Oh, How I Would Love Such a Life

People would finally understand how important it is to save nature. People would support recycling and would be buying less things that they don't really need. Vegetarian options would be more available in cafes and restaurants. People would respect nature and look at it as a gift. There would be a stronger sense of community. Institutions would take social problems more seriously and try to help the less fortunate as best as they can, not ignore the problems. People would be friendlier and more supportive of each other. We would use renewable energy and produce less toxic waste from factories. People would more use public transport and not only use their personal cars when not absolutely needing it which could reduce emissions. Climate change needs would slow down and endangered species would thrive. Clean drinking water and affordable housing would be more accessible to the general public. There would be better working conditions and a lower unemployment rate. There would be work and life balance and people would find time to volunteer and enjoy their families and hobbies.

MOLTA PIU' CULTURA
IAC WOULD LIKE THERE TO BE MORE CULTURAL PROGRAMS-THEATER, CONCERTS AND MUSEUM VISITS WITH AFFORDABLE PRICES FOR EVERYONE. ESPECIALLY I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOUNG PEOPLE FROM THE EARLIEST SCHOOL GRADES BEING DIRECTED TO THESE EVENTS. YOUNG PEOPLE ARE VERY SET ON SOCIAL PROGRAMS SO YOU COULD USE THESE PROGRAMS TO DIRECT THEM TO MORE CULTURE.

In 2040, I live in a United Europe where the current nationality borders have been erased, and are regional borders instead. From north to south, and from east to west, we are connected by high-speed railways that allow us to travel from northern Sweden to southern Europe and vice versa in less than 24 hours. We do not see immigration from non-European countries as a problem, but as a strengthening of our society both economically and culturally. My grandchildren have received a good education and have the freedom to work and raise a family wherever they want. All this is again utopia if I look at my own development from the mid-20th century. and how everything has accelerated. Only we can stop Trump, Musk, Putte, Xi and their supporters who are currently destroying what has been built since the end of the war in 1945.

Postapokaliptična EU
Prihodnost evrope naj bi bila svetla, vendar se zeleni prehod zmeraj bolj pozna na naših denarnicah, ki so že drugače tako napadene od infllacije in t.i. shrinkflacije. Kupna moč pada iz dneva v dan, srednji sloj izpareva, počasi in konstantno. Politika EU vodi vse po domače povedano v rit. Zmeraj bolj so zaščitene manjšine, domačini zmeraj izvisijo pred prišleki. Za leto 2040 si lahko samo predstavljamo kakšno postapokaliptično utopijo, kot jih poznamo iz mnogih survival games. Nebi me čudilo, če bi za novi blatnik na motorju mogel plačati mehaniku z kakšno čudno valuto, kot je na primer 10 palcev, ki so nekdaj pripadali rivalski tolpi. Prihodnost evrope bo zelo temna.

Drosmes un sirsnības nākotne
Es vēlētos, lai nākotne Eiropā un Latvijā būtu droša un attīstoša. Es vēlētos, lai Eiropā un Rietumvalstīs būtu iznīdēts un absolūti nepieņemams imperiālisms, autoritārisms un totalitārisms. Šajā nākotnē Tramps, Masks un Putins ir plaši saprasti kā nicināmi un zemiski cilvēki. Absolūtais vairums cilvēku apzinās no kādas tumsas un briesmām ir sanācis izvairīties un ir pateicīgi izlēmībai, drosmei un empātijai, kas šo ir ļāvušas paveikt. Tāpat ir audzis patiess patriotisms un kopienas sajūta, kas vēsturiski manā valstī, īpaši lielākās pilsētās, ir bijis problemātisks padomju laikam raksturīgās gļēvulības, represiju un apolitiskuma dēļ. Beidzot ir izdevies ierobežot alkohola un azartspēļu lobiju. Es gribētu, lai šajā nākotnē tiek saprasts, ka uzlabot savu kopienu un vidi var tikai sniedzot kādu ieguldījumu vai upuri paši. Es gribu, lai cilvēki iegulda sevī, un viņu apkārtējie no tā saņem dividendes. Es ceru, ka sirsnība, radošums, cieņa, iejūtība un rūpes būs ne tikai epizodiski atzītas, bet fundamentāli svarīgas īpašības mūsu sabiedrībā. Es ceru, ka cilvēki sapratīs, ka palīdzot citiem viņi gūst ko tādu, ko citādi nav iespējams gut.
