Think upside down

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I see a lot of opportunities for the future. When we think upside down, we can solve more issues than we think. When we work with new and bright ideas and innovations and address issues differently a lot of things can happen.

Ecoducts for humans instead of animals. Airplanes that suck electricity from the sky. People are not allowed to kill animals, only the weak once, like how it works in nature. Abandon plastic, and work with alternatives. Reward people instead of punishing them. Send love, also to insects.

2028 was a terrible year: right-wing extremists took over the government. The Russians have destroyed and incorporated the Ukraine.Immense environmental damage from wars and pollution is devastating.And our politicians are just talking. Now we are in 2040. 2035 is the year a nuclear war has broken out, the world and humanity are on the ground and will take centuries to rise again. 2040 a world without weapons, politicians who advocate or conduct wars are treated like murderers.

Een betere gezondheidszorg, eindelijk wereldwijd.
By 2040, health care will have improved significantly. Most cancers and other life-threatening diseases and conditions will be much more treatable, not least because their detection will be much earlier. In fact, all citizens will not only receive a complete health check every year, but will also carry implants to measure crucial values - if their health demands it. AI systems read those values and immediately sound the alarm when warranted. Following breakthroughs with stem cell treatments, donor organs are widely available. Giant strides have also been made in the field of artificial body parts. Because rejuvenation programs replace old and diseased cells with new ones, more people are reaching old age - and in good health, too. By Global Action 2036, these health care breakthroughs have literally spread around the world. Finally.

I want to live in a future where the damage caused by humanity on the planet is assessed and actually done about it. If we have to, we recycle the things we bought from our parents and grandparents and not the things that would be very damaging to the earth, like making soap instead of using shower gel, we pickle our own cabbage. Stricter rules for clothing brands, that they have to take back worn-out clothes, and how often they can release collections, e.g. 2 times a year. The other thing is stricter control of the policy. Unfortunately, my experience tells me that I am disappointed. I can't really trust the politicians of today. I cannot have any confidence in them. If they do anything, there should be sanctions. Because unfortunately the little man is now more regulated than a politician. Respect for women: a woman, if she has children, runs a household, serves her husband. What I have listed is not enough. But they understand things too. They know a lot. Women should also be paid similar salaries to our male counterparts, with fewer demeaning gestures towards us, just because they are the generally called weaker sex. Then I would feel at ease in 2040.

L'azzurro del cielo dimenticato
Europe in the last 20 years has changed so much...the skies are blue again, a blue that the generations at the turn of the millennium had not seen for a long time. The air is clean, fresh, the fumes produced by factories are now a distant memory, the smog produced by means of transport no longer exists, and their noise has disappeared, replaced by the noises of a nature that has taken back the space to which it was entitled and which the industrialization of the last two centuries of the previous millennium had wrested from it, leaving it to suffer more and more under the weight of a growth of a humanity that thought only of itself, without considering how much the environment around it would suffer until it became hostile. In this new everyday life, humanity realized the mistakes it had made, began to live serenely again with respect for the planet, this realization led it and revise many other behaviors, conflicts decreased, listening to each other improved, and now different cultures have flourished again, improving each other...the world is now at peace.
