Itsekkyyden aika on jäänyt taakse, pidämme parempaa huolta toisistamme ja maapallostamme

Permanent world peace has been achieved. Political leaders have agreed that we respect each other's land and sovereignty, so we no longer need weapons against each other. The money saved has been used to tackle climate change and stop the rise in temperatures. Waste collection and recycling has also reached a level where it is beginning to look as if the earth's carrying capacity will last into the next century after all. Income inequalities have been levelled out, both in Finland and globally. We have found new ways of employing young people, for example through longer apprenticeships. Society continues to take care of the disadvantaged, but also by better integrating them. There is no ageism, neither for young people nor for seniors. This is how we can extend working careers. Work will be increasingly independent of time and place, so there will be no need to move in search of work, and we will keep Finland populated to the extent that it makes sense. People's mutual care, community spirit and altruism have increased and selfishness has disappeared. Finland is still the happiest nation in the world, but also the most knowledgeable. Learning and education have risen in value, and in return, culture and art are also valued.

Friedliches Leben in einer friedlichen Welt
The land is technically up to date. Taxes are levied fairly and everyone has almost equal space for themselves and a garden. Religions are banned, eliminating many differences. Thanks to fusion energy, sufficient energy is available everywhere at a very low price. Local and long-distance transportation has been reorganized and rationally planned so that punctual, clean journeys can take place reliably (like Switzerland or Japan now)

Europe, eine Zukunft in Wohlstand und Sicherheit
A united Europe in peace and with prosperity and security for all. A common security and defense policy, away from the USA, to show Russia's dictator the limits. Great Britain back in the EU, Ireland united and Ukraine the newest member of the community.

Ein Volk wird erwachsen
The year 2040 is a good year, because the pointless regulations from the EU are history - instead, competent people are taking care of really important issues such as education and research. As a result, the level of education will have risen again and people will have learned to question themselves and others critically and honestly.

A sustainable and peaceful Europe
In 2040, I envision a Europe that is sustainable, inclusive, and peaceful. The war against Ukraine has finally ended, and lasting peace has united nations. Clean energy powers our cities, and green spaces thrive with urban farms and vertical gardens providing fresh, local food. Transportation is fully electric, with high-speed trains and self-driving buses making travel efficient and accessible. Rural areas flourish thanks to smart infrastructure and digital connectivity. Education is more interactive, using virtual and augmented reality to create equal opportunities for all. Social equality is a reality, with fair wages, affordable housing, and universal healthcare ensuring a high quality of life. Communities are strong and diverse, embracing innovation while prioritizing human connection. Technology supports well-being, enhancing lives rather than replacing jobs. This is the future I hope for—a Europe built on peace, sustainability, and inclusivity, where we all thrive together.
