I envision a future in 2040 where the environment has undergone significant improvements. The world has switched to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and hydropower, which has significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Cities are full of green spaces where parks and gardens are accessible to all residents. Efficient recycling technologies have become standard and waste reduction is part of everyday life. Transport is fully electrified, with public transport that is fast, reliable and accessible. Education focuses on environmental awareness, where children learn the importance of protecting nature from an early age. People are more connected to nature and aware of the impact of their actions on the environment.

I wish there was peace all over the world. That we share and no one has to suffer hunger anymore; humanity has climate change under control. It hasn't gotten hotter; there is enough water and everything is growing well; in politics, people are so smart and don't vote for right-wing radicals. There is no Trump and no Putin. All countries are striving for democracy. There is freedom of speech everywhere.

The future is uncertain, but I would like things to be different in the future. The health system to be more complex adapted to the conditions of the European Union doctors to be much better paid given the years of study behind politicians to be well prepared and useful in their job not only as a number but to group so as to adopt laws properly for the country and its development.

Today, there are many processes happening at the same time. Digitalisation is radically transforming the way we live, globalisation is radically transforming the way we work, while climate change is challenging our very existence and the very survival of humanity. Some of these changes are happening fast, while others are taking a long time to take hold. Electricity from renewable sources will be cheaper than fossil fuels by 2020 By 2050, poverty is expected to be eradicated almost everywhere except Africa Personalised medicine, stem cell and nanomedicine, gene editing and artificial intelligence will revolutionise medicine Automation and digitalisation will mean less labour in 2040, but the human factor will still be indispensable.
