The morning dawned with sunlight breaking through the glass dome that surrounded the Eco-City. I woke up in my zero-energy apartment and watched the drones go to work maintaining the city's gardens. The window of my room looked out onto vertical greenhouses growing fresh fruit and vegetables right in the centre of the city, providing healthy food for the residents.

After breakfast, I went to my job at the European Innovation Centre. My route took me through green parks. In the afternoon, I attended the opening of an exhibition showcasing the latest technologies to help combat climate change. I was proud that my team had developed a new energy storage solution that made solar and wind energy even more efficient.

The evening came with a town festival where people gathered to enjoy local art, music and gastronomy. I stood under the starlit sky and was happy to live in a world where people have achieved a balance with nature and technology. The world is finally at peace and harmony between peoples.

To tell the truth, I do not see a rosy future I would like that apart from the enormous advance of technology social networks disappear and we return to human relationships without idols to reach impossible and without living exclusively for the image, for the opinion of others and for money. I'd like some humanity back.

Un futuro sostenibile
In 2040 I would like a completely sustainable world, with renewable energy, green cities and green transport. Technology would improve life without harming the environment, ensuring well-being and more free time. Climate change would be under control and people would live in harmony with nature.

Hopefully someone will read it and take action. There is an urgent need to solve the housing problem. Creating a family is practically impossible if you have to be in a rented apartment at a high cost, from which the owner of the apartment with a small child can throw you out sometimes grazing him. It is no wonder that there is a decline in fertility in the EU and in lust if young families do not have a basic condition for creating families. Social security. No one asks you how much money you give a month for rent, and you don't get a loan at the bank, which installment would be less than what I'm paying for renting now. Where is the logic here? No wonder people emigrate from their countries to countries where conditions are better. There is no security either, these refugees, whom you say are doctors and engineers, and in fact ordinary monkeys are incapable of adapting to the civilization we have here. They are dangerous, endangering girls, children and senior citizens. You better pay the workers who do the ordinary work well, but there will be enough labour in the EU. On the other hand, we give ourselves a social contribution, beautiful apartments, while we Slovenes by nationality Europeans have to literally mantra to get a rented apartment.. nonsense. Let Europe take care of its people, you will not solve the migration problem in the EU, you can only solve it at its origin! Thank you.

I would like to see an environmentally friendly world where the economy is more evenly distributed between people, where we take care of the environment and animals and have environmentally friendly technology and development. We have a democratic policy that can work together despite ideologies. We are more self-sufficient and don't need to import that much anymore. Domestic sustainable production is favoured. We have a shorter work week and we live a more sustainable life. We eat less with meat and have free healthcare including dental care and optics. We have lower rates of sick leave because of this. We value other influencers, fillers and cosmetics. We have a balance between birth rate and death rate. We invest in research, inventions and industry that lead to sustainability. We invest in preventive measures to avoid crime and war. We work in collaboration in many areas to cope with all of the above. We also work to prevent corruption.
