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!

If I were to project myself into the year 2040, I think a lot would have changed, especially in our daily lives, with the use of artificial intelligence on a permanent basis. Artificial intelligence would be a great help to us in all our free time activities, making our lives much simpler and easier. Social interaction would be widespread, from social networking channels to transport, all flying with no toxic emissions into the environment. Smoking would be banned and everyone would be respectful of each other. It would truly be a tolerant society, with people helping each other.

Miers – izglītība, ilgtspēja un vērtību cienīšana

First, peace. Peace across Europe, with an educated, positive and sustainable society that respects old values and strives for new ones. A Europe in which every person’s voice counts in society, regardless of their faith, orientation or financial situation. This is possible in a well-educated community, because it is important not only that the majority of society accepts the minority, but also that the minority does not shout with its slogans. Technological progress has been somewhat "braked down" to be no longer the same as now that worn-out electronics cannot actually be recycled, and that AI enters places where human creativity must prevail, rather than machine thinking.

Retour vers la nature

It will be a greener world where nature and animals regain their lost place over the centuries. Energy will be less polluting and global warming will be an old story. The four seasons will return to their place. Transport will be clean, non-polluting and non-noisy

In 2040, the Great War in Central Europe is finally over. Minor conflicts still continue. Things have become unmanageable because of the EU bureaucracy and NATO's inefficiency after the US left the alliance. Russia managed to carve up the lands up to Germany, which occupied its former lands in Poland. Daniha lost Greenland, which was taken by the US. However, Russia had to give up some territories in the Far East to China. The EU ceased to exist, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal closed their borders to refugees from Eastern and Central Europe. Refugees from Central Asia did decrease after the US nuclear strike on Iran.
