Family first

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will have a 19, a 24 and 26 year old. I hope that we are able to stay close as a family. We would be able to live in close proximity with each other so I can help my children start their own lives. House prices are more reasonable so they don't have to move far away. I can see them often, child mind my grandchildren and travel with them. I don't want my children to be swamped with debt from huge mortgages, I want them to be able to continue their careers after having children and not have to give up work because of lack of affordable childcare. I us to able to travel together both locally and on ferry to France and UK without it being cheaper to get a flight to Spain for a week than stay locally for a weekend. I want our local government to put people first, building communities instead of just houses. I want my children not to have to worry about going to the doctors because it's too expensive or where will their children go to school because there isn't enough spaces for the amount of houses built. I want my children to be happy and to be able to make memories with them. I want my future to be family!

Preparing Ireland
I would like to see Ireland more prepared for storms. Cutting down tree's away from the roads and power lines and when shops lose electricity, solar powered power will then kick into place. Then they wouldn't have to close. Let's all work together now and prepare ourselves. Because global warning is happening.

la vrai vie
I hope that politics will not interfere in the lives of individual citizens and affect their well-being by imposing rules that don't take reality into account. Living together must be nourished by proximity, far from breathless social networks with purely mercantile aims.

Die traurige Wahrheit über Prioritäten der Menschen
I wish that politicians were more responsive to people. Unfortunately, that won't be the case. People will most likely be restricted in their values. The media will influence everyone and dictate everyone's opinion. The school system in Germany will get worse and worse and there will be more and more shortages of specialist staff. The reason for this is that they want to make people more emotional. And that only works with little knowledge and fear. And unfortunately this will continue until wealth takes precedence over human lives

Desideri di una nonna
Today is January 1, 2040, there are no more wars in the world and all peoples live in peace. Borders have been eliminated in Europe, and the inhabitants cooperate on joint projects to improve the environment around them. Climate change has suspended its evolution, and the tragic episodes that characterized previous years have disappeared .
