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

Nice
In 2040 the feature is more peaceful in every level of imagination, no wars are present in the world, there is no violence or abuse of any kind. Everyone is minding their own business, but thinking like community and about how their decisions effect the life of thousands, if not now than in the future. Kindness is back in style and is paying an important role in everyones life. It's nice to live in 2040.

I wish for this time, which I will obviously no longer experience, that there are no more criminal and illegal foreigners living in our country, that the foreigners have integrated themselves into our country and all work and are no longer just in the pocket of the state.

Lepší svet
I imagine 2025 as follows. People will no longer eat in the normal way. Food will be replaced by pills or liquid food. Cars and other means of transport will cease to exist - their replacement will be a teleportation system that can teleport a person anywhere. It will work just like navigation. Overall, there will be less crime in the world to prevent evil. Death has a completely different meaning. In 2040, one can pay for the “extension of life.” by letting oneself be frozen.

I wish that we had a healthy environment, that we were financially procured, that there was healthy food and peace in the world. I also want to make housing more accessible and to have more children, as the situation here is velminst. I also see the turmoil that year.
