Morning 2050
The sun slowly weaves over the panorama of Riga, reflecting against glass domes that cover a large part of the city. Artificial intelligence has already awakened Ilze, adjusted room temperature and prepared a morning drink, an energy cocktail adapted to her needs today.

After 2025, the world changed rapidly. Climate change made people act quickly – cities were adapted to use only renewable energy sources, while cars with internal combustion engines have long become museum exhibits. Society was also undergoing changes: universal basic income and a short-time work week allowed people to focus on creativity, education and science, and not just on survival.

Ilze opens her smart glasses and examines the latest information on her scientific project – she is working on a new type of vertical farming system that could address food insecurity in other regions of the world. She doesn’t need to work in the office – her team of people and artificial intelligence collaborates virtually.

Afternoon - Trip to Mars Station
Ilze spends lunch with his friend Arthur, who returned from the Mars Colony, where he helped build the infrastructure there for the past six months. Interstellar travel is still not available to everyone, but Mars' missions have become a routine. Arthur tells about new ecological modules that allow the colony to be completely self-sufficient.

Evening - calm and tech
During the evening, Ilze takes a walk through green Riga – the city has become a living ecosystem where the walls of buildings are covered with plants, while the streets are adapted for pedestrians and cyclists. There is no pollution in the city air, because the entire industry is carried out in closed, self-cleaning premises or outside the Earth.

Before going to bed, Ilze reviews the events of the day, meditates and allows her artificial assistant to adjust the activities of the next day. The world is much different in 2050 than in 2025 – people have finally solved many global challenges and learned to live in harmony with nature and technology.

In 2040, medicine developed enough that teeth are able to regenerate, albeit to some extent. More and more treatments can be carried out without the need to involve a multi-person medical team. Births take place painlessly, which results in an increase in the number of children. Better organized public transport was introduced, which relaxed traffic jams and reduced air pollution. We have discovered a new, inexpensive way to recover water from rain.

Stipri ir konkurencinga Europa be migrantų
I would like Europe to be safe, there would be no more migrants who break the law and exploit Europe's legal loopholes and people's goodness. I would like the European economy to be the strongest in the world, with manufactured goods meeting standards and being a sign of cocube in the world. I would like Europe to have a political backbone and a greater concern for the people of Europe and their well-being

Europa mojego dzieciństwa w przyszłości
A safe and strong Poland, open to each other, at the same time nurturing and defending its traditions and cultures. International exchanges, cooperation between countries but guarding their integrity. Modern and developing, at the same time defending against giving one's life fully to digital values. Full of greenery and caring for what the earth has given us, defending the environment. Ensuring decent living conditions for citizens, accessible housing and decent wages, defending democracy.

Spokojený svět
By 2040, our society and that of the world will be so prosperous that people will not be reduced to scams, thefts, tunnelling, or even wars. The land will belong equally to the rich and the poor. We will protect nature, not devastate it, because we will finally realize what it can give us if we take good care of it and protect it. People will not starve because there will be enough food for everyone. It will be a world of abundance and satisfaction for all, both for humans and animals. We will not envy each other because everyone will have the basics and it will depend only on each of us how we arrange it. It will be a world where one can live happily, and for diseases for which there are no medicines yet, immediate diagnosis and treatment will be possible.
