Entre Saúde e Aprender, devia-se ter metido a colher.

In my view, this future will unfortunately have many aspects that have a tendency to get worse.
We can start with education: not only are children and young people constantly "glued" to their cell phones/tablets/computers, but due to the pandemic, students have fallen behind and don't have the same thinking skills as they did 10 or 20 years ago. To give you an example: I have completed a practical course in hospitality, and I was in charge of a trainee. On a day when an essential machine broke down, it wasn't a problem for me because I was taught how to obtain the final product, but manually. I learned from her that due to the pandemic they didn't focus on these subjects, and that the main thing was for the students to pass. So much for the "do-it-yourself" generation.
As for health, more and more private hospitals will appear, doctors from the SNS will leave for the same due to better conditions, which will mean that users will also feel obliged to resort to the same due to the weak state support for the SNS.
Transport, I believe, will improve over time: the constant increase in paid parking, the demand from users for public transport, and the increasingly scarce remote work will reach breaking point before 2030 and will require the purchase of more equipment, the renewal of tracks and materials and even more frequent use.

What a relief we have left behind in the 1920s with all that succession of intertwined crises that seemed impossible to resolve! What a relief that we no longer have to think about whether democracy is in danger or live in the permanent uncertainty of whether there will be a reactionary retreat from everything that cost us so much to win! Just as we were finally aware of the physical limits of the planet and the doughnut economy succeeded capitalism, we were also aware of the limits of our democracies with mass debates that prevented (at last!) cruel authoritarian demagogues who did not believe in the values of democracy from seizing power again. I don't know how we could live with this permanent anguish... . No more gerontocracies, no more idycracies, no more techno-auritarism, no more perpetuation in power. AI is no longer a private business of billionaires who (finally!) were forced to distribute 90% of their fortune, as had already happened in the 50s of the last century. It has put itself only at the service of solving the great problems of the world. What a relief too that money no longer moves the world! All this was possible because the Constitution of the Land of Ferrajoli was approved and launched in 2030, the Magna Carta that protected all our global problems. The nature of which we are a part and without which we cannot live is especially protected. The Constitution provides a framework for everything to be solved diplomatically. Since its approval, the wars have ended and the genocidal people of the past have been severely judged. Yesterday we celebrated the feast of #Nevermore. If I have to describe what life is like now, the word that comes out is calm. Without constant threats to our safety and well-being, day-to-day life is placid.

Strenghtened EU-level, even global, governance mechanisms. Human-centered technology Limits to accumulation and consumption, especially for the super rich Vibrant ecosystem for new businesses Private initiative, public Administrations, and non-profits working side by side on big societal and environmental issues A post-growth economy based on sufficiency High quality of democracy High citizen participation

Global warming under control Several actions taken - by local communities, governments globally, schools and universities, corporations and myself and my colleagues - have determined the change in the global warming landscape for the better. The actions are implemented and mapped and are maintained in periodic execution according to plan. Floods, storms, landslides, excess rain and drought minimized monitored and minimized.

I care about our quality of life. I believe that we have drifted away from our human nature and consequently from nature/environment, which - let us not forget - we are its species. This of course has an impact on many things and first of all on health. I would like to see human-centred policies implemented in all aspects of everyday citizenship. To put people, their mental health, their personal progress and flourishing first. To pay attention to how satisfied (and why not, happy) people feel about their lives. What really matters to them?
