Toivottavasti visiot auttavat paremman Euroopan kehittämisessä. On unohdettu, että valtiot ovat ihmisistä huolehtimiseksi, ei päin vastoin.

In Europe, wealth inequality has been reduced by the widespread introduction of basic income. At the same time, corporate social responsibility has been developed and tax havens have been brought under full control. Education, science and culture have become more valued than economic success. Europe has seen the planting of large areas of mixed forests, sustainably managed and with a total ban on clear-cutting, thanks to the employment of immigrants. Health care is mainly free, only cosmetic care is paid for. Europe has tightened its ranks to a quasi-federal state, with a high level of security, human rights and a green economy compared to the rest of the world. Europe is economically independent from China and the United States, the Eagles trade mainly with each other. Russia is divided into numerous small states.
European culture is in its heyday and everywhere old buildings have become symbols of culture and are being extensively restored. Urban planning has moved away from capitalist profit-making towards the promotion of prosperity, and the amount of urban greenery has been set at a high level by legislation.
The economic system is changing, capitalism has been abandoned because of the awakening realisation that it is the cause of natural disasters and climate change. Europe is undergoing an intellectual and economic transformation, with a value system based on equality and the protection of nature. Party systems have been abolished and democracy operates on an individual basis: candidates are required to make a sworn declaration setting out the issues they will commit themselves to promoting during their term of office. Elected representatives are subject to scrutiny and are replaced by substitute candidates if there is any objectionable performance.

En positiv fremtid
It's a beautiful day in the city. The smog and smoke particles from cars and oil burners are almost gone. The city's roofs shine from the solar panels mounted on every building. The power is free for those who make the roof available to the community and the rest is sold cheaply to industry. Energy is not something that is monetized, but a shared good. This is also due to the large ITER fusion reactors in each country. The city is green. Trees and parks have spread and are used by the inhabitants who now work 30 hours a week. We laugh when we look back 15 years ago at all the time spent at work. The extra free time has created a boom in leisure activities and volunteering. Stress has decreased significantly in society and quality of life has increased. The massive program to eliminate inequality in the EU has paid off; the richest are not as rich as they used to be and they don't lack anything, but with the poorest suddenly having money in their hands, crime has dropped to almost nothing and health care bills have fallen. People are happy. War is a thing of the past. We found that peace and trade was better in the long run. Russia is starting to be accepted again after their apology to Ukraine and the world and they are experiencing a boom in their economy and tourism. Trump's regime never materialized and the next president apologized and changed things so that even Americans could get some of the welfare benefits that Europe gives its citizens. Religion no longer rules the world. Secular societies based on science and humanism have finally trumped the Iron Age-based religious dogmas. Now man finally comes before the gods and equality and diversity flourish. Circumcision has become a choice for people of legal age, church bells no longer interfere with daily life, all religious communities pay taxes and the Danish Church has finally been freed from the state due to lack of support. They collect their own taxes and several churches have been transformed into cultural centers that everyone can use. Environmentally, progress is slow. The Ministry of Fisheries and the Ministry of Agriculture have taken an incredibly hard line and have spent many resources on innovative solutions and restrictions on emissions and harmful fishing. Several zones in Denmark have been protected from industrial fishing and with the huge restoration effort, where the Green Tripartite proved to be just the start of an environmentally friendly revolution, life has returned to the sea and nature, wildlife and insects are thriving. These things have become a big part of Denmark's tourist experience. Technology is booming. Robots help us in our everyday lives and advanced genetic engineering has doubled the human lifespan and eradicated many diseases, including cancer. We can now control unhealthy obesity much better and healthier and the increased health has reduced healthcare costs. We now have a healthcare system that can handle the needs of society without the health professionals suffering. Education has become more widespread after the government's massive investment in public schools. It was discovered that a good primary school with small class sizes, more teachers and a strong focus on pedagogy in the children's free time, supported by many competent educators, prepared the children to become well-functioning citizens, as they gained both academic knowledge and social skills from an early age. Danish children are doing well. The Danish Church has also been removed from primary schools. Christianity education has been changed to the subject "philosophy of life" and also includes non-religious beliefs. This has better equipped children to deal with the diversity of the world and create a better self-image of themselves. After the independence of the Church of England, the number of secular weddings and funerals has increased. It was Scotland that started this trend, which has now spread to the rest of Europe. So the world has now taken the first deep steps towards a more peaceful world, with less war, a better environment and less human suffering. We have already started colonizing Mars and the discovery of life on some of Jupiter's moons has humbled us. We are not the only life in space. And with Earth as our safe and green base, we are finally technologically ready to conquer space beyond our own solar system.

Nature
In the future I see (or more like I steongly hope to see) people loving nature and appreciating it more, showering it in love. People taking their time to nurture nature, planting more trees and plants, taking care of them. I see our nature triving, the world map looking more green with each passing day. I see more people talking about how beautiful our surroundings are and how important it is to keep it that way.

Umweltfreundliche Zukunft
In my future, more emphasis would be placed on the climate. There would be more research into renewable energy, the lifespan of technical products would be significantly longer and they could be repaired cheaply everywhere. Consumption would be sustainable and meat would be significantly more expensive. On the other hand, more emphasis is placed on environmentally friendly, healthy alternatives. Rainforest deforestation is banned and a sustainable alternative for wood is found. All in all, we respect nature more.

Es kann nur besser werden...
I urgently wish for a peaceful Europe, not only free of "special operations" at the borders, but also of terror within the borders. I would also like to see good living conditions, clean air, safe strolling through the cities, which would mean a massive reduction in individual, motorized traffic. Cruelty towards animals will hopefully be a thing of the past, so people will live mainly vegan, which will also help the climate. I am not as negative about its development as the mainstream (I prefer mild winters). I also very much hope that Europe has not succumbed to Islam and that the totalitarian nature of this ideology is recognized and combated in the meantime. Technological developments and inventions will make life easier in many areas over the next 15 years. I very much hope that the EU will not regulate everything to death, but will provide opportunities for new developments. I look forward to the beautiful and pleasant things that are to be expected!
