I meet the beautiful morning of the year 2040 on the terrace of a social care home next to the river, among green trees. A holographic projector on the World News Channel has reported on the great strides being made in providing food for Earth's citizens. The generation of nutrients carries more than enough food. Thanks to the efforts of the European government, a large number of citizens who are no longer able to work actively are living a dignified old age in social care housing. In the welfare state environment, citizens contribute to the processes of the state to the best of their abilities. People actively participate in education and technology courses, which allows them to maintain their skills and keep up with the rapid development of technology. Most of the problems that triggered military conflicts have been resolved, and a large part of military spending is devoted to improving citizens' welfare and livelihoods. Developed countries are using renewable energy sources, and as energy becomes more expensive, more and more products are being developed to improve citizens' livelihoods and education. Increasing amounts of land are being reclaimed as environmentally friendly. International peacekeeping forces are successfully controlling the few remaining regions of the planet that are still vulnerable to conflict.

Pure world
I would really like to see 2 improvements, changes. Firstly, i would really like for wars, aggression and violence to end. They don’t bring any good to any of us. History is repeating itself over and over again. All these horrible acts of violence are unnecessary, and it would only benefit the humanity if they stopped. The second thing is ecological wellbeing. It would be really amazing, if in these 15 years we could clean up at least a part of pollution that we(as humanity) have made. In that way we would be helping our planet and nature to regain it’s strength again and also making our surroundings cleaner, much more pleasant.

Presa di responsabilità collettiva
I would like us as the European Union to be representatives of a new mentality of living the world and with the world. Starting from taking responsibility against contemporary ethical and civic issues, overcoming utilitarianism and capitalist accumulation to give more importance to humanity and the natural world.

Groener 2040
By 2040 we will finally be rid of fossil fuels, both homes and businesses can meet their energy needs themselves. In the past 15 years we have accomplished a lot in the field of sustainability. In addition, more trees have been planted and more places have been designated as places where nature can take its own course. Our food is becoming more local, and supermarkets are trying to stock with homegrown produce/groceries/fruit whenever possible. Children now get a standard healthy school lunch where sandwiches are not the most important part. Wars are over and our defense budget is lower in 2040 than it is today.
