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.

Ζωή όπως τα παλιά χρόνια αλλά πιό σύχγρονη
The future would be better if there wasn't so much comfort with technology, yes it's important but we humans can do a lot and without technology you've got all electronics everywhere yes because it makes our lives easier but while on the other hand it doesn't do so much good we have to work, to be able to do things we humans, we don't want to have robots nor electronic money just needs cash, if the cash leaves the coins, it won't be reminiscent of anything from old times as if robots with artificial intelligence grow in jobs it will create a huge problem in communication, in relationships, it won't be normal. We don't want robots at work. We want a normal life to be modern and easier with technology but also to follow the traditions as in the old times. We want traditional food, not machine-ready, we want cars with gasoline and oil fuels, not electric cars with electricity.

Zdravje za vse
In 2040, health is guaranteed to all people equally. This means that the health care you receive does not depend on your financial capabilities. It doesn't depend on how rich or poor you are. All appropriate medicinal products and other known methods of treatment are available, enabled and offered, depending on the diagnosis you are given. These, i.e. diagnoses, are made quickly, at the initial stage of the disease, when the treatment options are still the best. Long queues in healthcare are an unpleasant and depressing history, because of the casework, many of us too quickly lost their loved ones who got sick...

Želja po zdravem življenju
I'll probably have a family and kids by then. Therefore, I would like to live in my house somewhere on the outskirts of the city, where we would have some fruit trees and a garden where we would grow our own vegetables. Our day would consist of regular obligations, such as school and work, and on weekends we would go on a trip somewhere in Slovenia, whether to the hills or to the sea. Despite the crises we experienced in the past, the land would recover, people would be slower, prices would be more affordable. The focus would be on sustainability, the use of transport sharing. We would live in harmony, without scarcity, money would be more evenly distributed between the upper and lower classes. Education would grow even more, knowledge would be highly valued and upgraded to another level.

Svet v ravnotežju: Pot v trajnostno prihodnost
The year 2050. I wake up in a world where stability, peace and sustainability have become fundamental values. I have on my table a report on economic growth based on the green transition – our world is now energy efficient, carbon-free and fully shifted to renewables. I remember how, in 2025-2030, we made drastic decisions that shaped this future. Countries have started investing in sustainable technologies and restructuring industries to meet climate targets, while ensuring steady economic growth. In the years following this transition, we have seen how economies have stabilised, without the crises caused in the past by rising emissions and scarcity of resources. Peace has become a global priority as it has been linked to reducing resource and climate conflict. Through continued cooperation between countries, businesses and civil society, we have overcome challenges and created a world where everyone has been involved in finding solutions to global challenges. As I travel through the city, I see infrastructure designed with the future in mind – green spaces, smart energy grids, carefree operation that supports both our daily lives and long-term stability. Economic power is based on equality and sustainable development, and when I observe how proud people are of their contribution to these changes, I know that together we have shaped a world in which quality of life is as important as preserving the planet for future generations.
