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.

The strengthening of European democracy and safety
In an ideal 2040 world, there would have been massive political and governmental reforms in Russia and Belarus, with the fall of their current dictatorial regimes, likely dissolution of these states into multiple independent countries and the possibility of peace in Europe without the current threat to Eastern Europe sovereignty.

Europe and local
I would like to see rural and peripheral areas developed especially in Ireland. I would like to see public transport developed so we are less reliant on cars. I would like to be able to hop on a train and visit every part of the country. I would like to see safer communities across Europe, in towns and cities. Gang crime should not be tolerated. I want to see a Europe not at the dim of outside presidents or Dictator's. Europe should be strong and independent and a force for good in the World.

jezelf zijn en liefde
I wish that gender and sexual preference were no longer an issue. That children are raised gender neutral and open minded and that no one is looked at for gender or preferences. That people are equal, but that there is room for differences in being and experience. That people can live their lives with their loved one(s) and be free to express their love for others. And I would like love and tolerance to be important drivers in society. More important than profit and the right of the strongest.
