areas over the next 15 years. I very much hope that the EU will not regulate everything to death, but will provide opportunities for new developments. I look forward to the beautiful and pleasant things that are to be expected!

Un monde idéal après des années catastrophique sous tous les plans
What a joy to have returned to a world where there is no more insecurity, no more aggression, no more war or terrorism. Everything can be recycled, and we've found a definitive solution to global warming. Full employment has returned, and there's work for everyone, thanks to the decision to apply selective and measured immigration. The justice system is uncompromising, and no one wants to repeat a crime because the penalties are so exemplary.
