The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

2025 was the year when the energy transition began. Before that, energy was produced from fossil fuel, a highly flammable material that produced a great deal of heat that was used to move power generators. Even before fuel, coal was used, which in those days produced just the right amount of energy for the machines of the day. With subsequent industrial revolutions, coal had become insufficient for the energy these new machines needed, so oil took over. It was curious how the industrial revolution of the time always had to use the same method to produce energy and that was to burn a naturally occurring source. Now this obsolete system no longer exists; we are proud to have changed the method of producing energy. No longer destroying and burning, but creating and conserving.

In the social sphere, there will likely be a change in the definition of work, with many traditional professions disappearing, while new ones, related to technology and sustainability, will emerge. I also expect a growing concern for the environment and significant progress in renewable energy, reducing our dependence on nonrenewable resources. It will be a more connected world, but also one that is more aware of global challenges.

The year 2040 has come.Peace everywhere.All states tolerate each other.All the planet is at peace and understanding.One state helps another in times of some difficulties - in times of famine, floods, diseases. There are enough doctors in the Czech Republic.Dentists are paid by the state, so we don't have to pay millions for teeth.And there are enough of them in all regions.Everyone has a doctor and they don't have to be without teeth for a year because they don't have the means. In schools we have to honor the elderly,have respect for the young and the old. The state is judged by its behaviour towards children and old people. And now the old people are unnecessary , and the children do not participate in respect and understanding. And also there will be plenty of cheap housing and electricity.

In the future, mobility across Europe will be easy and ecological, while also taking into account rational pricing. This will allow people to have a wider experience across Europe and a better understanding of different cultures, which will support diversity and understanding of other people and diversity. Europe is joining forces to be greener, making Europe the most ecological continent. This will require a commitment from all countries and the development of science in a more ecological direction. Living conditions have improved everywhere and people are living well. Easy mobility also means that people have better opportunities to move around Europe for work and life.
