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?

A place without the presence of fossil fuels, with clean air and no trace of pollution. Cities with more green spaces, more community gardens, fewer vehicles. Finally, tension and confrontation were abandoned as a way of doing politics, false news was not published with impunity, without serious criminal consequences for the authors. The recommendations of scientists and experts are heeded; They no longer influence the decision-making that affects us all the large corporations that only pursued their own benefit and increase without any control their economic benefits and without contributing to improving the lives of people on the planet.

Since I am studying special education, education is a very important field for me. I imagine that in 2040, there will be a much greater use of digital tools that facilitate teaching and learning, but would not be very good for children's health. I also hope that there will be more teachers and specialists in the preschool institution by then and that their salaries will be sufficient for a comfortable life.

Vernunft für den Frieden
The forests have grown again. Nature is about to recover, humans and animals have found a way to live together without exterminating each other. People have become more peaceful. After the great collapse in 2025, there was a victory of reason, everyone realized that one can only lead a good life together.

Utopia
Stable policy, good conditions for my offspring. The environment should be intact and global warming under control. In an ideal world, more attention is paid to our earth and less to profit. We live in a benevolent coexistence and are tolerant of others. Foreigners pay attention to the culture of the countries they visit or emigrate to, and aggression is not left out on other people.
