Über den Dächern und Wäldern ist die Freiheit grenzenlos

Distances are melting away and I can be anywhere in the world without any effort. If I feel like spending the long weekend in Hawaii on Waikiki Beach, it will be possible without a long flight. Traffic jams in big cities are a thing of the past, as there are air cabs and robotaxis. For some very wealthy people, a flight on Jeff Beso's or Elon Musk's spaceship will be attractive. There will already be the first scientists and researchers on other planets, together with courageous settlers. Cancer will have been cured by then, as will many other previously incurable diseases. However, there are new, incalculable dangers. New strains of bacteria and viruses threaten humanity. Destruction through war is also much more likely by then if they fall into the wrong hands. That is why it is so important to make sure now that a dictator does not take over everything and oppress other countries. There must be some kind of world police force, such as NATO or the UN, which must ensure that peace is maintained. In the future, nature will flourish anew through new technologies and environmentally friendly production and will also bring back lost species in the animal and plant kingdoms.

Un avenir inclusif et solidaire
In 2040, I'd like to see a world where education is truly inclusive and values all pathways, especially vocational education. A system where every student finds his or her place and develops his or her talents, with no hierarchy between streams. Inequalities in access to culture and healthcare would be reduced thanks to ambitious policies. Preventive health care would be a priority, with fair treatment for all. Finally, society would be more ecological, with responsible consumer choices and technological advances serving the common good. A fairer, more united and more respectful world.

All together in peace
There is an artificial protective shell in the atmosphere, high above the earth. This protects living creatures from harmful conditions and keeps the climate at a constant 22 degrees Celsius. Movement is ensured by magnetic levitation trains and vehicles. Cars and motorcycles no longer exist. Everywhere there are vertical gardens that feed people. Farm animals no longer exist either. Most people work in research or in the gardens. All payment transactions are digital. People live in communities that correspond to their interests, i.e. family communities, sports communities, and a lot of value is placed on social interaction. I imagine a peaceful world without wars and without class differences. What counts is us, togetherness and life.

Bessere Welt
I hope that there will be no more wars and that all people can live together in peace. I wish for the environment to be better protected and for there to be no more pollution. I wish for animal welfare so that endangered species do not become extinct.

Sicherheit durch Überwachung
The personal security of every individual, be it physical or property security, is very important to me. That is why I would curtail the rights of every individual citizen and create a comprehensive database in which DNA and an encrypted numerical code would be stored immediately after birth. In the event of a crime, this database could be used to determine who was at the scene of the crime on the basis of items found (hair, blood.....). Even if data protectionists would be up in arms about it, such an anonymous and encrypted database would certainly be a major deterrent for potential criminals. For me personally, even a chip that everyone gets implanted would be a conceivable way of determining who was at the scene of the crime at the time. DNA samples can still be used to deny the time of the crime. Many, many crimes such as murder, assaults, burglaries and hit-and-runs could easily be solved. On the other hand, it can also be used to prove that a suspect is not guilty and convictions based on false "witness statements" or accusations could be refuted very easily. I am not a friend of surveillance, but if it serves security and is encrypted, then I am all for it.
