Life in my grandparents' time was very different from today. First of all, the pace of life was slower, and people had more direct contact with each other. There was no internet or cell phones, so communication was mainly based on letters, meetings and face-to-face conversations. Transportation was also less developed - trips took longer, and cars were a luxury available to few. Many people worked physically, and the technologies that make our lives easier today were still in their infancy. Today we live in a world full of modern technologies that make life more convenient and efficient. Remote work, high-speed transportation and smart devices are just a few examples of the changes that have affected our daily lives. However, there have also been new challenges, such as excessive digitization and environmental problems. In 20 years, life may look even different. We can expect further developments in technology, artificial intelligence and automation. Perhaps autonomous cars will become the norm, and work will become more flexible, allowing people to better combine work and private life. Also, medical developments may make us live longer and healthier lives. If we, as a society, pay more attention to ecology, our cities could become greener and more livable. It is important to strive for a future in which technology serves humanity rather than restricting it. I hope that 20 years from now, people will be more aware and caring of their surroundings, which will benefit both individuals and entire communities.

Traffic collapse was prevented by the presence of hyperloops and cable cars in major cities. A new invention of a foldable solar panel enables easy and fast charging of electric cars, which by further development cost no more than a normal vehicle, making driving affordable not only for the wealthy. Since every house or residential unit generates enough solar energy, the horrendous energy costs of 2025 have also fallen and people can afford to eat again and daily shopping has also reached the pre-crisis level. Vertical indoor farming means that fruits and vegetables can also be grown in the colder regions and, by eliminating the long transport routes, are also cheaper. With the wise investment of a European fund, every citizen gets 1000 euros of basic assets to cover the basic needs and many people have more time to make important inventions for society and to develop existing things further. Europe is so united on the migration question that Germany no longer bears the brunt of the refugees alone and because it is better able to take care of the individual persons, the attacks are also falling.

Une grande partie de la population suit des formations pour apprendre à réparer, transformer, recycler. Les savoir-faire techniques se sont démocratisés. On a mis fin à l’obsolescence programmée des biens de consommation. Les entreprises se sont adaptées, l’artisanat est en plein essor. L’agriculture privilégie les circuits courts. On a remis les mains dans la terre. Des millions de personnes ont changé de boulot ou diversifié leurs activités, et ce quel que soit leur niveau de qualification

In times when technology will have increased life expectancy even more, the community will have ways to collaborate with older people of age in terms of less wasteful care and illnesses less deleterious to quality of life. Consequently, an eventual improvement for the lives of the sick and elderly as a result of efficiencies in facilities and machinery aimed at care , will save time that can be invested in sharing and getting individual family members to participate more and more actively in group work that is aimed at improving society. The income will not only be for living experiences and thinking about a job will not have to work too long shifts but also enjoy life at home and with friends
