Living together in peace

In 20 years life there will be less differences between cities and the countryside. Travelling by train will be effortless and where there is no train there will be people ready to take you on board with their electric car to make sure nobody is using a car alone.
Houses will be sourrounded by colorful gardens cultivated with permaculture principles. Fruits and vegetables as well as the beauty of nature will be shared among members of the community. Fields will be smaller again and organic food will be the norm.
Communities will value the gifts of all generations and cultures, there will be homes for everyone and everything. Climate refugees will be welcomed and integrated in the villages and co-living projects. Humans have time to appreciate the natural world and each other. Capitalism will only be a memory.
I see lots of green, trees, plants, flowers, lots of colors and smiling faces in my future world.

I would like to see easier access to housing in a better future. So that you don't have to collect half your life for a down-payment and pay a mortgage for the rest of your life. That it would be possible to live without worrying about "your place." I wish that in 2040 people, like in the days of our parents' youth, could get together, spend time together and that no one would feel lonely. Now everyone is a "lonely island" and social ties and friendships are increasingly degraded. I wish that in the future someone would pay attention to this problem and that there would be no need, as in the UK, to create a Ministry for Loneliness.

Probably in 2040 I will no longer be there but I hope for all those who will have a Europe of true peace, of true inclusion, of true sharing. More honesty, less violence, more well-being, more equality, more attention to the climate. A true union of all the countries that are part of it, united to improve the continent of Europe!

The EU is economically strengthened and consolidated. As regards military security, the EU has an army responsible for securing and defending the border (so-called professional army). Every EU citizen between the ages of 18 and 25 is obliged to work for 18 months, alternatively in the social sector.

The Europe of the future has emancipated itself from the USA and presents a self-confident and united front to the outside world. Nevertheless, the original European values will not be watered down, but will be resolutely defended against the world's major power blocs. A strong European Union with a strong military potential, but one that is used defensively. Internally, the governments of the individual European countries have learned that a united Europe is the only way to deal with the rest of the world, and the principle of unanimity has been abolished.
