In particular, I see the urban area as a major contributor to sustainability and health, given the profound urbanisation. We are facing a wide range of issues such as mobility and food. So how we organise our urban areas has a bigger impact. I hope that the city of the future is a place where there is no car (at least as we know it now), but where smaller city centres are connected. The 15 minutes city in its optimal form: reach everything you need in at least 15 minutes. But also many green, small urban parks, places to grow food yourself/together. By shaping the city of the future, people feel connected. With each other and their surroundings. Our environment is shaped in such a way that people experience ownership, creating other cost and benefit structures as well. It also aims to make the population healthier. Healthy outdoor air (including in cities due to low or zero emissions), many walking and cycling, and social cohesion. In my ideal city, the community is strong and people are part of strong networks.

Sollievo, tranquillità, vita.
In 2040 I will be 78 years old, I think I will appreciate a quiet reality.I would like the city to be full of green areas, with many trees, no cars, but many quiet, small but safe means of transport. I do not have many other desires, I would like my body to age without pain as well as my mind.

Energy is based on renewable sources and nuclear energy. Transportation is mainly electric. Hydrogen batteries are in common use. Coroby is treated based on the genome. Reproduction is reduced and the population is reduced by at least 1/3. Vegetation absorbs CO2 and is climate control.

I was woken up by a personal alarm clock with fresh coffee and baked bread. After a sonic bath, I wore nano-fiber clothes that measured my vital signs for an electronic doctor. A flying taxi and today's digital newspaper were waiting for me at the entrance. In the office, the robot secretary sorted the mail. She immediately started dictating letters and sending them to certain addresses that I chose.

La simplicité et le respect en 2040
In 2040, life is peaceful in Europe, everyone smiles, there is no aggression in any country. If there are problems between people, there will be people who will be responsible for resolving problems amicably, and everything will be simple. There will be freedom of expression, respect for everyone's ideas.
