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.

Everyone has a job, there are no unemployed or homeless people. Wars and conflicts have stopped all over the world. Children and young people are studying in montessori schools, where they are gaining useful knowledge for their lives. The economy is growing, new factories and workplaces are being built. Borders are secure, migrants have returned to their countries, and it is safe to travel. There is plenty of greenery everywhere and places where people can relax with their families after work.

How will people live in 2040? Will they keep the peace and strive for it? There will be AI-supported technology, many robots will do the work that people still do today. do today. The earth will be a few degrees warmer, the weather will be more extreme and unpredictable. Disasters will increase. The USA will no longer be the world power, other governments will will come. I hope that people will do something for the climate so that the earth will last a long time and people can live on it.

In my future, AI is the protagonist. I imagine it will be present much more than now in our daily note, in everything we do. There will be a lot more automated things and we will interact much more with machines than with people.
