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.

Tout va bien dans le meilleur des mondes

For me, the future would be a world without war, with everyone getting on well, everyone getting enough to eat, no more fatal diseases in the foreseeable future thanks to advances in medicine, artificial intelligence and so on, tightly controlled immigration and the lifelong sheltering of all these criminals.

Nur geträumt

Humanity has come to its senses. We now have enough agriculture in Germany again and can feed ourselves, are independent and free. Asparagus is only available in asparagus season and strawberries only in summer. And tomatoes taste like tomatoes again. We get them directly from the farmer in the farm store or in small corner stores where we like to stop for a chat with the neighbors. Where there used to be huge supermarkets, there are now large playgrounds for our little ones, free-range enclosures for man's best friends and hospitals. We have leveled and renaturalized many highways or converted them into local recreation areas. We are currently in the process of dismantling residential silos with more than five storeys and creating new living space. This will keep us busy for some time yet, after which we will turn off the alarm clock and wake up from our dream.

The EU collapsed. NATO ceased to exist. The trial of liberal leaders who had destroyed the EU economy

The EU collapsed, with only a few Old World countries remaining. NATO ceased to exist. Parties concerned about national security and the self-identity of their countries came to power. The trial of liberal leaders who had destroyed the EU economy to please transnational corporations took place. Many Eastern European countries found the strength to recognize the sanctions against the Russian Federation as destructive for them. And so they made peace with Russia, and many even sent requests to join the Eurasian Union. After the trial of liberal politicians of the 1920s, Germany began to recover economically. The Nord Stream gas pipelines were restored. Under the leadership of Germany and France, the creation of the European Armed Forces began. The construction of the New Silk Road was completed. Some countries returned to the idea of

Meine Zukunft

People in government must prove that they have a basic knowledge of their position and are not appointed according to party affiliation. Laws that are passed must also be applied and not become ineffective with thousands of exceptions. As far as transport is concerned, it would be good if there were still a certain individual share, but for the most part via a well-developed public network that also takes into account all so-called marginalized groups (the elderly, the disabled, the financially disadvantaged).
