There wouldn't be any cars in cities: only public transports and light transport means as bikes and scooters. With no need for car parking, there will be more spaces transformed in parks and gardens. With no need for large routes, all streets will be more green with trees and plant or vegetables containers. With less pollution, we will be able to eat fruits and aromatic plants grown in our own neighborhood. As teleworking will be the norm for some businesses, we will also be able to work from abroad time to time and this way enjoying longer stays and a slower way of travel. Using train will again be the norm; air plane will be limited to business and urgencies.

Den gamle kones fremtidsønsker

In 2040, I will be 98 years old. I hope that I'm still alive and that my current ailments have not worsened. If I have deteriorated and moved into a nursing home, I hope there are still staff to meet my needs and wishes. I hope my children, children-in-law, grandchildren and great-grandchildren? will come and visit me. Most of all, I hope that there is more peace in the world and that the climate is under control so that future generations can grow up in security.

Ein besseres Leben träumen

I can choose the provider of my statutory social insurance myself. It's the same one I have my car insurance with. It is inexpensive and tailored to my needs. Tomorrow I am invited to vote with politicians in a select group on an important issue for our Austria. It's called Polit Schöffe. I get to vote and have a direct say in what happens in our country. At last there is social justice. If you work hard, you can earn a lot without being punished. What I have earned belongs to me. Multiple taxation was abolished last year, men now earn so much that women can afford the luxury of staying at home with their children. This time also counts towards their pension.

In the future, I don't need to drive a car, but the car goes wherever I want. It is controlled by phone and you rent it by the day or hour through a company. In schools there is no longer violence, but everyone takes care of each other. Respect for everyone has become a reality and everyone takes care of each other. Money is also no longer available, but everything is paid via an APP on the phone. Shops have decreased in number, but most often you order the goods home now. Politicians are taking more time to listen to each other instead of smearing each other.

The year is 2040 and people are taking a more sustainable approach to shopping. Charges have been introduced for the use of single-use plastic packaging, so people are using reusable bags to buy fruit or vegetables and also for baked goods. They carry large bags made of recyclable material for big purchases.
