It was a sunny morning in September 2050 when I set out on a journey to the heart of Europe's future. As I traveled through Zagreb by autonomous electric vehicle, I noticed how public parks had transformed the congested streets. People were gathering in botanical gardens, exchanging ideas, and creating collective projects for a sustainable future.

Between 2025 and 2050, the world underwent a significant transformation. Cities became self-sufficient, and renewable energy replaced fossil fuels. Inspired by eco-innovations, I visited a center for innovation where young experts were working on developing new technologies for recycling plastic waste into bioplastics.

After lunch, I strolled along the Drava River, where cherry blossoms were falling from trees and providing a source of food. We were all connected – nature, technology, and people. In that instant, I realized that the future we had dreamed of was finally a reality. And every day was an opportunity to create a better world.

As I continued my journey, I witnessed a Europe where borders were no longer an issue, and people from all walks of life were living together in harmony. The air was clean, the water was pure, and the earth was thriving. I saw a generation of innovators and leaders who had taken responsibility for shaping their own future and that of their planet.

In this Europe of 2050, sustainability was not just a buzzword; it was a way of life. People had come together to create a world where technology and nature coexisted in perfect harmony, where the needs of the present were met without compromising the future. It was a future that was not just possible, but already here – a reminder that the choices we make today shape the world we live in tomorrow.

I returned to the present with a renewed sense of purpose, inspired by the people and projects I had met on my journey. I knew that creating a better world would require effort, creativity, and determination, but I also knew that it was achievable. And so, I encouraged others to join me on this journey, to dream big, and to work together to build a Europe that was truly for all.

So wird es aussehen, wenn man nicht sofort und jetzt konsequent handelt

Unfortunately, the view is quite sad. The Kingdom of America and the Tsar of Russia, as well as the People's Republic of China, dominate the world and exploit the rest of the countries. Europe has failed to build up a counterbalance in time, because it was too busy with itself, the right-wing populists have a large share in it. Moreover, Europe's states have not been able to create leaders, as small-town and selfish policies have left no room for leaders. Now you pay the bill with raw materials and patents as well as a population at the subsistence level, similar to Africa and Middle East. Self-driving trucks, AI in simple areas and centralisation have ensured that not even 30% of the European population can still work in any way.

There will be no wars in 2040, but peace, visa-free and visa-free travel between all European countries. Rail Baltica will be built so that you can easily travel between European countries. There will also be four-lane highways in Latvia and air traffic will be more developed. There will be a lot of solar panels and wind parks - green energy. There will be a lot of electric cars.

In Latvia, a generation of politicians has changed and those who have come to power have an understanding of the economy and business. Stronger powers and responsibilities have been transferred to municipalities, which prepare and take their decisions together with citizens' interest groups. Rapidly developed technologies and Latvia has become one of the leaders in the development of biotechnology and IT from the country of transit and deforestation. As a result, the standard of living of citizens is even slightly above the EU average. The education system has radically improved, with both advanced teaching methods and tools and strong parental responsibility for children’s performance and behaviour. Latvia has become even greener despite the EU's "green" policy, which is now doing more harm to nature than it does because it is based on false reasoning about the causes of global warming. Europe has freed itself from economic migrants, religious and political radicals, unnatural 'progressive' and aggressive neighbours, using both motivation and, where necessary, methods of force. Latvia has joined the European railway system, which promotes both freight transport and inbound and outbound tourism.
