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.

Over a long period of years, the situation in the world has started to improve. It did not go quickly and smoothly. It took time, will and resistance to be as it is today. In the face of nature's great warnings to wake up and make the world a better place, we have decided to work. We have reduced the use of fossil fuels (almost sparking), limited the use of plastics, and realised how important it is to take care of waste. And, over the last 10 years, we have reduced our gas emissions, and we are stopping the earth from heating up by deforesting the forest. Nature is beginning to recover, there is less bad weather, the climate is returning to normal, and we are back to four seasons.

Cleansing flame

We’ll need to address changes coming due to climate change while making sure economy and by extension our societies also adapt in a sustainable way. We need to allow nature to heal and regrow as much as possible for the ecological chains to sustain themselves and humanity. It is going to be a difficult task as lit of these changes comes with a price and uncertainty, but education and long term thinking and decision making from those in power could make this happen. I’m not sure however that this can be done without sacrifices. I tend to think that humanity will only try to change its ways when it has no other choice as a whole, only after a lot of suffering and death. A cleansing flame of sorts. I wish this wasn’t true. But I fear it is.

Budućnost bez problema

In the future, I would like to see fewer hungry and poor people. I would like health care to be available to all equally, so that there is no excruciating pain. I would like us to be able to travel to whichever part of the globe we would like. So that people have a job that pays enough to live a normal life. I would like us to respect, support and vote more.

In 2040, they want to see a future where sustainable energy sources completely replace fossil fuels. Humanity has made significant progress in the fight against climate change, and the world's energy production is almost entirely based on renewable sources - solar, wind and hydro. Thanks to advances in energy storage technologies, electricity grids are stable and efficient. Cities are greener and more liveable: buildings are self-sustaining and transport is based on electric and autonomous vehicles. People are producing less waste because the circular economy principle is embedded in all industries. Within this future, education and technology are intertwined, allowing everyone to access the best knowledge materials. People are taking better care of each other and the planet because they recognise that sustainability is not just a choice, but a necessity.
