The sun was slowly rising above the horizon, its rays reflecting off the glass facades of buildings covered with solar panels. The air was cleaner than ever, as most transport had long since switched to hydrogen and renewable electricity. I walk down a quiet street where autonomous vehicles quietly cruise the roads without traffic lights - all controlled by artificial intelligence that optimizes traffic and minimizes congestion.

Public transport is free and funded by taxes from big tech companies committed to investing in sustainable development. Cities no longer suffer from overheating because vertical gardens and green roofs grow between buildings. Even formerly uninhabitable neighbourhoods have been transformed into pleasant residential zones full of community centres and modern apartments with zero carbon footprints.

Think back to 2025, when the climate crisis was at its peak and many doubted whether humanity could change. But thanks to global agreements and advances in technology, the tide has turned - plastics are almost a thing of the past, recycling works efficiently and food is grown locally in high-tech farms right in cities.

I open my smart glasses and have my daily schedule projected. Artificial intelligence suggests where I'll have lunch, based on my health and my body's current needs. At work, I have a project to develop a new bioplastic that can decompose in nature in a few weeks.

The world isn't perfect, but it's definitely better. Most importantly, we now know that change is possible if we choose to make it.

les voyages du futur

By 2040, the way we travel will have changed completely. No more human-driven cars. We'll be boarding spacious, comfortable machines equipped with a variety of games and screens. All we'll need to do is ask for our destination, and we'll arrive at high speed, stress-free and fatigue-free.

Nevalné vyhlídky.

The main issues to be tackled are migration, peace, the environment. The EU needs to impose tough rules so that it does not pay for anyone to migrate to Europe. This could be done by 2040. Migration causes unrest in society, fear among local people, acts of terrorism. Peace - calming the war in Ukraine, the conflict between Israel and Hamas. These two conflicts make us most nervous. Politicians should do everything to bring about calm. And the environment? The whole planet must try to improve the situation, Europe will not save anything.

Gemeinsam zusammen

All the houses on our estate are energy self-sufficient. If the individual solar cells are not enough, we have our communal wind turbines, which always produce at high altitude. The profit is distributed to everyone. We only drive a few electric cars and prefer to use our bikes or local transport for most journeys. There are trees everywhere, it's green. Birds on every corner. I work for a company in Ireland. But with home office and fiber everywhere, it doesn't matter where in Europe I work. My son is studying in Denmark. But with the high-speed trains, he can be back here in an hour.

Budúcnosť bez obavy

I would like there to be peace on earth. That all unrest would cease. We are all responsible for what our planet will look like in the future and what relationships will be like, but the higher ups have much more influence over everything. I also hope that nature will be put back in order. We should eliminate the cutting down of trees because they are the main producers of oxygen. Various natural disasters are becoming more and more frequent. Heavy rains but also extreme droughts are plaguing the country in much greater numbers than in the past. This is linked to global warming. It is not only people who suffer during wars, but also nature. I think that nature becomes enormously polluted then. Dangerous substances leak out of explosions and enter the atmosphere, and the soil and, of course, the animals also suffer. I hope that people will realise what is happening to our planet as soon as possible and that we can do a lot together. People are constantly complaining about the political system. I don't know if this has any solution. But it will certainly help if there are road and fair people in politics. But such people are very hard to find. Everything goes easier with good state leadership. There are much nicer interpersonal relations between people in a given country, less quarrels and overall well-being. However, it should be remembered that small changes can be made by man for himself. Try to be better day by day and thus create a more beautiful future for yourself. I hope that the world will only go for the better.
