In 2050 I am standing on a roof terrace in Amsterdam, where the city skyline has been changed by floating gardens and sustainable skyscrapers that capture energy from the sun and the wind. The canals are now clean and filled with biodiversity, and self-driving boats slide silently past. Traffic on the street has disappeared, replaced by electric vehicles that move quickly and quietly through a network of underground highways. The air is fresh, thanks to decades of global cooperation to drastically reduce CO2 emissions.

Between 2025 and 2050, the transition to renewable energy has accelerated, and the world has learned to work together rather than compete. Climate change is slowly under control, but there is still work to be done. Education is digitised and personalised, with artificial intelligence helping students to follow their own learning path. People no longer work in traditional office gardens; Working from home and flexible working hours have become the norm.

Today I drink coffee from a biodegradable cup, looking at a city that has finally found its balance between technology, nature and people.

Geluk in 2040

We are in 2040. The world has been transformed. Poverty and hunger are a thing of the past. Technology and humanity work together to create a society where everyone has access to healthy food, healthcare and education. We help each other without conditions, driven by empathy and shared responsibility. I walk through a city where people smile, where time is not money but a gift. I have found myself in this connected world, where my talents contribute to the well-being of others. I used to look for my place, now I know that my place is anywhere I can make a difference. Here, in 2040, happiness is not a privilege, but a right for everyone.

Les transports en commun à l’énergie solaire

I'm imagining public transport that would float above people's homes and whose stops would be accessible by ultra-fast elevators, leaving the public highway free for pedestrians. Of course, these vehicles would be solar-powered and therefore non-polluting. Cars and other motorized vehicles would no longer be able to enter the city center, and would instead use the ring roads, where gigantic multi-storey parking lots would provide access to public transport.

Ausweg aus der Klimakrise

I hope that all of humanity will recognize the climate crisis and take it seriously. In 2040, the global community will finally no longer be working independently and against each other, but together to save the world from extinction. Examples: - Reducing or even stopping global warming - Preserving and restoring ecosystems - climate-friendly food production - Developing climate-neutral technologies for transportation

To be in a really future

2025 swipe and I'm in 2040. Nature has barely changed. I leave my home which is now altered with a spherical rotating solar panel roofing. My car that can fly about 1 meter high approaches at my indication by a voice prompt and opens the doors to get in. I am welcomed by a computer voice asking where I want to go. Floating, the ride begins. My car uses hydrogen and is nature friendly. I sink relaxed into the massage seat and hear the messages that were sent to my built-in chip in my body. Where is the nostalgic time of the smartphone. Along the way I see massive drones flying all kinds of messages to customers. There is also a drone on its way perhaps to my home. This will be met by Sittu my house robot who does all the housework like cleaning, cooking and chores. It is weekend and my spouse is already to our daughter and granddaughter. I am now going to pick her up to shop together at the Dixi Tower where you can now do all types of shopping. Gone are the many stores, supermarkets and local grocers. Where is the time of 2025 when you could still cozy up.
