As world hasn't gotten into an agreement about changes regarding the climate change the world has gotten much warmer. Population has either started shrinking in areas that are no longer easily habitable or started moving towards better areas which are now getting crowded.
This of course affects health and wellbeing of the population.
Technology/science rushes forwards with the possibility to live off planet sooner rather than later it seems that the option is only for the most wealthy. It is true that technological breakthroughs could also make lives easier and better but at what cost? There are always those who'd profit which in turn makes benefiting from said progress expensive for everyone. Working definitely might change with automatic/remote controlled robots or such. But still the lower classes would'nt have that luxory.

Notes about the quiestionaire. The given/estimated 5 minutes is nowhere near enough time to collect thoughts/visions about possible future. Also there was no option to decline after clicking the link in email as there usually is.

Un idéal

In 2040 we are much more in solidarity with each other, the great fortunes have redistributed a large part of their profits for research and the fight against inequalities. Thanks to ambitious programmes, we are about to put an end to global warming.

It's a sunny winter's day. No more wars and the world is in harmony. Everyone around me is reasonably healthy and there is a cure for cancer thanks to research. Inflation and purchasing power remain more or less the same. The economic situation is improving and the refugee crisis has been resolved. People's fears are no longer being exploited by the media. That's all I want to write.

By 2040, people have become more aware of the animal suffering that comes with a piece of meat on your plate. Fewer and fewer people will eat meat and replace it with other foods. This will also reduce the greenhouse effect and give nature a helping hand. People get fewer physical complaints because they eat healthier and because of this there is also less unemployment among workers. Because we eat fewer animals, that space is exchanged for more nature, which increases biodiversity

Friede und Freundschaft für die Rasse Mensch

Some sunny day in the summer of 2040. I walk in the city park and see the people who also want to go outside to enjoy the day in the sun. They play with the dog, have fun with their children, do sports or just stand together in a small group and discuss everyday things. There is peace in the world, so there is no fear of attacks, acts of terrorism or air defense sirens. I am approaching a group of people – they are my neighbours, all normal and very nice people. They all welcomed me warmly when I moved here a few years ago. We all welcome each other and discuss briefly what we want to do on the weekend. Everyone has suggestions and we briefly discuss everything and quickly agreed on one of the activities. We easily arrange a meeting point and a time. I look forward to showing and telling them about my homeland again - as well as Hassan from Afghanistan, Ahmet from Turkey, Josip from Hungary, Alexandrej from Russia and Mike from England. All just normal people.
