It is the year 2040 and Europe has become a place where harmony between technology and nature is the norm. The day begins in a small coastal town in Spain, where the sun shines through smart windows that adjust the temperature of the home without the need for external energy. The houses are now built with recycled materials and each has a system that converts air into energy.

Only 15 years ago, in 2025, the situation was alarming. The climate crisis and natural disasters threatened the survival of big cities. The transition to renewable energy was the turning point: Governments, businesses and citizens came together to reduce carbon emissions and restore the ecological balance.

Today, the oceans are cleaner, and green areas in cities have multiplied. Agriculture is completely vertical and is carried out inside buildings, with systems that ensure that all food is local and sustainable. People travel across Europe on high-speed trains that traverse breathtaking landscapes, powered by solar and geothermal energy, with no carbon footprint. This future is the result of a collective effort to rebuild a more just and balanced world.

Hopefully such a world in 15-25 years

Stipri ir konkurencinga Europa be migrantų
I would like Europe to be safe, there would be no more migrants who break the law and exploit Europe's legal loopholes and people's goodness. I would like the European economy to be the strongest in the world, with manufactured goods meeting standards and being a sign of cocube in the world. I would like Europe to have a political backbone and a greater concern for the people of Europe and their well-being

Europa mojego dzieciństwa w przyszłości
A safe and strong Poland, open to each other, at the same time nurturing and defending its traditions and cultures. International exchanges, cooperation between countries but guarding their integrity. Modern and developing, at the same time defending against giving one's life fully to digital values. Full of greenery and caring for what the earth has given us, defending the environment. Ensuring decent living conditions for citizens, accessible housing and decent wages, defending democracy.

Spokojený svět
By 2040, our society and that of the world will be so prosperous that people will not be reduced to scams, thefts, tunnelling, or even wars. The land will belong equally to the rich and the poor. We will protect nature, not devastate it, because we will finally realize what it can give us if we take good care of it and protect it. People will not starve because there will be enough food for everyone. It will be a world of abundance and satisfaction for all, both for humans and animals. We will not envy each other because everyone will have the basics and it will depend only on each of us how we arrange it. It will be a world where one can live happily, and for diseases for which there are no medicines yet, immediate diagnosis and treatment will be possible.
