It's 2040, and the country's average temperatures have risen, leading to more frequent summer heat waves and warmer winters. Droughts have become more frequent, causing problems for agriculture, especially grain and vegetable production. Farmers had to adapt their cultivation methods and introduce more efficient irrigation methods. Floods have also become more frequent due to the rapid melting of snow in the mountains. On the positive side, however, there has been a great development of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, and most cities have become greener.

This better future could well be one in which many things are handled more fairly. Those who do not work are not entitled to support from the community. With every year of productive work, i.e. work in any form as we know it, not only does the entitlement to support increase in the event of unemployment, but also the entitlement to maintenance when the working age is reached. Refugees also only receive maintenance if they work and contribute to the GNP of the respective state. There is only ever one citizenship and not several. Referendums, as in Switzerland, are part of everyday life. The influence of citizens or active political groups has more effect and impact on the development of the state. Politicians, like any other employee, can be held accountable for their actions and decisions. Cars or gen. Vehicles are allowed to drive at a defined maximum speed on all EU highways, but this is also rigorously monitored. Waste should be paid for according to quantity - polluter pays principle. Ships, whether new or old, should only be allowed to sail emission-free or with filters. The same applies to airplanes. Capital gains tax of at least 35% per year is due from ownership or capital of 5 million euros. More transparency for people in public office with regard to income, sideline income, other posts, etc. A strict cap also applies here. Politicians who govern a nation must have a solid education in economics or law. School dropouts or unskilled workers are not allowed to hold political office. Preservation of existing nature. Radical reforestation of fallow land. Stop building wind turbines and use the existing ones, as many of them are not yet connected to the grid. Photovoltaic surfaces over built-up areas, e.g. over roads, highways and wherever the ground is already sealed, or on all kinds of surfaces. Fields and meadows must remain free and usable for agriculture.

I envision more electric cars, technology on every corner, much more efficient schools for our children. I also hope there will be less war and nuclear weapons in the world. There will be more support for local agriculture in our country and stop just importing. All waste will be recycled and not just piled in landfills. There will be low inflation and people will be able to afford all sorts of things and not live paycheck to paycheck.

I would like to improve the issue of the environment and personal communication between people.I imagine that car traffic will be banned in cities and that instead of parking lots there will be green oases with benches, fountains and playgrounds for children...birds will sing in the treetops...there will be grass and colourful flowers, bees, ladybirds, grasshoppers, butterflies everywhere...the children will play,feed the birds and watch the bugs and the parents will sit on benches,without mobiles and tablets,and talk to other parents...or have picnics in the grass...then in the playground everyone will play football,dodgeball,handball,hide and seek,chase...there will be laughter and relaxation everywhere and no one will be in a hurry.
