Sikke godt vi har det

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Since our joint global efforts to generate fusion energy and establish sustainable agriculture bore fruit almost 10 years ago, my asthma has disappeared and the bees are back in my garden. I'm old, but I've resumed my fishing trips - there have been fish in the fjord again. Stem cell technology has alleviated my arthritis, so now I work part-time in the cultural centre, where I arrange art exhibitions, concerts and activities for children and the elderly, which are seen every day after the children's school hours. This is quite satisfactory at the age of 83. Most people say I look like I'm 70. Just by eating healthy and walking with the dog every day. Even my three-year-old wife is jealous. At 79 years old, she is the youngest cultural worker in the nursing home - they have all those who lived alone - typically 95-100 years old and up. She is looking forward to working part-time when she retires in 6 months, when she turns 80.

The world is at peace. People came to their senses when they were on the brink of war. All borders have been abolished - everyone can move freely. Through the exchange of knowledge and culture, we have expanded our horizons, and scientists have made many discoveries. No one is excluded, everyone works together. It is not money that counts, but skills that can be developed. We behave responsibly towards the nature around us - we understood that we create a symbiosis.

2040?2050? 2025? It's time to take stock, because nature is still suffering, despite all the warnings. Remember, it's not that long ago, it was 15 years ago, and even more so now, but our politicians still don't give a damn. And war? of course it's still with us, and it's costing our so-called free nations more and more. Free from Trump and the mad right, fortunately, because remember how much we have suffered from so many lies, so much false information... But Russia and China have banded together against Europe and America, along with certain African countries. Fortunately, Latin America remains neutral. A sad vision of our world in 2040, led by a pseudo-artificial intelligence that has cut off all human relationships. No more flowers to put on the cannons, which in fact no longer exist, given that conflicts are delivered by drones. The plan was to deliver parcels and medicines by this means, but no, the conflict in Ukraine, which was 15 years ago, was just the beginning of this new way of fighting. Fewer dead soldiers, but more civilians buried, not to say smoked out, like 95 years ago. Fortunately, Europe has become more united, to become the lighthouse that many had hoped for, without really believing in it.

In my future I would like more funding for schools and health care and fewer weapons. Europe would be stronger and more influential in the world economy, not in an overbearing way but to be a support for even the most struggling countries. In my future, diversity will be a matter of course and accepted, not an excuse to be able to marginalize what is different. However, we should not all become equal (in dignity, freedom and rights yes) but learn to value our individuality and that of others. In my future, Europe will value the cultures of every country on the continent. Culture will not be a means by which we "prove ourselves superior to others," but a treasure to be shared and known. In addition, the problem of pollution will finally be addressed and fought with all the necessary tools, not with empty promises and indifference.

In 2040, the political situation in my country could be very different. All projects funded with taxpayers' money would be public, and there would be no corruption or profiteering. Also, by 2040, the use to which all tax revenues are put could be clearly known, and these taxes should also improve people's lives - for example, fuel excise duty or car tax should ensure that roads are in good condition and seasonally maintained.
