In 2040, Europe is a model of technology, sustainability and social inclusion. Cities shine with automated public transport and clean energy, while drones manage shipments and security. Smart buildings recycle energy effectively and efficiently.

With universal basic income, people spend time on creative and community activities. This reduces stress due to questions such as; Will I arrive with my salary at the end of the month?, Can I afford a whim this month?,...

In social groups, people exchange ideas and learn together. The "Green Ring" of vertical forests purifies the air and guarantees fresh food. Physical borders are replaced by a network of cultural cooperation, and armies are focused on combating climate disasters.

A future with a lot of efficient technology; sustainable education over time for all social classes; in addition to the extinction of the largest pandemic in our world, hunger and the scarcity of hygienic resources.

Family nest
I would like to be in a civilization where the family is the center of the life. The most important is the family. Every body in the family taking care of the other. No more nursing home, but the older will be safe at home with the youngest looking for them. The eldest would take care of the youngest too: no more nannies or childcare. And the one of the family who cannot work outside the home would take care of the cooking : no more bad food and health problems...

Lepsza przyszłość
In the future, people will have various cybernetic and bionic body enhancements like in the game Cyberpunk 2077. However, just like there, human qualities like friendship, compassion and other relationships have been lost. We should, as humanity, constantly work on this so that relationships and marriages can manage to survive for years despite problems. Another issue will be the ubiquitous humanoid and other robots. Cars controlled remotely from a phone and watch is a matter of time, a gardener or a cashier in a store will become a relic of the old world. Much will change if not everything. But the world will still remain a beautiful place full of greenery, flowers and colors, but there will be various agglomerations and cities without a shred of foliage and trees, just concrete and buildings.

Frieden auf erden
We all live together in peace and respect, no one has to starve or die of thirst. If we fall ill, we receive medical help. The water on earth is clean and the air is pure. There are no more cars in Germany's inner cities and the cycle paths are safe and well developed. Everyone is in work and people are balanced and friendly.

intercity vervoer
A trip without worries to another European country would be nice. In fact, you could easily, for example, track from Bilbao to Cologne in a few hours in fast trains without too many stops in between. All major cities with about 250 000 inhabitants should be connected to such a network. Currently you lose many hours by constantly changing trains , so people take the plane. The current night trains are a start but the length of time is still far too long.
