Hi! My name is Rune. My name is Rune and I want to tell you about the amazing cities we're going to live in when I grow up. It's going to be so cool!

First of all, all buildings will be covered in plants! There will be gardens on the roofs and green walls everywhere. There will be trees and flowers in all the streets and we will be able to pick fruit from the trees when we walk home from school. It will be much better for the planet and it will always smell nice.

We don't just want electric cars, we want flying cars! They won't be noisy and pollute like the cars we have now. I imagine we'll be able to fly above traffic and get there faster. Maybe I can fly to my friend's house in a few minutes!

Everything will be really smart and talk to each other. When we walk down the street, the streetlights will turn on when we approach and the garbage cans will tell the garbage trucks when they're full. There will be robots to help us carry heavy objects and clean the streets.

There will be lots of sensors and cameras to keep us safe. We'll know when it's safe to cross the road and there will be alarm systems to tell us if something dangerous happens. Parents will always be able to find their children with their phones.

Schools will be so different! We won't just sit at tables and listen. We will do fun experiments, build robots and take virtual trips to the past and future. We will learn about the world in new ways that we never could before.

There will be super-fast trains that can take us from one end of the country to the other in no time. There will be bike paths everywhere and we will all have cool electric bikes and skateboards. I think we'll be able to rent them with our phones and leave them wherever we want.

All our houses and schools will use solar and wind energy. We will have big wind turbines and solar panels on every house. And we'll recycle almost all of our waste, so almost nothing will be thrown away.


There will be lots of parks and play areas with virtual games and adventures for us to play in. We will also have large forests and lakes in the middle of the city where we can go boating and fishing. We'll be able to watch movies on big outdoor screens and go to concerts in the parks.

There will be plenty of places to meet and socialize with our friends and family. We'll be able to play games, cook together and participate in fun activities. Everyone will feel part of a big community.

I can't wait to see what the cities of the future will look like! I think they will be amazing and I hope we can all live in cities like that one day. What about you? What do you dream of in the cities of the future?

Frieden, Zufriedenheit, Miteinander
There are no borders or wars over countries and power. People change their lives when they want to go where they want to go. Every person is welcome everywhere, learns the language and habits, contributes there and earns a living. People help and support each other. Satisfaction, trust, togetherness, the focus is on us.

2040 NOW
By 2040, Europe’s cities have blossomed into car-free, climate-resilient hubs where nature and innovation thrive. Streets once choked by traffic are now vibrant pedestrian zones lined with vertical gardens and solar-paneled rooftops. Electric trams and bike lanes connect neighborhoods, while drones deliver goods via green hydrogen power. Energy democracy reigns: communities co-own wind farms and solar grids, sharing surplus through smart systems. Waste is nearly eradicated—AI-driven circular systems repurpose 95% of materials, and urban farms in skyscrapers supply hyper-local food. Rivers once buried under concrete flow freely, flanked by parks where children learn in outdoor classrooms. Biodiversity surges as cities dedicate 30% of land to rewilding, linking green corridors for wildlife. Citizens breathe clean air, their well-being prioritized through affordable housing, green jobs, and inclusive decision-making. Europe’s transformation proves that cities can be engines of sustainability, fostering equity and resilience while reconnecting humanity to the planet. This future isn’t just green—it’s alive, democratic, and designed for all.

Un mondo migliore
I imagine a better future , more sustainable, where people will become more aware and consumerism will also decrease. The only thing that is hard to imagine is the world of work. I don't know if it will get worse thanks to artificial intelligence or I want to be hopeful and I want to think that maybe new technologies and artificial intelligence will even improve the world of work, will create new jobs, jobs that maybe I can't imagine right now

Bezpieczna przyszłość w dobie sztucznej inteligencji.
The year 2040 is marked by technological development. Artificial intelligence is present at every step and helps people in everyday matters. It has partially replaced many of the human occupations that have been carried out so far, while at the same time creating new jobs and facilitating many activities. Europe, under the leadership of wise rulers, has closed itself to dangerous immigration from the countries of the Middle East and Africa. Migrants committing crimes were deported. Citizens’ freedoms have been significantly increased, social media censorship has been abolished and unnecessary bureaucracy has been reduced. The possibility of voting and dealing with all official matters via the Internet has been introduced. Nonsensical climate protection projects have been abandoned for technical development, which over time will lead, without coercion, to improved air quality and lower exhaust emissions.
