It seems very important to me that we start slowly returning ‘back to time’, reverting to the community and ‘home’ the individualisation that the modern world requires of us. I believe that we are in the world to survive together – in the sense that not everyone works alone, but it is very important to interdependency from humans and to rely on each other. Everyone would contribute to society which would make up some of the necessary livelihoods. They would live in some kind of shared housing dependent on self-sufficiency and natural resources – i.e. surrounded by nature. I would not go to the job/after corrections each with his own car, but would share or make good bus/rail lines to make it easier to travel. We would resist a capitalist way of thinking that gradually leads society into a divide. People would have the opportunity to stop and breathe, look to themselves and each other. Everyone would have the right to life, a variety of minorities that are often overlooked, LGBTQ+ groups that are oppressed – it would essentially be a borderless world, as the border is an imaginary concept that inspires hatred and nationalism. It would not be absurd who and what we are, because we would all strive for equality and a beautiful tomorrow. In short, it is difficult to describe – but the whole system would work differently. Schools would learn something essential to survival and think outside the contexts in which we need to think today.

I hope that there are some decision-makers who have opened their eyes to how society's economy can hang together in the long run. In 2040, I'm 51 years old and apparently still have more than 20 years in the labor market - that is, if I live that long. So in 2040, I hope that we have sorted out how the welfare society will be able to hang together and if I continue to work in the public sector, I hope that there has been a major review of the legislation surrounding public benefits, so that there is more dignity for both the sick and the caseworkers on the other side of the table.

There is no more money, everything is free, jobs are done without pay because we don't need it anyway because everything is free, people live in peace and without worry, we have enough natural resources, nature is green and unpolluted, politicians have become honest because there is no money to bribe them with....

In 2040, a world war will rage. It will be fought largely over water resources, which will then be chronically scarce. The few countries that still have clean, drinkable water resources will be under occupation by the richer developed countries, which will own their water resources. People will live in scarcity and poverty, famine will reign, disease will be rampant and people will die en masse from malnutrition and poisoning. War will end when humanity is extinct.

In 2050, Europe is very different. Cities have become green and smart, with tall buildings covered in plants that clean the air and generate energy. All buildings are energy self-sufficient and every home uses advanced recycling and solar panels. Cars have disappeared from the city streets, replaced by wide paths for pedestrians and cyclists. At every turn we see urban gardens where people grow their own food. Transport has changed completely, with high-speed railways and flying cars connecting cities across Europe. Education is technology-driven, with every child having access to a personalised curriculum. Europe has become a centre of innovation, where people from all cultures come together to create a better future, free from pollution and more connected to nature.
