In 2040, I would envision a future where sustainability has become the norm in every aspect of life, addressing the pressing environmental challenges we face today. By then, I imagine a world where renewable energy is the primary source of power, with solar, wind, and advanced geothermal technologies replacing fossil fuels entirely. Cities would be powered by clean energy grids, and all transportation, from cars to planes, would be electric or hydrogen-powered, dramatically reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Nature would be respected and integrated into urban planning. Green spaces would flourish in cities, with vertical gardens on skyscrapers, green roofs on buildings, and expansive parks in urban centers. Streets would be lined with trees, and wildlife corridors would connect parks and natural habitats, allowing biodiversity to thrive even in densely populated areas. Water conservation techniques would be commonplace, with cities using reclaimed water for irrigation and even incorporating aquaponics and hydroponics into everyday food production.

Waste would be almost entirely eliminated. Most goods would be made from biodegradable or recyclable materials, and the concept of “zero waste” would be widespread, with products designed to be reused, repaired, or upcycled instead of discarded. Composting would be standard in households and communities, and landfills would be a thing of the past.

In this future, people would live more consciously, with a strong focus on local, sustainable food systems. Urban farming would be commonplace, with cities growing much of their own food using innovative farming methods that minimize resource use.

Overall, by 2040, humanity would have shifted toward living in harmony with the planet, ensuring a cleaner, more sustainable world for generations to come. This shift wouldn’t just be technological; it would also be cultural, as society embraces values of stewardship, cooperation, and long-term thinking for the benefit of the Earth and all its inhabitants.

There is no war in Europe. To this end, governments, with the support of the people, have taken the necessary decisions to ensure security and punish aggressors. These decisions have been enforced. On crucial issues for the EU, it is not consensus that is needed, but the support of a majority of member states. The cultures and customs of indigenous peoples are respected. These are legally protected and enforced. Along with security, family and children are recognised as areas of national importance. All national decisions are taken in the light of their impact on security and families, and subsequently on the wider economy and environment. Reducing regulations and state subsidies in the economy. We are moving towards a situation in which regulation must be justified only by exceptional need, and public subsidies are only available in the social sphere (emergency aid, welfare, etc.), education and culture. No tax will be levied on donations and activities that are voluntary. Europe has taken the initiative to develop a new organisation to replace the UN, bringing together the countries of the world and working on a predominantly voluntary basis. This organisation will also have its own enforcement mechanism. The nations of Europe will lead by example, first and foremost through their actions; the time for talk is over.

Futur meilleur

Inevitably, the world is going to change, thanks to technological advances. I think, or at least I hope, that we'll be living on a less polluted planet. That humans will have more respect for the environment, that we'll have access to healthcare for everyone. Less delinquency and more respect for the elderly. That everyone can have a minimum of comfort.

Health is the most important thing for a person to stay alive. Timely access to medical care is very poor today. I am very hopeful of advances in technology that will give people the possibility of timely diagnosis and treatment of illness by an artificial arm. After all, the situation today is that a doctor prescribes a diagnosis and medication to a patient based on the symptoms described by the patient over the phone or in an e-health centre without seeing the person. The development of a self-driving car service would provide people with better mobility, regardless of where they live, their age or their state of health.

I would like the future to be happy and secure, instead of gloomy as it seems to be now. In the future, AI would do the boring and dangerous jobs and leave the art to competent, knowledgeable people. A future where more emphasis would be placed on people's mental well-being rather than driving them into a constant spiral of fatigue and depression. The working hours should be shorter than the basic 8 hours so there would be enough work for more people and the wages should be raised to a level where the rent can be paid with those hours. This would leave more time for hobbies and future development.
