Elämme taas yhdessä

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Technology and its evolution from the industrial revolution to artificial intelligence took us away from each other. But then something happened... People began to understand the importance of togetherness. We were so far away from each other that at first it felt a little strange. But there has always been some desire within us to be part of a community rather than just individual individuals. And this is where, at the end of the 2020 decade, the idea of living in communities began to spread. At first it was only a little visible, but already within a couple of years, people who were strangers to each other started talking instead of saying hi to each other and making real deep friendships.

And little by little, we also began to understand how the way we had used technology has taken us away from each other. We have lived in a virtual world of phones and other technologies. We had united the world, but forgotten its most important... So what's close to us. This led a large number of people to start using technology more as a tool than as the one that controls our behavior. It also consciously started practicing social behaviour in schools in the 2030s.

We all live in a world w here our environment is much better and the forests are slowly coming back to life. There are fewer dead trees because the air is cleaner and less polluted with CO2. We have found various ways of producing less CO2 and removing it from the air. Private transport still exists and it is not just electric cars that are on the road. Overall, cars have become much smaller again because nobody needs such large vehicles anymore. People in large cities are also using bicycles of all kinds much more, so the number and width of roads has been significantly reduced. Everything is much greener. Wind, water and solar energy is widespread and can be produced and stored in sufficient quantities. Coal-fired power plants have been largely abolished and nuclear power has not been developed further. Heating has been reduced to a reasonable level in relation to oil and gas because these options have been significantly improved and produce even fewer emissions. People live much more with each other than against each other. The economy is still doing well because less unnecessary things are produced and goods last much longer and can even be repaired. Agriculture produces in reasonable quantities without doing so in places where, for example, water is not available in sufficient quantities for plants, people and animals.

The future of Europe, I hope, can be oriented toward the pursuit of the least possible environmental impact, the pursuit of scientific progress in the medical field, greater integration among peoples and less financial inequality among people, more attention to civil rights

Pollution would finally be falling, and a real awareness would have taken place everywhere (Europe and the rest of the world). No more active military conflicts in Europe and as few as possible in the rest of the world. Politicians would at last be willing to act for the good of all, and not for their own personal gain. Leaders would take a long-term view and not just look ahead to election dates...

The European Commission, that group of liberal satraps, has at last been replaced by democratically elected leaders, their cowardly behavior in the face of Russia having discredited them and led to a revolt by the nations that refuse to accept the expansion of the Ukraine they have maintained at arm's length, to the detriment of their agricultures, invaded by low-end products. Nations that came only to benefit from subsidies have been ejected, and are content with a free-trade agreement. Great Britain joined the Union as an observer. The bankruptcy of the German system and its coal-based energy finally made it possible to dispense with its tutelage. President Trump died, victim of Musk's coup. China tried again to invade Viet-Nam and took another beating. And I'm 89 years old.
