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.

In 2040, I would like to see a world where the balance between technology, the environment and human well-being is finally achieved. Here is my vision for a better future: 1. Technology at the service of humanity •Ethical artificial intelligence: AI is designed to improve everyday life, reduce inequalities and solve complex problems, without threatening jobs or privacy. •Increased health: Serious diseases such as cancer or Alzheimer's have become manageable thanks to advanced medical technologies, accessible to all. •Universal and immersive education: Tools such as virtual reality enable every individual, wherever they are, to access quality education. 2. A restored and preserved environment •**

Green peaceful life.
In 2040, I imagine a Europe that has fully embraced sustainability, inclusivity, and technological harmony. The specific issue I envision being transformed is climate resilience and sustainable living. In this future, Europe leads the world in creating a circular economy. Every city and town is powered by 100% renewable energy—solar farms, offshore wind turbines, and advanced fusion reactors meet all energy demands. Homes are designed with green roofs, vertical gardens, and bioengineered materials that absorb carbon. Waste is a thing of the past, as all products are designed to be reused, repaired, or recycled into new resources.Transportation has evolved into a seamless, eco-friendly network. Self-driving electric buses, hyperloop trains, and shared e-bikes make personal car ownership unnecessary. Roads are quieter, air is cleaner, and wildlife flourishes even in urban areas, as cities have integrated green corridors and natural habitats into their infrastructure.In schools, environmental education is at the heart of every curriculum, teaching young people how to live sustainably, innovate responsibly, and care for the planet. Communities are empowered to shape their environments through participatory democracy, using AI tools to simulate and plan the outcomes of local decisions.Moreover, this future Europe has bridged social divides. Clean energy and sustainable resources have made life more affordable for everyone, reducing inequality. Universal basic income, funded by efficient economies and technological advancements, ensures that every citizen has the freedom to pursue meaningful work, creativity, or lifelong learning.In 2040, the European Union's collaborative spirit extends beyond its borders, sharing knowledge and technology to help the entire world address climate change. Global solidarity has replaced competition, making the planet a healthier, fairer place for all. This future isn’t utopian; it’s achievable with collective effort, bold policies, and a shared vision for a better tomorrow. It’s a Europe where we’ve learned from the past and built a future we’re proud to call home

Il futuro che vorrei fosse la normalità
I wake up in 2040, it's a Tuesday. I'm getting ready to go to work. It is the first day of the 4 that make up the working week. I have breakfast calmly, for the sake of making it, not for the necessary intake of nutrients that are automatically already well balanced by the meal created ad hoc for my specific needs by 'manufacturer.i go to work with my medium non-polluting and safe to 98% in the meantime I update on the most important news just the time to be operational. Work is not heavy, companies and unions have worked during the previous 10 years to minimize work stress and optimize the time and energy of the worker balancing the need for individual well-being. Great because if you work well you can enjoy more time with family or friends maybe with a walk outdoors, in a planet less and less dependent on CO2 emissions and that has almost stopped global warming

Minulla on aikaa
In 2040 I would have time for my children and grandchildren. I'm not quite retired yet, so of course I'm working. I work 7 hours a day five days a week. I have time to focus and focus on my work. I can do my job as well as I want. After work, I have time to take care of myself and my loved ones. I also have time to volunteer. And time to rest. I sleep well at night and wake up refreshed in the morning.
