A green Europe. In 2040, nature in cities, around cities, in rural areas and in nature areas. Solutions for energy, housing, transport, etc. are designed to improve nature. People value nature and want to live in places with high natural values. It is therefore also important for businesses and cities that natural values are high, as there is still a competition for talent. Businesses design green buildings and work on sustainable circular chains. People also appreciate nature because it helps keep their environment cool when it is warm and remove water from hay abrasives. Droughts are becoming less severe due to vegetation and biodiversity helping to retain water. People see the importance of nature to mitigate the effects of climate change. People feel connected to trees and animals. Watching birds is a popular hobby. People give names to the trees in their city. Nature also makes a spiritual contribution to our health, by walking, taking forest baths or swimming them in nature.

Healthy foods
The food gets cheaper and more qualitative. They stop adding unknown cemicals to food. They allow people who have farms or orchards to sell products off the field. There is a sugar quota… they add less sugar everywhere and ban some of the more unhealthy sugary things like sodas. The fitness centres are available to everyone and can be subscribed for as long as one wants and not binding people to them for half a year or more.

I think in 2040, technological advances will make medicine move forward. New techniques to diagnose diseases, AI technology to support doctors, or being the entity that treats. New types of therapies, drugs to increase the chance of a healthy convenient long life. Cancer will become a weaker opponent. Although the prognosis is not optimistic, there is hope that the number of health care workers will increase.

Utopia
I envision a world where common sense prevails, where there is respect for every living thing, for animals, plants and nature in general. Where everyone can satisfy basic needs. Where the word materialism no longer exists and money loses importance. I hope for a world where the word cancer is no longer scary

Mon futur à moi
I'd like the future to be safer for everyone. That life would be cheaper. That the poor be helped. That everyone would have a job and a roof over their heads and be able to eat their fill. That there will be no more famine or sick children anywhere in the world. That everything be settled and that we all move forward together without discrimination or anything. Everyone must be able to live in peace. My perfect future would be a world where everyone could live in peace.
