Renewable energy resources have dominated the energy market, the fossil fuels have a very small use and a higher cost; they are only used in the less developed/less democratic parts of the world. Mining and earth's hydrocarbon extraction is also at a minimum, without loss of the quality of life, as recycling and the optimum use of materials and energy resources is widespread. The use of advanced materials, sensors and AI has automated many processes in a reliable way. The standard of life and the expected lifetime of humans has been significantly increased due to the use of new nanomedicines and diagnostics. Information technology has allowed democracy to be widely accepted, which in turn enables humans to be creative; our societies advance collaborative work and art; our cultural heritage is preserved. Wildlife has returned in large parts of the world due to the ending of most of the unnecessary human activity; advanced tools enable the safe coexistence with humans.

A peaceful world where everyone takes part in the collective success of France, where everyone can live comfortably and receives the merits of his efforts. A found justice or the deserving are those who provide the most commitment in society, and less taxed to maintain the laziness of those who participate in nothing.

Distopia
A world without borders free from war and hunger with a multi-ethnic society where every individual is respected without any distinction between ethnicity, skin color and religion. A green society no more pollution where nature has resumed its spaces a true participatory democracy where everyone can freely express their ideas

In 2040, Russia broke up into smaller states and China became a democracy. Prior to this, Russia has been at war, which has led to increased readiness and small border thorns also near the Finnish border. The World War could be avoided. Europe has been able to lighten the regulation that suppresses innovation, and the benefits of the common market have brought new prosperity to the whole region. Space tourism is still a utopia, but we dream of it. Artificial intelligence has reduced the need for labour, just like computers or the internet used to. The pain in society is that the top performers do well, but the less capable have fewer and fewer job opportunities and become passive. However, for political reasons, basic income has not been reached and there is a lot of this in the newspapers. Immigration has decreased and demographic trends have stabilised. The famine in Africa raises concerns and climate change puts pressure on population movements. The threat of war in the South is obvious. In the midst of the threats, I feel that already towards the end of my career I am financially safe thanks to entrepreneurship and hard work, and my children are doing well in a changed world. The future does not seem unproblematic, but disasters have, as before, been avoided.
