Il futuro che (non) sarà...

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

A future where the values of "physical" attendance between people are rediscovered (after so many years in which relationships have often taken place almost exclusively online), perhaps in front of excellent cuisine (based mainly on traditional ingredients including meat and fish, which will no longer be intensively bred but leaving space and time for animals to grow and develop according to natural rhythms), where respect is a transversal condition and guaranteed to everyone (regardless of gender, ethnicity, religious belief, etc.) but where justice is really fair (slightly punishing those who commit minor crimes and heavily those who should resort to major crimes). A world in which wealth should be redistributed so as to create common well-being (and not with 80% of the economic resources in the hands of 3% of the world's population), in which mobility will be ensured by truly sustainable individual or family transport decks (after the false chimera of "full electric" traction, alternative fuels are finally discovered that are eco-compatible but at the same time guarantee low costs of purchasing vehicles and long autonomy with very short recharging times, all comparable to fossil fuels in use at the thresholds of 2000). A future where work is for everyone and is as compatible as possible with everyone's aspirations, without exploitation and with fair remuneration. A future where health is real and its maintenance completely free for the citizen. A future that does not forget the past but that instead improves it, showing everyone that everything can be done without conditioning the economic lobbies (true cancer of the past).

We are in the year 2040 and medical research has progressed so far that a cure for cancer has been found. If cancer cells have already formed in the body, the new drug inhibits the growth of the cells. If nothing has formed yet, an immunization cure can be started with new drugs. Vaccination is an option for children.

In the year 2050, we wake up in a world unlike anything I have ever known. The sky is clear, the air is cleaner, and cities that were once characterized by crowded streets and dirty exhaust fumes have been transformed into green oases. The architecture is new and futuristic, but in harmony with nature. The day starts early, no need to use my smartphone as all the information is displayed through the lens of my eye. I enjoy a breakfast of food that is not only sustainable, but also personalized. No more artificial sugar or superfluous calories, instead a mix of plant-based proteins and nutrients that promote my well-being. The climate is more stable thanks to decades of hard work and innovative renewable energy technologies. Countries are no longer working against each other, but with each other to find solutions for the planet. The goal of reducing CO2 emissions and healing the planet has not only moved politics and business, but also people's hearts. The streets are quiet, electric vehicles glide silently by. Public transportation is not only efficient, but also fully connected, so that I can travel from one city to the next in an autonomous train.

In the future, I hope we will live closer to nature and its resources in a more sustainable society. I hope that our children will play a bigger role in the way we invest in preschool and school to enable a better future for them but also the whole planet. I believe that education reduces war, gang crime and social injustice. We have met the environmental targets and are taking care of our planet, so we can feel that our children's future is secure!

It is 2040, 15 years have passed since the German federal election, 16 since the Austrian one. The increasingly noticeable shift to the right has been reversed, the AFD and FPÖ have lost a massive amount of support. Racism throughout Europe and worldwide has decreased, the social gap has closed again, care and the healthcare system are running smoothly and poverty in old age is hardly an issue anymore. As a result, people are once again more peaceful, friendly and generous towards one another.
