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

Well, as I imagine life in such a distant future, it must take another 15 years until 2040. I'll be you by the time I'm 70, as I imagine this life in 15 years. Well, I would like to build a large heating plant, of course ecological, which would use the energy of the sun and which would produce pr ad and heat for a small price. I would also like to see centers for the development of friendship and care, so that every person, regardless of age, can experience friendship. so that , children are taught in schools how to develop social competences, so that these important values, which were very much cared for by the kid, are returned, i.e. honesty, care, selflessness, empathy, so that people are good and friendly to each other. I also hope that Poland will fight for its position in Europe, and not, as we are now, a backwater, thanks to our politicians who have the interests of the country and the nation somewhere.

That there is peace in the world. It starts on the street that everyone treats everyone with respect. That there are no wars among the peoples. That we get climate change under control and not so much is destroyed by heat, drought and floods. That the economy is on the right track, that all people have good work and that they can afford everything and that prices do not rise to the bottomless.

I want a future where technology and ecology are developed. I wish cars were emission-free. To be electric vehicles, to allow homes to live comfortably and efficiently, while helping to reduce resource consumption. I would like to see health progress and thus increase people's life expectancy.

In 2040, in a sustainable Europe, there will be the opportunity to enjoy your own country and environment with its own culture and customs. Coleur locale is the motto. Countries adhere to local customs, dishes and products. Satisfied with what your own country offers you without choice stress of all sorts.
