I think that in 2040 there will be a progressive widening of the gap between rich areas and poor areas. Unfortunately, wars and conflicts will probably not disappear in the world, and the strongest countries will take advantage of the poorer ones. I am afraid that the level of environmental pollution will continue to grow, and in 2024 mankind, while being outdoors, will have to support themselves with some kind of masks with filters. In addition, we will be surrounded by a multitude of robots, which, among other things, will mainly be used in areas such as elderly care. In addition, in 15 years' time, education will completely change, traditional books, notebooks, exercises will be completely replaced by multimedia content, and artificial intelligence will be used to a much greater extent in this area. Thinking about our country, if we keep up the pace of development then the whole country will grow, many areas will become even more beautiful, villages will turn even more into suburbs and "bedrooms" for larger cities, where in turn professional work will be concentrated.
