In this future, we all have a four-day week or less. For the same salary and with the same efficiency, we only work three or four days, half of them in the office and half in the home office. We have more time for volunteering, raising children, continuing education, political engagement or just hobbies and sports.

I hope that by 2040 new forms of energy supply will have taken hold. That nuclear fusion reactors in the Netherlands will ensure that there is power in abundance, bringing the prices of energy down considerably. As a result, the prices of electric cars, appliances and household use will also hopefully go down and technology can make a big step forward. Smart homes are everywhere and there are hardly any CO2 emissions.

A life where there is no smoothness, no rhythm, no outlet for pain, living abandoned, without creatures, with clean air and water. The Earth's plague has one predecessor, order and peace reign, and the penalties are draconian for breaking any law. Access is by air, and by public transport, but there are no cars.

Society has overcome its overwhelming dependence on information consumption and has learned to use AI solutions effectively, controlling environmental impacts and social equity. Advances in medicine and health monitoring have made it possible to avoid the emergence of unplanned epidemics and the spread of infections. All forms of energy are increasingly being generated through safe technological solutions in the fields of nuclear energy and chemical fusion. This significantly reduces the need for industrial-intensive energy production, which has a major impact on the planet's ecological health. Humanity has begun active exploration and exploration of solar system objects.
