Climate problems have brought huge impact on agriculture, crops have been modified to survive warmer temperatures, genetic modification improve disease control and output tonnage, but at the cost of traditional small farm agriculture. Huge global companies were the ones able to raise the capital to build intensive food production, using less land space, water controls, food cost have reduced but controled by the few large companies, at expensive of family farms. Rural populations, without income, flock to cities in search of income, bringing problems expensive housing, civil disturbance, competing with refugees prepared to work for lower income. The new foods taste better and more nutritious, but only to those that can afford it, mass protesting and blaming governments for allowing this problem. People think how thing were much better in "the good old days".

DRUGACNOST
I am now living in 2040 and my children are facing a very different world. All lessons are only half an hour. All lessons are done behind computers and strange electronics. The weather has also got better, it very rarely rains and snow falls in abundance during the winter. The climate is controlled by us humans. We have also got medicines for almost everything (cancer, covid). The world has changed completely

Le retour de la sérénité
Given the current geo-political situation, I'd like our world to be at peace, less polluted, and for everyone to be able to live in harmony and on their own terms, for life to be peaceful and for the products needed for everyday life to be accessible to all. I hope that the world of politics and trade unions will at last be serious, balanced, respectful of everyone and listen to them with respect.

Des nouveaux isolants
In 2040, I'd like to see housing and dwellings upgraded to cope with climate change. To do this, we'd have to invent (if we haven't already done so) special exterior insulation that would protect against both heat and cold. Living conditions would really improve, and everyone would be able to live better and cope with extreme temperatures.

De la solidarité sociale à l'intelligence par l'investissement et le travail
The French, our politicians and European partner states are trying to correct the problems they have created by multiplying standards and administrative constraints, allowing distorted competitive trade and uncontrolled immigration. In 2040, competition is free and undistorted, in the sense that our companies are protected from European and international competition. Our Western values are defended tooth and nail. Priority urban neighborhoods no longer exist, because we've broken the all-social business. Local employment is preserved, and the social and political climate is calmer. Society is egalitarian because it is based on investment and work, not social debt.
