Maailma hengittää taas!

2040 is a turning point in world history. We have been working together for 20 years. As a result of these efforts, re-freezing has been observed in polar glaciers. The Gulf Stream continues to flow and keeps the Nordic climate tolerable. The amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide has decreased. Thank you for making the Brazilian and Asian rainforests grow and function as the lungs of the world. Invasive alien species spread to new areas are returning to their original habitats. The number of wildfires in previous years has decreased and the number of tropical hurricanes has been lower than in previous years. All this, now and in the years to come, has been made possible by the collective effort of the peoples of the world for a common world. A world that is only on loan.
The senseless frenzy of increasing the production of all products has ceased and produces only the blood that the sustainable production capacity of the Earth makes possible. Recycling is well underway on continents and in countries where recycling has not taken place in the past. The world's seas, rivers and waterways have recovered from the enormous plastic waste that has been sown in them, thanks to advanced technology and awareness for the good of our waterways.

Zurück zur Steinzeit
The future will belong to those who have money and power. You can already see this today and this development will be irreversible. Democracies will gradually become part of history. Climate change is much more advanced than we thought and there are wars over land and water and crops.

Humanity would pay attention to the environment and wildlife. Political decisions would be made with the desire to have the least impact on nature. There would be no more terrorist acts and our children could feel safe. Life would be peaceful.

After graduation I decided to stay here at my home, I remember very well when my parents were forced to choose between a better quality of life, and the most dear affections such as family and roots. Today fortunately it is no longer so, I can safely decide to carry out my profession in any European state and receive the same salary, but above all to be sure that the quality of my life will be the same everywhere. My technical knowledge is equally recognized, and the chances of making a career (while still wanting to start a family) are the same, I just have to decide if I want to stay here or start a new adventure. When I talk about it with mine, I see their eyes become shiny, because they know that anyway I will be happy and I will not have remorse not having to accept compromises. Today I witness many acquaintances who (even if in the last years of work) return to where they were born, will retire and will be serene. It's great to be able to decide: If you're a traveler and you don't have to become one.

Srečna in svobodna Evropa v prihodnost
In 2040, Europe was developed sustainably, using only environmentally friendly energy sources for electricity production, which are, of course, renewable. Most houses are equipped with a smart management system that optimises the use of energy as much as possible. The air is clean, we have stopped global warming, man is brother to man racism and we have eradicated discrimination
