I live happily on the shore. At the end of winter, I can put my small sailboat back in the water to go back fishing and enhance our food. All winter we ate what we sown and harvested. We live comfortably in a self-contained house (roof panel, water recovery). The entire global power grid has been shut down since the various wars. Everyone must manage alone or in community. The more no industry, the more nothing works; everything has to be done again, we find ourselves at the same level as our grandparents in their time. The world has been destroyed by wars, artificial intelligence. The positive aspect is the return of nature and nature, the work of its hands, safety and community life.

Sustainable World
In 2040, I envision a world where climate change is no longer a looming threat but a challenge we successfully mitigated through innovation, policy, and collective action. The planet has shifted towards carbon neutrality, with industries, transportation, and energy systems fully powered by renewable sources like solar, wind, and advanced fusion energy. Fossil fuels are a relic of the past, and net-zero emissions are a global standard. Cities are green and self-sufficient, featuring vertical forests, smart grids, and sustainable architecture designed to maximize efficiency. Electric and hydrogen-powered transportation has eliminated air pollution, making urban environments healthier. Rural areas thrive with regenerative agriculture, restoring soil health and biodiversity while ensuring food security for a growing population. Climate adaptation has strengthened global resilience—coastal regions are safeguarded with nature-based solutions like mangrove restoration and artificial coral reefs, reducing the impact of rising sea levels. Communities worldwide have access to clean water, thanks to widespread desalination and atmospheric water harvesting technologies. Education and climate literacy are embedded in everyday life, empowering citizens to maintain sustainable lifestyles. Governments, corporations, and individuals work together with a shared sense of responsibility for the planet. Environmental justice prevails, ensuring that vulnerable populations no longer bear the brunt of climate disasters. The world of 2040 is proof that bold action, global cooperation, and technological breakthroughs can create a thriving, sustainable future for all.

Alles anders
By 2040, our world will have changed completely. We will all meet with love and respect. Something like national borders, foreigners, anti-Semitism will be a thing of the past. With the same respect and love, we will also pay attention to all animals and the earth. Hardly any garbage is produced. Living and working in harmony with Mother Nature. Animals are rarely eaten or dairy products are consumed. Wur have self-driving/flying cars. Or come from A to B in a different way. Exploitation, oppression, power struggle and so much more will have (almost) dissolved. It will be a great life. 😊

Living in a Trump Box
Donald Trump in collaboration with his tech billionaire friends has solved the eternal life dilemma. Trump is now in charge of the USE (United States of Earth). When people reach sixteen years of age they are shipped if to a mega factory, as a benefit however they are given a brand new prefabricated cardboard house to life in. These houses don’t have any windows, just a door and a large led screen that projects pleasing images, interspersed with subliminal messages from the ruling oligarchs. These messages are now allowed now that Trump has an abolished advertising restrictions, but only for companies with a net worth of more than 500 trillion Earth Dollars…..

Everyone, including politicians and other government officials, will be treated equally under the law.
It feels strange to write in the 21st century, however, I hope that by 2040, everyone, including politicians and other government officials, will be treated equally under the law. Democratic and political institutions function in the interests of the country's residents rather than solely for the benefit of individual politicians (or the businesses of their family members). Democratic values are fostered, and the state does not encroach upon people's rights and freedoms of the country's residents in any way. Statesmen are well-educated and highly respected members of society who hold their service mission on the first place. Innovations, private businesses and education are encouraged and supported by the state. Household services are automated (robots as everyday assistants). State systems are interested in the development and prosperity of the country's residents. The State is neither heard nor seen in everyday life, as it is maximally effective in its work (economically and organizationally).
