A Day in the Europe of the Future - Year 2040

The sun rises over a green city where tall trees line the streets and solar panels cover the roofs of both old and new buildings. I step out the door and see that the sidewalk is filled with people and dogs, all on their way to today's adventure. By 2040, Europe is a place where nature and technology work together to create a sustainable and harmonious world.

Since 2025, major changes have taken place. Fossil fuels are almost completely gone, and means of transport are powered by renewable energy. Smart bike paths and electric trains have made it easy to travel between countries, and I can cycle smoothly from Uddebo to Denmark without having to worry about dangerous car roads. Windbreaks and small eco-buildings can be found along the way for travelling outdoor enthusiasts and their four-legged friends.

Dog ownership has also changed. Thanks to better training and accessible training, dogs are now welcome in more places, and public spaces are adapted for both humans and animals. The dog care profession has become an established and respected profession, and I work to educate both dogs and their owners to create better relationships and understanding.

In this future, we have taken care of our planet, our animals and each other. Life feels freer, simpler and more sustainable – just like I always dreamed of.

Se på mig
When you sit in a café in the sun, people talk. The cell phones are gone. You look into each other's eyes and take an interest in each other. Respects differences, sexuality, skin tones and attitudes. They no longer judge each other. There is peace and quiet in the world. No one feels superior to anyone else. The focus is on the contact, interaction and respect between people. There is peace and no stress.

Ma maison du futur
Always very connected. A detached house that is enough for itself. Photovoltaic panel, water recycling. Have warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally I have a greenhouse that allows me to eat fruits and vegetables that I produce myself. There will also be cameras for my safety. I would very much like to see other propulsion modes for my vehicle develop, with solar panels to charge my car.

Czy to bajka, czy nie bajka?
A better future... We drive electric cars, and electricity to them is provided by wind and nuclear power plants. Non-organic plastic replaced glass, in a garbage incineration plant with efficient filters made waste pits finally unnecessary. The air in Polish cities is suitable for breathing even in winter, and in summer we are not afraid of drought and lack of water. And instead of arming, we spend money on health protection and equal opportunities for children and adolescents. All this may be possible, but I'll put it between the fairy tales...

Den gröna framtiden
I would like to see a future where there has been a major change for the benefit of the environment and the future of the planet. Solar, wind and hydropower have replaced fossil energy sources. Buildings, houses, etc. are equipped to be self-sufficient both in terms of energy and, for example, basic raw materials such as potatoes and the like. Public transport has switched entirely to electric vehicles and there are incredible high-speed trains that can compete with flights between major cities.
