Hacia un futuro mejor

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

On June 15, 2040, Laura walked the streets of Madrid, which were now almost unrecognizable. The pollution had disappeared thanks to the green roofs and renewable energy systems that covered each building. There were no gasoline cars, only silent electric vehicles and flying bicycles that people used to move quickly.

From her neural implant, Laura accessed the public transport system without the need for cards or phones. He was heading to work at a company that developed artificial intelligence for education, helping children across Europe learn in their native language with interactive holograms.

He recalled how, in 2025, the climate crisis seemed unstoppable and people feared for the future. However, over the past 25 years, Europe had achieved radical changes in sustainability and technology. Now, cities were greener, inequality had declined, and life was more balanced.

Laura smiled. The future I had dreamed of as a child had come true.

Dark dark future
People no longer travel by plane, but by other, more personal means of transport. Water will be a problem, because its reserves have been exhausted, although devices have already been developed that extract water from the air, but it has deteriorated the air quality so much in big cities that people had to move away from them many years ago. New natural resources have been found in nature, which has eased people's food shortages. Many millions of people have died from new deadly epidemics that are developed in laboratories and are also developing in nature. Apartments have been built on the moon where people go on vacation. A few satellites are still searching for a permanently habitable planet. The thickness of the atmosphere has been improved, although it is really thin, many people also die from the cancers caused by it. Money has lost its value, new payment methods have been developed.

Healthy foods
The food gets cheaper and more qualitative. They stop adding unknown cemicals to food. They allow people who have farms or orchards to sell products off the field. There is a sugar quota… they add less sugar everywhere and ban some of the more unhealthy sugary things like sodas. The fitness centres are available to everyone and can be subscribed for as long as one wants and not binding people to them for half a year or more.

I think in 2040, technological advances will make medicine move forward. New techniques to diagnose diseases, AI technology to support doctors, or being the entity that treats. New types of therapies, drugs to increase the chance of a healthy convenient long life. Cancer will become a weaker opponent. Although the prognosis is not optimistic, there is hope that the number of health care workers will increase.

Utopia
I envision a world where common sense prevails, where there is respect for every living thing, for animals, plants and nature in general. Where everyone can satisfy basic needs. Where the word materialism no longer exists and money loses importance. I hope for a world where the word cancer is no longer scary
