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.

It is 2040...around me I see so many happy retirees , after so many years of work they can finally enjoy life because they retired at the "right age" ,they can do what they always wanted to do because they have the economic ability to do it, they can spend time with their grandchildren because their children have found a good job, what they studied for or , simply, what they like to do. Because, if grown-ups go to work until. 70 years old ..for young people there is no place ...

Eine grüne Zukunft
The most important thing is to protect and preserve the climate. It is essential that we do everything we can to save the climate. In 2040, this has already been achieved to a large extent. Once it was recognized that the climate catastrophe is life-threatening for everyone, measures were taken to counteract it. Sustainable drives, a sustainable economy and a greener world overall have been implemented to minimize the damage that already exists. Governments have realized that climate protection can only be enforced through bans on companies and have done so despite lobbying. Ordinary people have been given tax relief in other areas so that they have not been hit by the concentrated force of financing environmental protection measures. The inner cities are almost car-free, people can get around easily by bike or on foot and relax because they no longer have to watch out for cars. The air quality has improved, allowing people to breathe more freely.

Kādu nākotni es vēlos
I would like to see a much more organised road infrastructure in my city, Riga, as well as transport. I think we should also work on improving living conditions and raising wages. One of the most pressing problems is the threat of war, so another thing I would like is for this situation not to go to war and for there to be full confidence in security.

Things should definitely be more peaceful in 2040. Palestine could have its own state, Kurdistan too and Russia has a new leader who is pro-European. Taiwan is still autonomous and independent of China. Europe has moved even closer together and speaks with one voice. IS no longer exists.
