The future of all (Prihodnost vseh)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, I would like to see some of the problems that have arisen as a result of humanity’s actions over the past 200 years be solved. This problem is mainly global warming and the destruction of the planet. In addition, I would like to see more people who feel connected to others in the future – only through cooperation and integration can we make further progress. The best example of this is technological progress, which is largely the result of cooperation and accumulation and knowledge transfer over thousands of years. I think that working together is secret to tackle the problem of global warming, since we will have to get closer together in the future if we want to solve this problem. The policy will have to be integrated, as it is already doing with international climate conferences, but more needs to be done to solve the problem. Systematic solutions in the form of laws and sanctions will be needed to guide society as a whole towards more environmentally friendly action. Society will have to behave somewhat less individually and more collectively, and I want a democratic system in the future that allows everyone to participate, express their opinions freely and see each individual as something specific and enable them to grow personally, which is later seen for the benefit of society. I can conclude that some of the guidelines for such action are already in place (environmental laws and sanctions), but that their execution and implementation are currently not at a level that solves the problem. In addition, solving environmental problems requires technological developments that would increase the possibilities for substitution of resources (which would make them more affordable) that contribute to the problem, and this progress can be achieved through scientific integration worldwide, which has proven to be effective in many places (including in the production of COVID-19 vaccines).

Un posto in cui restare
In 2040 I would like the valley train to be frequent, even if only every two hours, and for on-call transport to cover the smaller villages, so that a 16-year-old boy can go to play sports or visit friends without the family having to organize for weeks. I would like fiber in every fraction, not as a promise but as a normal thing, because working from home here should be the obvious choice, not an exception to explain. I also wish the school wouldn't close. Classes with five children are a problem for those who organize the numbers, but for those who attend them they are a fortune: You learn differently, with the older ones helping the little ones and with the teachers who know each family. I imagine a mountain school that works with schools in other countries, with online twinning and real exchanges, and where Italian, German and English are spoken well, because languages are really needed here. And I wish young people had a way to do business without leaving. A cooperative that manages the forest and sells its wood in a sustainable way, a hostel run by those who grew up in the valley, a laboratory for the production of cheese or beer with the local raw material. Not everyone will have to become an entrepreneur, but those who want to try should find money, advice and someone to tell them they can do it. I don't know if that's gonna happen. But I know the question is not how to get young people back, but how to make sure they don't need to leave to have a full life. In 2040 I hope the answer is: There are things to do here, there are people to do them with, and someone will one day want to stay.
