2040 could be a very different world from today, depending on how we advance in technology, society and the environment.

1. Technology and Daily Life
• Advanced AI: AI assistants will be almost like humans in their ability to understand and anticipate our needs.
• Virtual and Augmented Reality: Work, education and entertainment will be highly immersive.
• Personalized Medicine: Genetic editing and nanotechnology could cure many diseases.
• Automation and Robots: Many work tasks will be automated, with humans focusing on creativity and innovation.

2. Society and Economics
• Hybrid Work or Less Work: Perhaps we work fewer hours thanks to automation, with more time for leisure and personal development.
• Universal Basic Income: If automation replaces many jobs, some countries could implement a basic income for everyone.
• Smart Cities: Connected infrastructure, autonomous transport and clean energy dominating the urban landscape.

3. Environment and Energy
• Climate change: If we act well, we could have a world with clean energy and less pollution. If not, we could be dealing with more frequent weather disasters.
• Space Colonization: Perhaps there are bases on the Moon and Mars, with space exploration at its best.
• Sustainable food: Vertical crops, laboratory-grown meat and sustainable alternatives will be normal.

It all depends on how we make decisions in the coming years, as I don't see myself able to predict something that many variables influence.

Global warming has stopped, temperatures are falling again, hurray! Cars run on hydrogen and solid-state batteries, one charge lasts 2000 km. Plastic has been largely banned. The internet giants have been put in their place and must act in the same way as public broadcasters. The global population has been shrinking for 15 years. Most plastic has been fished out of the sea.

Budućnost održive energije

I want fossil fuels to be a thing of the past, and renewable sources from sun, wind and hydro to cover everything. From households to industry. Solar panels on the roofs of every building give us energy independence. Then the air would be clean, the oceans would be protected and climate change would be stopped. Electric cars and public transport are used. People are becoming more aware of the importance of respecting nature and we are living much healthier lives.

even if it is utopian to write anything about a future that is impossible for me to achieve ( given my age), a dream for my children and mine I might have, to halve the extravagance and selfishness, the thirst for money and power, to live without tax and financial oppression , politicians by the people, in an honest and true way, to try to leave a still livable and enjoyable earth to our grandchildren, to wake up from this deep sleep caused by these vile overlords of a world that is NOT theirs.

Ma ville

I had a dream, the dream of cities that look like villages, islets of trees, plants that separate neighborhoods, more hlm, residences, houses with gardens, collective gardens, plantations of fruit trees and of course, people know each other, help each other, exchange barter, furniture, clothes, food ... there are children playing on the street, they are safe, neighbors monitor them, there is an important associative life and investment, we feel responsible for our "neighborhood-village"
