Volare, fino a circa un secolo fa, era solo un'utopia!

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Against all dystopias designed by the ruling classes and their state rulers, we foresee a simple utopia as much more concrete and achievable. We see the salvation of man and his living environment, in the constitution of Confederate communities and organized from the bottom up with representatives revocable at any time on the basis of assembly decision. We hope for a decentralization from the big metropolises towards the countryside and the creation of independent but coordinated agricultural communities, in which there is production of food and everything you need, such as clothing, furniture, etc. according to artisanal methods that promote individual creativity. The training and education of children and young people will take place according to methods agreed by the members of each community and will have as its purpose not only a mere professional specialization, but the complete formation of the character and peculiarities peculiar to each one. Industrial production will remain in urban centers and will be almost completely automated, requiring only a few hours of weekly work and the operation of unpaid worker technicians coming in rotation from the various agricultural communities. Industrial production will follow the directives and meet the needs decided and elaborated by the Confederate communities, and the factories will operate on self-produced solar energy on site, as well as that useful for the life of the municipalities, and cold fusion. Cities will be, thanks to decentralization in the countryside, decongested, both in the sense of population density and for a better quality of life. Weapons will be completely destroyed and their materials recycled for civilian use, because in a humanity without ruling classes and managed by the world population there will be no need to oppose anyone, but only willingness to cooperate, aware that for a happy life it is necessary to be constructive and not destructive. All this looms like a new Renaissance in which the inner and material, economic realization of each one is no longer subject to the logic of profit in money, but to personal and community growth, which will promote an exponential increase of talents, both in the scientific and in the artistic field, just as it happened during the Italian Renaissance. Each community will maintain the traditions and customs of its territory, as well as the nations, but there will be no more borders. Those who, despite the well-being so realized and widespread, should want to harm or in any way override the municipalities in order to restore an order based on violence and autocratic harassment of other human beings, would be immediately arrested and exiled to some uninhabited island lost in the oceans: Where no one needs to steal, since all goods will be available to everyone according to their real needs, crime has no reason to exist!
Does this seem like a utopia to you?! But, is it not much more utopian, indeed, dystopian, all that the elites of today's rich billionaires have planned, aimed only at maintaining their privileges and, to achieve this, to provoke wars and massacres of innocents, to poison the planet, to completely replace human work and tasks with robots?! Technology must be used "cum grano salis" and, in order for science and research to be free, they must not be subject to the economic interests of a few rich people, to their narrow and limited perspective, and who reason like the character of Verga, Mazzarò, who thinks only of "stuff", of the riches he wants to bring even to the grave! This will be an unbloody revolution, a reversal of the perspective, meaning and purpose of human life on this planet: Get ready, then!

In 2030, there was a war in Europe involving the use of tactical nuclear weapons in a restricted area. As a result of the war, dozens of cities were destroyed, and nuclear pollution spread to the territories of warring parties and neutral countries under the influence of winds, causing a large number of civilian casualties. As the consequences became widely known throughout the world, the demand for a total ban on nuclear weapons arose. This led, especially in the nuclear powers, to the fall of governments and, in a few years, to the deactivation of nuclear weapons everywhere. In 2040, atomic power was harnessed exclusively for civilian use - mainly for the production of energy and heat. The main focus is on local small-scale power plants, whose patent rights are freely available to all countries. Fossil energy use has decreased significantly: or in very sparsely populated areas, it remains the most advantageous option overall. Even the smog that plagued China's big cities has practically disappeared. At the same time, green construction in urban areas has taken over the sector in almost every part of the world. The roofs of the apartment buildings are like gardens. The use of geothermal heat has become more common, while fields and forest squares covered with solar panels have been restored to their natural state. Wind farms are set up either at sea or further away from settlements, although higher installation and energy transmission costs cause critical debate.

Here we are in 2040 I am now 83 years young and glad to be here the changes I have seen since times gone by are unleavable and let me explain some of them to you now. The government we now have work for the people and not themselves the wages now meet the cost of living needs, the fuel of petrol and diesel are now like gold dust to buy but the cars that run on these fuels now are nearly extinct and cost more than our EVs to buy now. Cleaner environment for us all to live in. The housing market is better now more houses are being built and at affordable costs not much poverty about at these times and we should thank god for that. Now some of the downfalls of this era are computers they control everything now we shop online now no more going to the supermarket the times of our local pubs are gone we are controlled by robots and AI this for me is hard to take I miss some of the old times open fires snow fall good summers and lots more are our times changing for better our worse YOU TELL ME.

I hope all the war in Europe will be over and the situation has calmed down again. I hope Europe's economy flourishes and trade across national borders just flows. I also hope that a lot has happened in the field of renewable energy with solar cells, wind turbines and hydrogen cars. I hope that hydrogen has become well intertwined in Europe

I want a world without wars and terrorism, but the reality is that there will be more and more of this. Digital literacy will be much more developed, as will artificial intelligence. Future generations will be more protective of their environment and nature, as it shows us our teeth over the years and will even more remind us by 2040 that we are destroying it too much. The poor will be poorer, the rich will be richer.
