A Day in Europe 2050 After waking up on a sunny Vienna day in 2050, in a city where the streets were full of flying taxis and cyclists on the bike paths with a vast green canopy, Anna felt rejuvenated. A clean air that in the last 25 years in these cities had invented its filters, before in the atmosphere no one encounters any emission, the same homogeneous wind anymore, without a fluffy explosion. Above openly installed her smart glasses, moving on to her own needs, and from there to the agenda of the day through augmented reality. The work programme took place remotely in the virtual office, with more man-hours revolving around creative tasks, as routines now had days to be defined and some of the artificial intelligence. In the afternoon he visited an underground hydroponic farm as part of the sustainable nutrition program in the city. Then, through technology and renewable energy sources, Europe became self-sufficient in food. In the evening he descended to an event where distance united participants from across the continent in a digital space, a 3D hall through holograms. By 2050, Europe still with its own human means, ended those with charming consulates of which 2025 seemed impossible.

Unfortunately in view of the current geopolitical situation, we must expect a rise of right-wing extremes in Europe as everywhere in the world with everything related, democracy at half-mast, individual freedoms trimmed,... Difficult to see a "better" European future...

It's not interesting to me because I'm not going to live there anymore . I wish for my children and grandchildren , that they can live in peace and that the economy will be revived. There are fewer perpetrators of violence and the environment is being improved again.

I see pre-school, primary and secondary education institutions, as well as medical institutions, as being free from prejudices about the vegan diet. It is available, students and patients can eat wholesomely during the recovery period, because cooks are not limited to preparing poor food - not just boiled rice, pasta, potatoes, served with lettuce of leaves and some slices of tomato and cucumber. Cooks use a variety of products when cooking, including less used cereals, vegetables, and are also able to prepare delicious desserts. Over a period of several years, it would appear from various data that the vegan diet has a good effect on health, it would become a more frequent choice even for those who also eat meat and other products of animal origin.
