In the year 2040 the greatest advances are in the health issue, new drugs and faster ways of diagnosing diseases have been found. It has been achieved that many ingredients used by the food industry, causing many diseases, are totally banned, quality has been prioritized in food products, there is a large list of ingredients banned in both cosmetics and food. Progress is being made for a society more concerned with health. Mobile phones and tablets are banned at less than 10 years old. Companies have evolved more conciliatory schedules and the working day is 35 hours. Society is progressing towards greater health, as the deterioration in recent years leads the population to inevitable chaos.

The best thing would be for everyone to be able to live in symbiosis and in peace without war and misery. The fact that the world economy also stabilised was of great benefit to the entire world population, especially after tough years that have been recently with high interest rates, unemployment and pandemic.

Maria is a person who has completed the entire cycle of studies, including the paths after graduation. Despite this, she was unable to do the job she wanted and therefore had to settle for it. This situation was determined above all by a series of dynamics for which the place to which he aspired was so coveted and with few places that hardly enough only skills, in addition to those we needed a "good word from someone". Not having this last tool, he tried and tried but in the end had to settle for something else and do his ideal job if called privately. During her working career she realized that many people find excuses, in the sense that they are victims but that in reality, before they did the executioners; Given the uncertainty of punishment in this country, everyone thinks about cultivating their own vegetable garden bypassing the existing rules and, if caught red-handed, they find every pretext to be defined as a victim.

In 2050 I am standing on a roof terrace in Amsterdam, where the city skyline has been changed by floating gardens and sustainable skyscrapers that capture energy from the sun and the wind. The canals are now clean and filled with biodiversity, and self-driving boats slide silently past. Traffic on the street has disappeared, replaced by electric vehicles that move quickly and quietly through a network of underground highways. The air is fresh, thanks to decades of global cooperation to drastically reduce CO2 emissions. Between 2025 and 2050, the transition to renewable energy has accelerated, and the world has learned to work together rather than compete. Climate change is slowly under control, but there is still work to be done. Education is digitised and personalised, with artificial intelligence helping students to follow their own learning path. People no longer work in traditional office gardens; Working from home and flexible working hours have become the norm. Today I drink coffee from a biodegradable cup, looking at a city that has finally found its balance between technology, nature and people.
