Futuro Verde

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

It's March 2040. As I'm not working today, I'm going to take the opportunity to tend to my vegetable garden. As it hasn't rained for two days, I'm going to take the opportunity to water it with the water stored in the rainwater collector. This collector is distributed free of charge to people who have backyards so that they can use rainwater to water small areas. I check the energy production of the community solar panels that I have installed. The use of panels in energy communities is now common and allows this resource to be shared in small communities (villages or neighbourhoods), greatly optimizing energy consumption and considerably reducing bills. After tending the garden, I go shopping in my electric car. Unlike the first electric vehicles, considerable autonomy is now possible, even on long journeys, with the inclusion of solar panels on the vehicle itself.
Contrary to what you might think, there are still many employees in supermarkets, as technology has come to help people, not replace them.
Before returning home, I take the opportunity to pick up my grandchildren from the kindergarten, where they spent the day playing and enjoying nature.
I take the opportunity to do my own and the children's laundry. As the detergents used are organic and environmentally friendly, the water from the washing is also recovered and can be used, for example, to wash the floors.
As my son and daughter-in-law come to pick up the children, I take the opportunity to prepare dinner for everyone. We all work, but as I'm older, I now have reduced working hours that allow me to help with my grandchildren's education. My son and daughter-in-law can also request reduced working hours if they need to look after me when I'm not working or am ill.
When a caregiver is needed, we can also use community resources. Fewer and fewer people are institutionalized, and there is a "pool" of caregivers who are available for home care, collaborating with families.
The future can be uncomplicated when technology and legislation are used for the benefit of people and communities.

Spokojený svět
By 2040, our society and that of the world will be so prosperous that people will not be reduced to scams, thefts, tunnelling, or even wars. The land will belong equally to the rich and the poor. We will protect nature, not devastate it, because we will finally realize what it can give us if we take good care of it and protect it. People will not starve because there will be enough food for everyone. It will be a world of abundance and satisfaction for all, both for humans and animals. We will not envy each other because everyone will have the basics and it will depend only on each of us how we arrange it. It will be a world where one can live happily, and for diseases for which there are no medicines yet, immediate diagnosis and treatment will be possible.
