optimismo o posible realidad?

2040, more than two decades ago that there are no armed conflicts in the world, an entente has been reached between the different countries so that neither wars nor invasions occurred. There is a global pact in which there are no weapons, neither at the country level nor at the particular level. Monetary funds have been created to boost the development of underdeveloped countries, to invest in the creation of food production, conservation of flora and fauna, and without migratory movements to seek a good future that would not be necessary because in their own countries they would have a future. As for the global situation, it has been achieved that the pollution of waters, both fluvial and maritime, there are no longer "continents" of plastic islands. The marine fauna has recovered with the improvement of the recovered state of the oceans and rivers. It has been achieved that global warming stopped at first and was recovering the previous temperatures, so that, both the Arctic, Antarctica and all glaciers achieved the levels of before global warming. It has recovered by decreasing air pollution. Fossil fuels are a memory of the past. Global compulsive consumption has receded. Cities are an environment in which to live healthier. For all the achievements and advances, mortality from various contaminations has decreased considerably.

Europe would be united, France would have a responsible government without all the current lefties! which would control the migratory flow and in addition would take decisions quickly in order to make things advance without having laws or associations which prevent the good functioning of the society, reform of the constitution, in-depth reform of justice, dissolution of various commissions which cost France and brings nothing! in short there is work!

Hlfe im Alltag
I would like an automated world for this time. I can organize my mobility without any special effort. Public transport can be used everywhere and at any time at low cost. Energy is available to everyone in sufficient quantities and at a reasonable price. Sufficient living space is available to everyone. Shopping can be done from home without any problems. Deliveries are made directly to the apartment. Cultural life is accessible to everyone.

Mildere tijden
I walk down a sunny street in Utrecht, where children sit on benches with their noses deep in books. Not because they have to, but because stories inspire them. In 2030, people realized that technology is great, but it shouldn't kill imagination. So there were reading squares everywhere, interactive libraries and writers telling schools how stories could change the world. Meanwhile, the walls of new homes were literally growing. We discovered how to make building materials from CO₂ from the air, combined with bio-concrete that regenerates itself. This is how we solve climate problems while building sustainable homes. In healthcare, something extraordinary has happened. Robots and AI are taking over tasks, but not at the expense of humanity. Care workers actually have more time for patients. Everyone is seen, heard and helped. And perhaps best of all: people have become milder. We have learned that working together is more rewarding than winning. A smile on the street is normal again, and granting is more important than owning. This is Europe, 2050. And it feels good.

Utopia kommt ein Stück näher
I would like to see the conflict between economy and ecology overcome by 2040. Companies will no longer have to strive for extreme profit, but will be rewarded for sustainable production. In addition, products produced in this way are subsidized by the state so that almost everyone can buy them. The neo-liberal economic ideas have finally been consigned to the dustbin and no one would think of following the capitalist ideas any more. In addition, the social systems have been harmonized so that the major gaps have been closed and no one has to work beyond the age of 65. The professional civil service has been abolished and only a few essential professions (police, fire department, judiciary) still have civil servants in the necessary positions. Private health insurance has been abolished and transferred to the statutory system so that all employees pay equally into the social security system and stability is guaranteed. Parliaments have shrunk to reasonable sizes (Bundestag 301 members, the rest staggered according to population up to a maximum of 49) and the associated bureaucracy has also shrunk. The money could be used for sensible projects to reduce legal regulations, so that digitalization could also be decisively advanced.
