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.

I hope that peace will finally return in 2040. The parties and politicians should pull together and finally focus on Germany and the needs of the population again. People are talking to each other more again and technology is helpful and saves time, but it also makes social interaction possible again. Europe has grown closer together again. There is a multi-cultural society that sticks together and complements each other well. Climate targets are being achieved together and nature is becoming more diverse again. People no longer travel by normal airplane, but have other methods of climate-neutral travel. Occupations will become more personalized. More skilled workers are needed. There are modern trains that enable climate-neutral travel.

In 2040, only organic food will be available. There will be no more animal suffering caused by humans, neither for food production nor for animal testing. The meadows will be colorful again and many insects and other animals will live on them because chemical pesticides will no longer be used. The waters are clean and the air is pure. Only really necessary items of clothing are bought and these are produced in an ecologically sustainable way and then disposed of in the same way. The same applies to furniture, crockery and all consumer goods. Electric cars are used in car sharing, all other cars are off the market. Public transport is closely timed so that hardly anyone still needs a car. Instead, there is a cheap ticket for all areas of public transport. Income disparities are low. The health and care systems are first-class and equally accessible to all. The educational institutions are in the best condition, the teachers are motivated and respected. And most importantly, there is peace and freedom everywhere in the world, so no more money needs to be spent on defense.

In 2040, I would like to see care for the elderly provided in multi-generational homes or many senior citizens' shared flats. Care is guaranteed and affordable for everyone, there are no more private health insurance companies, everyone pays into one pot and receives the same benefits. Environmental protection has been promoted and we have sufficient renewable energies, and nature is treated with respect. We have learned from the wars and there is peace and security again.
