Den Klimawandel abgewandt

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In the year 2050, Mia woke up in a world she could hardly have imagined 25 years earlier. Her house, a self-sustaining ecosystem made from recycled materials, greeted her with a gentle voice: "Good morning, Mia. The air quality is optimal and your breakfast is ready."

The world had undergone enormous changes since the 2030s. Climate change, once a global threat, had been curbed by radical measures. Cities were now green oases, with vertical forests covering the skyscrapers. Energy was generated almost exclusively from renewable sources and fossil fuels were a thing of the past.

Mia walked the streets where drones quietly delivered parcels while autonomous vehicles passed silently by. Thanks to groundbreaking medical advances, life expectancy had soared and diseases such as cancer were almost eradicated through preventative gene therapies.

The world was not perfect, but people had learned to share their resources and live more sustainably. Hope and progress were the new constants of humanity.

The future should be green. By 2025, we have taken on the environmental goals to give our children a greener future. My grandchildren can run barefoot and feel the grass tickling under their feet. They can lie in their pram and see birds flying across the sky and hear birds chirping as spring approaches. They will be able to swim in the sea without risking poisoning. And when they have children, they will also be able to look up at the sky and see birds flying

I wish all people had all the social rights . So everyone will have the right to a home, a job and free time to devote themselves to the family and their hobbies. And that people around the world should no longer be forced to migrate to improve their living conditions

Natura...nascosta.
The sun does not shine higher in the sky than it once did: smog now clouds everything and we are forced to walk the streets of our cities with torches.... how beautiful it was in 2025 when you could lie in the sun on a lawn. A lawn? What is it? Never heard of it. A lawn was a huge expanse of green grass that was caressed by the wind and on which you could sit, play, have fun. Ah, I get it: It's the covered football field! No, that's synthetic grass made from the plastic of too many bottles floating above the water of seas and oceans. Why aren't the expanses of bottles so underneath? I thought that was their real consistency in length, breadth and depth. What are we leaving to our children and future generations? Ignorance of true nature?

First and foremost, I would like to see a future Europe that is safe, both without terrorism and without wars. A powerful force in the world whose security is in its own hands and which decides its own future and is more representative of its own beliefs. I continue to imagine a happy people, with many dreams, with health programmes, with more affordable and advanced medicine, so that the standard of living is the same. Less bureaucracy for ideas that would build the European economy and Europe itself. At the forefront of technology and using only energy from renewable sources. Clean. That is the Europe I envision.
