From the dark times of 2020/21/22/23 and 24 we are finally out! Now we are in 2040, I have 6 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren almost all graduates and wonderfully employed with respectable salaries! Russia has joined the EU and is supporting the whole European continent with its raw materials! The majority of immigrants returned to their countries after having acquired various professional skills in European countries. Africa in general is developing steadily and productively. For about ten years now, we have finally had serious, well-prepared and above all human politicians in government who know how to interpret the true mission of those who must govern and manage the well-being of their people! Who would have thought that we would come out of the tunnel of wars and nefarious globalization in so few years? My old age looks serene!!

The world would be at peace and that the richer countries would help poverty in the poorer regions.Also I imagine Ai will play a very big part of life in 2040.No more diesel or petrol cars are to be produced. Very warm summers with many people dying and strong winter storms.Hopefully there is a cure for Cancer.Smoking to be banned in most countries.Respevt for each others religious views would be tolerates.

There will be a greater development of artificial intelligence, and all citizens will connect to each other through it. The use of the microchip to be implanted on the skin of the hand will spread, and in it will be uploaded all your information and data, such as identity and health document, bank account number, possibility of making banking and financial transactions through it. Robots will spread in all homes that handle all household chores and the means of transport that use fossil fuel will disappear; the energy will be produced by mini nuclear power plants. It will be possible to reduce harmful emissions into the atmosphere, and wealth will be distributed more equally.

I think I'm going to Rome by train which is actually a shuttle so I can get there in half an hour. It is a tube in which the shuttle travels. In Rome there are no surface vehicles but you will move with single or multiple drones and with paths delimited by laser headlights that direct the path. This will be implemented in every European city. Unfortunately, given my age, I won't be there anymore. It's up to you to experiment
