Responsible and informed

The topics that I see as encompassing a lot of aspects of our life are communication and transparency. I think whether we are journalists or not, people in my country have lost the ability to communicate properly on heated topics - from climate change, the pandemic, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and etc. Discussion has become ever more difficult because of many reasons but some key ones include 1) people heavily mistaking opinions for facts; 2) people being unaware of how strong disinformation is and what are its goals 3) lack of empathy and the desire to listen, not only to express your own viewpoint and try to convince the others. Hence, whether we talk about the state of democracy, media freedom, environmental protection and how we imagine them to be better in 2040, I think an improved information space is vital to that.

Klima First!
In 2040, I would like to see a climate policy to improve our climate and no more sham debates. This includes climate-friendly mobility, perhaps with hydrogen-powered vehicles. Personally, I hope that I will still be fit and healthy enough in 20 years' time to be able to go on outings with my grandchildren.

Czas na oświecenie
I imagine that in 2040, most people will be driving around in zero-emission cars, we will wise up and plant forests instead of cutting them down! We'll eat less meat, and we'll start repairing appliances and clothes again rather than making new ones! I dream that people will be more empathetic and directed at other people and not at things. We will focus our attention on our inner self and not on the shell we wear. We will return to the wisdom of our ancestors, which we are heavily disregarding at the moment.

Dark dark future
People no longer travel by plane, but by other, more personal means of transport. Water will be a problem, because its reserves have been exhausted, although devices have already been developed that extract water from the air, but it has deteriorated the air quality so much in big cities that people had to move away from them many years ago. New natural resources have been found in nature, which has eased people's food shortages. Many millions of people have died from new deadly epidemics that are developed in laboratories and are also developing in nature. Apartments have been built on the moon where people go on vacation. A few satellites are still searching for a permanently habitable planet. The thickness of the atmosphere has been improved, although it is really thin, many people also die from the cancers caused by it. Money has lost its value, new payment methods have been developed.
