Worse for most, good for few

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.

A Sustainable Energy Future in 2040
I’d like to imagine a future in 2040 where sustainable energy has become the global standard, eliminating our reliance on fossil fuels. In this world, solar, wind, and fusion energy power cities efficiently, with smart grids optimizing energy use in real-time. Every home has access to affordable renewable power, and transportation is entirely electric or hydrogen-based.

The EU is economically strengthened and consolidated. As regards military security, the EU has an army responsible for securing and defending the border (so-called professional army). Every EU citizen between the ages of 18 and 25 is obliged to work for 18 months, alternatively in the social sector.

The family in 2050 is very valuable because children are needed for the future . Parents do not have to be annoyed with the pursuit of money although of course they go to work . Children have enough attention in the state establishment both kindergarten and primary school and other higher institutions and there is even time for them to play with their parents . They go out in the fresh air to play and the household is cleaned by robots . But even so , children learn normal duties and proper behavior and division of time for playing , working or studying . The teachers are not afraid of the children but the children have respect . Health care is available for all within a short distance .
