Una mañana más hacia un futuro mejor

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

A warm ray of light caresses my cheeks, I open my eyes and listen to the song of the birds, we are four February 2050. The moment I wake up my own house makes coffee as I like and I can enjoy a few minutes to wake up at my own pace. I smile as I watch as a male sparrow teaches his little sparrow how the world works. I close my eyes a moment remembering that day when we lost everything because of human greed, a third of the population has died in floods, droughts and other catastrophes that scientists have already warned about and nobody wanted to hear. That day there was a turning point and the survivors decided it was time to change, they learned, the hard way, that the survival of the human being depends on how it relates to its environment. We may still be selfish and reluctantly accept this new reality, but I am happy to be alive and to be able to contemplate this change, this new era where technology and economics go hand in hand with nature. The phone rings and I stop remembering those days of anguish, it is my son who comes to visit me with his newborn. I see their red cheeks and their placid durmiebdo face, I can not help but sketch a smile thinking that they are the ones who will continue with this legacy, I just hope that the greed can not be as it has happened in History and depart from this good path that we seem to take.

Humanity would pay attention to the environment and wildlife. Political decisions would be made with the desire to have the least impact on nature. There would be no more terrorist acts and our children could feel safe. Life would be peaceful.

After graduation I decided to stay here at my home, I remember very well when my parents were forced to choose between a better quality of life, and the most dear affections such as family and roots. Today fortunately it is no longer so, I can safely decide to carry out my profession in any European state and receive the same salary, but above all to be sure that the quality of my life will be the same everywhere. My technical knowledge is equally recognized, and the chances of making a career (while still wanting to start a family) are the same, I just have to decide if I want to stay here or start a new adventure. When I talk about it with mine, I see their eyes become shiny, because they know that anyway I will be happy and I will not have remorse not having to accept compromises. Today I witness many acquaintances who (even if in the last years of work) return to where they were born, will retire and will be serene. It's great to be able to decide: If you're a traveler and you don't have to become one.

Srečna in svobodna Evropa v prihodnost
In 2040, Europe was developed sustainably, using only environmentally friendly energy sources for electricity production, which are, of course, renewable. Most houses are equipped with a smart management system that optimises the use of energy as much as possible. The air is clean, we have stopped global warming, man is brother to man racism and we have eradicated discrimination

Zukunt für alle
I wish that by then we had managed to save , our planet. Clean, efficient energy is available indefinitely, but there are better alternatives than huge wind turbines that eat the ground. Housing is affordable for everyone and a fundamental right. Everyone has to do their part. There are no more social smears. Public transport, of any kind, is free of charge.
