Latvia, EU, UK and others 15 years into the future

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Europe is getting ready to federalize, with big autonomy for the current member states, and life couldn't be better. Latvia (the member state where this future idea comes from) has went ahead and become more liberal and open-minded following a victory of a coalition of liberal parties in 2038 Saeima Elections, and so did nations such as Serbia, Hungary and others following their respective elections. Investment into projects and social support is at it's highest point in 30 years, following full introduction of Rail Baltica, due to which the economy is at it's highest peak, higher than the one Latvia experienced after increased investment after joining EU in 2004, 36 years ago. The far-right rise of 2020s has decreased up to a point where parties as Vlaams Belang (in BE), Latvija Pirmā Vietā (LV), Fidesz (HU) and others do not register support higher than 2, maybe 3,5%. Northern Ireland and Ireland unite together - bringing the long history of division to an end; Scotland and Wales (after becoming independent), Ukraine (with the 1991 borders) and Sakartvelo (after a successful revolution against the georgian dream government in 2024-2025) join the EU. England is starting to reconsider Brexit, and starts reforms needed to rejoin the EU.

Ma maison du futur
Always very connected. A detached house that stands on its own. Photovoltaic panels, water recycling. Warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally, I have a greenhouse so I can eat the fruit and vegetables I grow myself. There will also be cameras for my security. I'd really like to see other forms of propulsion for my vehicle developed, with solar panels to recharge my car.

Czy to bajka, czy nie bajka?
A better future... We drive electric cars, and electricity for them is provided by wind and nuclear power plants. Unsustainable plastic has replaced glass, garbage incinerators with efficient filters have finally made waste pits unnecessary. The air in Polish cities is breathable even in winter, and in summer we are not afraid of drought and lack of water. And instead of armaments, we spend money on health care and equalizing opportunities for children and young people. All this may be, however, I will put it between fairy tales....

Den gröna framtiden
I would like to see a future where a major change has been made for the benefit of the environment and the future of the planet. Solar, wind and hydro power have replaced fossil fuels. Buildings, houses, etc. are equipped to be self-sufficient both in terms of energy and basic commodities such as potatoes and the like. Public transportation has switched completely to electric vehicles and there are incredible high-speed trains that can compete with flights between major cities.

When I wake up, the machines prepare the breakfast I usually have (coffee, toast and a piece of fruit). My clothes are ready and are automatically put on me. I take public transport, which flies fast and allows me to get to work quickly. It's not very sustainable, but it's practical. Cycling has become an activity that's losing ground because it's not as fast. Society is going faster and faster. Everything is computerized and doesn't allow for much social interaction, and that's the problem. As for family life, it's still all together in the same house, but that doesn't really make it feel like a family, as everyone is more isolated in front of an electrical device that occupies their free time.
