People would be happy to live, no matter how poor they are. Executives would not ruin people.Everyone would get a decent income and there would be no need to count what you eat at the end of the month. People don't hate each other, they help each other. We don't envy each other. Everyone would have a chance for a better life, for peace.

In 2040 I would like to have as a main concern to have achieved equality among all people at least in terms of human rights. In a second phase I would like to see economic equality and a reduction in the wealth gap together with unemployment rates across Europe. More consideration should be given to animal rights and the world should have become a safer place for everyone overall!

In 2040, countries show solidarity with each other and people live well. The countries of Europe solve their problems peacefully and civilly through debate and communication. They don't always agree, but they've learned that if everyone gives in a little, it's beneficial. As there is dialogue, there are no wars and populations are richer. They have more economic power. People saw how the rulers behaved towards each other, with solidarity and without hatred, and they followed suit. People became less racist and more supportive of each other. This made people happier and richer. Richer monetarily because there was help between them and happier because there was no hatred or envy or petty intrigue to haunt their days.

Let us imagine that I am in 2040, and that I live in a future characterised by sustainability, balance and social justice. A topic that for me would be crucial for improvement is climate change and the way in which society uses energy and natural resources. Ideally, in 2040, the world would certainly become rapidly decarbonised. The green and renewable energy market would be dominant, and fossil fuels would certainly be eliminated. Solar panels, wind turbines and other clean energy technologies would be widely available and standard in everyday life. Buildings would be flooded with green, with smart systems for recycling, efficient use of water and minimising waste. Transport would be 100% electric, and public transport would be efficient and accessible. Self-driving cars and other technologies would enable a freer human protocol, reducing congestion and pollution. People would live in buildings that are designed to offer a high quality of life, with an emphasis on cycle parking, pedestrian zones and smart buildings that use a minimum amount of energy. The society would be less divided, with an emphasis on justice, social justice and access to education and health care for all. The health and well-being of the eaters would not only be focused on physical health, but there would also be more efforts to initiate mental health, social and emotional support. This future would be marked by people's connection with nature and interpersonal honesty, and by the development of technologies that do not take into account the environment. The key promise would be to educate all of us about the importance of a sustainable life, where we would actively work to reduce our negative impact on the planet, or to improve inter-human relations in a global society.
