The future of food.

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".

Europa unita
United Europe. I would like there not to be so many armies with so many individual state expenditures but one European army. Also I would like to eliminate the duplication of law enforcement agencies that continually get in the way by having for the Italian state a duplication in commanders etc. A European salary system and not of each state. In short if we are Europe we must have common intentions, otherwise we dissolve Everything.

Parks statt Parkplätze
In 2040, people have finally realized how important it is for everyone to protect the climate. There has been a real rethink in transport planning and cars are no longer the main means of transportation. Cities are following the concept of short distances and alternative means of transportation, such as cable cars, have become established. As a result, the quality of life has also improved enormously. Instead of parking lots, there are now green spaces and water areas that make spending time in the city more pleasant.

Schöne neue Welt
Getting up. When I got out of bed, the coffee machine switched itself on and made two cups of fresh coffee. Shortly after that, the oven starts because my breakfast rolls are ready. After breakfast, my closet suggests what I should wear today. It takes into account the weather forecast that it has retrieved from the Internet. I listen to news about the areas that interest me on the loudspeakers in my apartment. I can change the preselection at any time, but the AI registers how I react to the individual items, recognizes my interests and adjusts the selection of items accordingly. Then the work begins. I sit in a virtual open-plan office and can interact with all my colleagues via my VR glasses. Individual work performance is assessed, taking into account age and current state of health, and the result is displayed with a signal. Green means that performance is above expectations, yellow indicates average and red means that work performance is below average and overtime is therefore required to complete the usual workload.

Demokrati och självtillit
Democracy and self-reliance. My main wish is that all countries that are now ruled by either relgious or warmongering autocrats would disappear and all countries would experience democracy. Locally, that Finns would be better at selling their products abroad and that those with financial means would invest in their own country.
