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?

Le respect des animaux
The future will undoubtedly be marked by the development of artificial intelligence. This raises both fears and hopes. For my part, I hope it will lead to major advances in the field of medicine, enabling us to live longer, healthier lives. At the same time, it appears that progress is being made in the area of respect for animals, albeit too timidly. I sincerely hope that it will continue to evolve, and that there will be no more animal suffering. May science enable us to feed ourselves differently, why not through the development of artificial meat. It would be wonderful if scientific progress could lead us to understand the mystery of life, why we are here... Finally, may mankind be wiser and exclude war, but that's in the realm of utopia, alas.

Gesund werden und nicht mehr allein sein.
In 2040 I will be 87 years old and I don't know if I will still be in this world. Now, at almost 72, I am reasonably ill and still take little part in life together. I spend most of my time alone at home in my beautiful 3-room apartment with a balcony. I have 3 children and 6 grandchildren but the contact is not that great. 2 children live near me, but they have their work, their house and their children. There is little time for me. When I need help, it usually works out that they help. How do I see the next few years? I would like to alleviate some of the symptoms of my illness or get rid of them completely. If that is the case, I would like to fly, not that far. I've never been to a foreign country like Italy, France or even Austria. I've also got to know almost nothing of Germany. As I can't walk or stand for long periods, day trips are not for me at the moment. I would like to get to know a man again, not to move in together, but to go out and be there for each other. My last steady relationship is from 1997. I would like Germany not to be involved in a war and for our economy to flourish again so that we can maintain our social system. I would like to be that old, but who knows that about themselves.

Frieden und Gerechtigkeit
Peace will soon reign throughout the world. Everyone will understand that wars are bad. Groups and people like the AfD or Donald Trump will go down in the history books as inexplicable bizarre aberrations. Finally, much more will be done consistently to tackle climate change. Care will be guaranteed for everyone and family carers in particular will receive much more support. The wave of immigration will subside by improving the quality of life in the countries of origin. Criminals will be punished more severely and consistently deported or imprisoned.

I would have found the perfect job where I could fulfil my dreams. A job where my opinion mattered and where I could work with people who were like me. I would have a job as a teacher, teaching future carers what it means to be present and to listen. My husband would be retired by now and we would look forward to the time when we could be retired together and just enjoy each other's company. I would soon be retiring and I would have a cottage somewhere by the sea with a lovely pier and a big sauna to lie on and enjoy the sunbathing. In the evenings I would sit on the pier with a tea-mug and watch the sea. I would be debt free and have money to do things that matter to me and I could travel and see the world. I would have built up a little nest egg to live in the moment and do things I enjoy. My family and friends would be well and doing well.
