Democracy, solidarity, presence, sustainability and humanity. Politicians and social debaters around the world have succeeded in opening people's eyes to the joke of these topics, so that as many people as possible can have as good and safe a life as possible, while at the same time taking care of the planet and using only what we need

I hope that there will be facilities and care enough for the grey wave of which I will be a part in 2040. Care is not an attractive sector for the next generation, but it is also our joint care. Above all, I hope that as a result of my positive way of life, I can become a strong and vital old.

In a better future, the Earth would be much better off. Air, ship or car traffic would no longer be polluting, but vehicles would run on water, wind or solar energy, for example. Recycling would have evolved enormously, and everything could be recycled. Recycling would be made mandatory by law, and failure to comply with the law would result in a substantial penalty. Eating meat in its present form would have been left behind and replaced by artificial meat produced in laboratory conditions. In addition, ecological vegetarian food would have strengthened its position. Fast fashion would have been almost completely eradicated, and the production of clothes should be done in an ethical and environmentally sustainable manner. Human rights and equality would have taken a great leap forward. There would be no racism, people would accept each other and treat each other kindly and fairly. Animal rights would also be better protected and animals would no longer be used to satisfy people's food needs. There would no longer be war on Earth, but there would have been progressive ways to preserve peace. Education is free and truly accessible to all.

It's 2040 and so much has changed in the last 15 years. Mobile phones are now the size of an earbuds and can be placed into your ear and operated by soundwaves and electrical energy from your brain. Robots do most of the household work and soon will replace humans in the workplace. Banks supermarkets and restaurants no longer need humans to serve everything us computerised and ready made meals are packed in dishes and stored in fridges by robots.
