The future - the word itself is so mysterious that it is very difficult to think about what might be behind it. Be it in the near future or much further away. If you think about it, it's an area that's a little close to your heart and a little familiar. The book world. Will there be more books in the future? There are already e-books and e-books. Or, on the contrary, we have returned to the present day, where the paper book still has a role to play. I would very much hope so. All I'd think about is - picking up a brand new book that smells of ink - waiting to see what content opens up in it. However, there are robots who will bring you a book and read it out. Good, comfortable, of course, but would you like to. Or maybe the robots are already so good that they don't have that metallic sound in their speech. They are also able to discuss what they have read. One thing is the emotion that comes from reading them, but another thing is also what the other (others) find in this text. There are probably no libraries anymore. Or, if it is, it has all retreated into the world of robots - service, communication, etc. Machines drive between bookshelves, find what you want, drive to the next robot, who will note it somewhere. There has to be an overview of where the books are. I feel like I'm going to become a robot myself, a marching step into the library, a book in a bag, thanks and the whole story. Communication regresses because there is no need for a large vocabulary. Robots are talented and advanced, but they don't replace humans. At the same time, we can't stand still and shout, we're already fine. In fact, it is.

DRUGACNOST
I am now living in 2040 and my children are facing a very different world. All lessons are only half an hour. All lessons are done behind computers and strange electronics. The weather has also got better, it very rarely rains and snow falls in abundance during the winter. The climate is controlled by us humans. We have also got medicines for almost everything (cancer, covid). The world has changed completely

Le retour de la sérénité
Given the current geo-political situation, I'd like our world to be at peace, less polluted, and for everyone to be able to live in harmony and on their own terms, for life to be peaceful and for the products needed for everyday life to be accessible to all. I hope that the world of politics and trade unions will at last be serious, balanced, respectful of everyone and listen to them with respect.

Des nouveaux isolants
In 2040, I'd like to see housing and dwellings upgraded to cope with climate change. To do this, we'd have to invent (if we haven't already done so) special exterior insulation that would protect against both heat and cold. Living conditions would really improve, and everyone would be able to live better and cope with extreme temperatures.

De la solidarité sociale à l'intelligence par l'investissement et le travail
The French, our politicians and European partner states are trying to correct the problems they have created by multiplying standards and administrative constraints, allowing distorted competitive trade and uncontrolled immigration. In 2040, competition is free and undistorted, in the sense that our companies are protected from European and international competition. Our Western values are defended tooth and nail. Priority urban neighborhoods no longer exist, because we've broken the all-social business. Local employment is preserved, and the social and political climate is calmer. Society is egalitarian because it is based on investment and work, not social debt.
