In 2040, I would like to see a world where climate change is significantly delayed and sustainable development is a top priority for societies around the world. In this better future, we have achieved global cooperation and innovation that reduces carbon emissions, restores natural ecosystems and ensures equitable access to resources for all. Cities are full of green spaces and use smart technologies to manage energy and water. Renewable energy sources – sun, wind and geothermal – dominate globally. Transport networks are sustainable, with autonomous electric vehicles and efficient public transport systems that reduce the need for private cars. Life is healthier and more connected to nature. Humans use technologies to purify air, soil and water, and innovations in biotechnology enable sustainable agriculture without harmful chemicals. Local communities play an active role in preserving ecosystems, and sustainable resource consumption is a fundamental principle in the global economy.

It's the year 2040 and I'm living a peaceful, carefree life with the security my state has taken care of. On a daily basis, I use robotic intelligence that makes my life easier, from ordinary household chores to writing a book that I've been dealing with for years. I have time for my hobbies, which I can realize thanks to a better good situation. People are moving on electric flying cars and scooters. Everywhere is full of greenery and full sips I suck clean healthy air into my lungs. People treat each other nicely, there is no ego, and everyone thinks about the good of the other. All people have enough food and water, and there is no need to be envious of anything. Political solutions are concluded on the basis of the consensus of society, and there is no room for conflict, because everyone has as a primary goal the good and happiness of others. It does not pay with money, people have enough time for everything, and education is built on the pillars of constant improvement of their knowledge. There are no grades in schools, and children go there because they are interested in learning new things. On the streets it is safe, no one needs to steal, because everything is enough and materially loses its meaning. Everyone is provided with high-quality health care, for which no one has to pay.

In my future, armed conflicts have finally been resolved through discussion and pedagogy, borders are disappearing more and more, religions are less and less present, and men understand each other more and more. We have found new energy resources to produce the energy we need.

The world has finally become aware of the harmfulness of data collection by various companies. Microsoft has been ordered to remove from its operating system the collection of any information that is not directly related to the maintenance of the system's functionality. There are also strict limits on the collection of data from social media and other software, which force users to respect their right to privacy. Requirements have also been set for social media algorithms so that campaigns that incite harassment and channels that encourage extremism do not get in the way. Elon Muskin X is completely banned in Europe because he has openly stated his intention to manipulate the elections and supports extremist parties. The EU has increased its independence from the U.S.A. so that the actions of this volatile state do not cause much economic volatility. In fact, the EU has been able to increase its influence and cooperation with countries that have also suffered from the ruthlessness of the leaders of that great power. The EU has also recognised the Palestinian state and guaranteed its independence. Israel has been subject to sanctions similar to those imposed by Russia during the war in Ukraine. Fortunately, the EU decided to increase its support for Ukraine and gave full authority to use its weapons where they are needed, including on Russian territory, and Ukraine was finally able to take back the territory it belonged to. Climate change has finally been taken seriously. Lobbyists of large corporations are mostly ridiculed for attempting to overturn climate-friendly laws that apply to them in the hope of short-sighted profits. Large plantations have brought a large number of new diverse forests to Europe. Reparability is required for technical products: Each part must be easily and reasonably priced. Sustainable products will benefit from tax breaks, while those found to be rapidly degradable will face massive increases in taxation. This is why both refrigerators and tights are durable nowadays. A great deal of effort has been put into people's mental well-being: A healthy person doesn't rage. EU countries are required to provide a certain level of healthcare at a price that is also accessible to people on low incomes. The life of small entrepreneurs has been made easier, especially in countries where bureaucracy makes entrepreneurship difficult, even unprofitable, such as Finland. Small business is easy and profitable to do, even if it does not guarantee your entire livelihood.
