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).

International world
Ideally, I like to think of a future in 2040 for example, that is even more international that the world we live in today. In fact, I consider that nowadays, when compared to the previous years and the generation of my parents and grandparents, our reality is way more international and I've lived it myself. But I like to believe that in the future it will be even more easy to travel and explore other countries and share international experiences worldwide. However, I'm afraid that these expectations I have in mind for the future might be stopped by wars and international conflicts related to politics.

It's hard to think so far because I'm 75 now. Above all, I want my children and grandchildren to live in a safe world with democratic values, have the opportunity to work and education based on their conditions , have access to a nature that is not private and also a culture that is not expensive

Älter werden im Dorf
Ich bin älter geworden. Ich habe mir mit meinem Partner den Traum erfüllt, nochmal ein Haus zu bauen - im Garten des alten Hauses war ja schließlich noch Platz! Kleiner als das alte Haus ist es nicht geworden, dafür besser aufgeteilt. Wir haben uns in die obere Wohnung zurückgezogen - das Büro im Untergeschoss wird nicht mehr gebraucht, seit wir uns aus dem Arbeitsleben zurückgezogen haben. Jetzt dient es als Appartement, wenn Kinder und Enkel zu Besuch kommen. Unsere Nachbarschaft verändert sich ständig. Trennungen und Todesfälle sorgen für Wechsel. Die Häuser stehen nicht lange leer. Es ist sehr beliebt, im Dorf zu wohnen. Hier achtet man immer noch aufeinander und das Zusammenleben funktioniert. Es gibt viele Angebote für Jung und Alt, dem meisten Leuten ist es wichtig, sich ehrenamtlich zu engagieren. Insgesamt eine gute Umgebung, älter zu werden.

I would like 2040 to be antidiscriminate for people above 26 years old to get job. I mean here 26 years old is unmet to apply jobs. I mean its limited only from 18 to 25 years old. And the rest people are jobless even 40s and 50s years old. The issues are a lot. But i can't believe it its difficult here also to do business or self employee. Because everyone also have no job, and less moneys, to buy our products very challenging. I wanna see this will improved and people are secure financialy, can pay taxes, more integrity, prosper. I can't describe the future would be. Clearly, the future i wish is full of blessings and prosperity.
