Welt und Gesellschaft im Einklang

In 2050, private transport is largely a thing of the past. In cities, but also in the countryside, they are equipped with magnetic stripes on which automated buses drive. In the metropolises, subways run at an unimaginable speed, the Hamburg - Berlin route is completed in less than 20 minutes.
The world's major political blocs no longer exist and have given way to a UN that ensures that resources, work and the distribution of goods are done fairly across all continents. As a result, there is no significant migration.
At work, automated facilities and robots have taken over people's tasks. This eliminates the need to leave the house for work. Instead of permanently working in one place, people are now working on higher-quality tasks and project-related cooperation.
The exclusive use of renewable energy sources has significantly reduced global warming. There are no more engines or engines.

Migration from Africa and Asia is very strong. Europe has lost its identity and is always trying to adapt to the demands of immigrants. There are many terrorist attacks. There is an aggressive and terrorist state in the eastern neighbourhood, which has already appropriated large territories from other countries in various ways and is constantly hatching plans to appropriate Latvia as well. There is a constant threat and a very fragile sense of peace. There are many compromises that are only beneficial to the aggressive superpower. Under these conditions, there is no desire to bring offspring into the world - only immigrants breed - a problem that is more evident in well-off Western Europe, where there are more benefits. The greenhouse effect has resulted in very hot summers, unusual for the area, which has a major impact on yields. After fifteen years, I do not expect anything good and nice.

Europa 2040
It was a sunny day in Europe, in the year 2050. The streets of Paris glistened in the sunshine, but they were not like those of yesteryear. Flying cars were whizzing through the air, while autonomous streetcars were cruising down the avenues. At the Eiffel Tower, a group of tourists took pictures with augmented reality glasses, while virtually exploring other historical eras of the city. In Amsterdam, the canals were toured by electric boats that glided silently. Inhabitants wore wearable devices that allowed them to interact with the world in an immersive way, and bicycles floated thanks to anti-gravity technology. In Berlin, glass and steel buildings covered with plants seemed to merge with the sky. Renewable energy dominated, with solar panels and wind turbines visible on every corner. People worked from anywhere, connected to the cloud, while enjoying the benefits of artificial intelligence that facilitated everyday tasks. The pace of life was calmer, but cities were still a hotbed of ideas and culture. History and innovation coexisted, creating a Europe where the future had already arrived, but remained a constantly evolving promise.

The first thing I would like to see is a world that lives in peace and whose primary goal is to fight poverty. I would also like us all to do our bit to stop climate change or, if that is not possible, at least slow it down. It would also be nice if the richest people in the world gave away everything over 5 million and redistributed it among the world's population. This would go some way to alleviating the poverty problem. It would also be important for everyone to always have access to clean drinking water and not fall ill because they have to drink contaminated water in order to survive. That would be very nice and I would also like to live to be 150 years old and stay totally healthy and mentally fit.

A morning in London
Opening my window first thing in the morning to take a fresh breath of clean air. This was despite living in eternally growing city of London. The air was crisp and without any pollutant smells. It was like being in a dense forest - the scent of trees and nature. Looking across the city I saw the glow of the rooftops - solar panels. Yes even in cloudy London everyone used solar power. This was because the tech had become so efficient that it was now possible to generate enough electricity for the average flat. Looking around I also spotted the buildings that instead chose to opt for green roofs. Vegetation and plants being used as a natural insulator but also to reduce the ovrrall temperature of the city during the hot summer months. Because the summers were getting hotter than ever each year. Thankfully this idea cooled the city down enough for it to be tolerable.
