Lev friskt och i frid

After several peace agreements, conflicts between several countries have subsided. Technology has advanced to the point where we are no longer destroying our environment. Clean water is available to 100% of Europeans, but so is clean air. People can travel and work freely within the EU. People are happy and content because all countries are equally well off. No one feels the need to flee their country. Children get free education. Food is organic and locally produced. People can travel across the world quickly with no negative impact on the environment. People are helpful. Because there are no major differences in quality of life, there is less hatred towards other ethnic groups and it is peaceful. No threat of war. Of course, there are still diseases and mental health problems. But research is better and so is understanding and treatment. The UN and the EU work well together. Working days are shorter and the quality of life has improved significantly. Violent crime has decreased due to improved quality of life for most people. Of course, there is still some bribery, but it has decreased. People are more accepting and curious about other cultures. Terrorist attacks are decreasing as technology and research make it easier to identify risk factors. Since education is easily accessible, disinformation is reduced.

Un monde en paix
What I want for the future is security, respect, a green and clean planet, a good education for children at school. Food autonomy. Strengthen our borders and our army. Cars with solar panels and houses with them. Recycle wastewater and desalinate. Put hedges back in the fields. Help our farmers adapt to changing crops. Encourage innovative companies.

transports collectifs
In 2040, if I'm still alive, I'll be almost 90. But, given my average health, I'll surely be dead, as will many other animals and humans, given current pollution and climate degradation, if it weren't for the murderous and warlike madness of the so-called humans who outbid us. But if we give up our egoism, in particular by abandoning individual means of transport such as the fossil-powered car or the all-too-easy airplane, we could develop numerous modes of public transport - trains, streetcars, buses and coaches - and recreate a dense enough network to encourage useful or leisure travel, as well as favoring transport by boat instead of airplane. All this can be developed by collectivizing the means to produce them. One of my grandmothers, almost 111, could still jokingly say: "I've lived through 3 centuries, the 19th, 20th and 21st", because she lived a healthy life, almost self-sufficiently with her husband, wounded in the 1914-18 war. On the other hand, at the age of 10, between the years 1900 and 1910, she remembered being amazed by her first automobile trip when a wealthy neighbor drove her 2 kilometers from school to home. At the same time, the students took turns carrying a log of wood in their bags to heat the school in winter. She would surely be sorry to know that today this "Wonder" has contributed to the destruction of the Earth. Or to learn, as I did, belatedly that the American industrialists of the early days of the automobile bought up public means of transport, only to abandon and destroy them immediately to develop their own financially juicy industries, and that the Europeans followed suit. My father, born in 1920, could still take 2 or 3 local trains or streetcars as a child, with connections, to travel 40 kilometers from Dunois to Perche-Gouët". We can recreate this spirit, this frugality and good living, even this joy of public transport.

Pomerne jasná a pravde podobne úspešná
My future in the EU depends on the opportunities I take. I want to travel, learn and work in different countries to gain experience and broaden my horizons. The EU offers freedom of movement so I can study at prestigious universities or find a job that fulfils me. It is also important to be actively involved in society and contribute to its development. I believe that the EU will continue to encourage innovation and cooperation between countries, which will allow me to move forward. My future is in my hands and I intend to make the most of it.

Empathie im Miteinander
In a better future, people will have more empathy again. We have got to grips with the problem by confronting men with their feelings again and getting them to deal with them. That's why there is less crime, because socialization is finally better. Equality makes the world a safer and happier place.
