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?

2040. The Rat is ready in 5 years time. The desolation of the territory is terrible. People are returning to their hearths little by little. The sewage is rising and the earth is turning. The country is making various efforts to rebuild its population. We survivors are wearing a heavy burden on our souls. Nationalism and hatred are permanent. A spirit of optimism is emerging. My son is going to college and I am finally going to peace. My wife has gone into business for herself. We are living solidly. I hope that my health will serve me for another 10 years until I see my son's wedding.

The castles have turned green, covered with trees that clean the air and grow food. Energy comes exclusively from renewable sources, from the sun and the wind. Public transport is dominated by electric vehicles, but traffic is quiet and ecologically attractive. The oceans are clean of plastic, and biodegradable materials are rapidly replacing traditional plastics. Every home uses recycling facilities for water and waste, creating a social economy. Rivers and lakes are clean, and the world of life is flourishing again. The semi-private sector has moved to castles, where food is grown on vertical farms, reducing the need for the ritual of the earth. Food is local, healthy and free from waste. Education plays a key role - children are taught about sustainability from a very early age. People are aware of their habits and take an active part in the planet's environment. Advanced technology uses artificial intelligence to manage resources and combat climate change. In such a world, nature and people live in harmony. Together we have overcome the greatest challenges and created a sustainable future for all. Is this the world we aspire to?

By 2040, I want robots to stop taking people's jobs. I want to see trees not cut down just to make more roads. I would like to see more garbage cans and people learning how to handle gas. I would like to see all animal torturers and pedophiles cease to exist , and all animals have a good loving 3lete.

So far, it's not just scientists working on the effects of the environment who have advocated for change, but the rest of us too. Because they have realised that we cannot destroy what we have been given and must pass on to posterity. There is less pollution, people have become more conscious, they don't waste water and other things. They use only what they need. There is a growing emphasis on renewable energy and recycling.
