My easy day out in 2040

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I wakeup to a buzzing and nice sounding super phone. It is easy to wake up when there are birds chirping all around you in an easy and pleasant voice. I await the payment of my salary, and today is a special day because it is a 10 th year of when we started using digital euro. It has singnificaly reduced the lag time between transactions and the banks are almost not existent anymore. They were just ripping us off. Because with digital euro, you can earn dividends when puting it away in monthly quarterly or yearly dividend baskets. Last year i saved enough of coins to buy me a brand me mid tier fast and super smart phone. Soon i will be heading to work. It is one of those days where we are encouraged to visit the employers headquarters and attend some meetings there. Last time i was there was last week on friday. The future is bright and we do not need to work so hard anymore, as all the hard work has been replaced by AI robots. Oh and i forgot to mention, with digital euro, we got the standrad minimal income, which means you are guaranteed to get the minimum living expenses payed off by the government. If you work all the money is extra, for all the extra goodies in life. Yes Life Is good. Now if only we could solve the climate change on time, it wouldn't be a nightmare to life in aolmost bunkers of our houses. We had it hard these last years. The nature has gone wild with extreme hurricanes, storms, and heat and cold waves. But I am optimistic because financially we are all insured. Thats was mandated by the government, if insurance companies wanted to stay the same way as before.

Nature
In the future I see (or more like I steongly hope to see) people loving nature and appreciating it more, showering it in love. People taking their time to nurture nature, planting more trees and plants, taking care of them. I see our nature triving, the world map looking more green with each passing day. I see more people talking about how beautiful our surroundings are and how important it is to keep it that way.

Umweltfreundliche Zukunft
In my future, more emphasis would be placed on the climate. There would be more research into renewable energy, the lifespan of technical products would be significantly longer and they could be repaired cheaply everywhere. Consumption would be sustainable and meat would be significantly more expensive. On the other hand, more emphasis is placed on environmentally friendly, healthy alternatives. Rainforest deforestation is banned and a sustainable alternative for wood is found. All in all, we respect nature more.

Es kann nur besser werden...
I urgently wish for a peaceful Europe, not only free of "special operations" at the borders, but also of terror within the borders. I would also like to see good living conditions, clean air, safe strolling through the cities, which would mean a massive reduction in individual, motorized traffic. Cruelty towards animals will hopefully be a thing of the past, so people will live mainly vegan, which will also help the climate. I am not as negative about its development as the mainstream (I prefer mild winters). I also very much hope that Europe has not succumbed to Islam and that the totalitarian nature of this ideology is recognized and combated in the meantime. Technological developments and inventions will make life easier in many areas over the next 15 years. I very much hope that the EU will not regulate everything to death, but will provide opportunities for new developments. I look forward to the beautiful and pleasant things that are to be expected!

Un monde idéal après des années catastrophique sous tous les plans
What a joy to have returned to a world where there is no more insecurity, no more aggression, no more war or terrorism. Everything can be recycled, and we've found a definitive solution to global warming. Full employment has returned, and there's work for everyone, thanks to the decision to apply selective and measured immigration. The justice system is uncompromising, and no one wants to repeat a crime because the penalties are so exemplary.
