„Zeleni svijet ravnoteže: Održiva i pravedna budućnost“

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Let us imagine that I am in 2040, and that I live in a future characterised by sustainability, balance and social justice. A topic that for me would be crucial for improvement is climate change and the way in which society uses energy and natural resources.

Ideally, in 2040, the world would certainly become rapidly decarbonised. The green and renewable energy market would be dominant, and fossil fuels would certainly be eliminated. Solar panels, wind turbines and other clean energy technologies would be widely available and standard in everyday life. Buildings would be flooded with green, with smart systems for recycling, efficient use of water and minimising waste.

Transport would be 100% electric, and public transport would be efficient and accessible. Self-driving cars and other technologies would enable a freer human protocol, reducing congestion and pollution. People would live in buildings that are designed to offer a high quality of life, with an emphasis on cycle parking, pedestrian zones and smart buildings that use a minimum amount of energy.

The society would be less divided, with an emphasis on justice, social justice and access to education and health care for all. The health and well-being of the eaters would not only be focused on physical health, but there would also be more efforts to initiate mental health, social and emotional support.

This future would be marked by people's connection with nature and interpersonal honesty, and by the development of technologies that do not take into account the environment. The key promise would be to educate all of us about the importance of a sustainable life, where we would actively work to reduce our negative impact on the planet, or to improve inter-human relations in a global society.

2040 début de la sobriété énergétique
on january 1, 2040, the european union will ban all individual vehicles, whatever their mode of propulsion. Subsidies have been distributed European citizens to invest in bicycles, be they 2-wheelers, 3-wheelers or family sedans. All cities are pedestrianized, and to get from one city to another, or from one country to another, numerous train and streetcar tracks have been created. The entire agricultural system has been overhauled and intensive productivity banished. Sobriety is on the march

Leben in 2040
As I'm getting older, I want to live as lightly as possible. Less work in the garden and more relaxing on the terrace. Everything should be as easy to reach as possible, i.e. shopping facilities, doctors, hospital, swimming pools, physiotherapy practices, etc. There are also plenty of "meals on wheels", as people hardly ever cook for themselves anymore. Cabs should be free so that people are a little less dependent on public transport. Everything should be easily accessible on foot or in a wheelchair.

Klimaneutrale Bildungsfreundliche Zukunft
I imagine that mobility will become much more individualized - there will be cars/small aircraft that drive autonomously and can be called up at any time from wherever you want to go. Of course, the vehicles are climate-neutral and connected in such a way that there are no traffic jams or delays. Our education starts from an early age (even in kindergarten), there are appropriately small groups/classes. The teachers are well trained and can respond well to the children. So that they learn to enjoy education and feel self-efficacious and open up the world on their own. In school there is no more learning to forget but more knowledge to apply and how to learn. Because developments are very rapid. There won't be one profession that you learn for life. There will be no more truck colonies with enormous consumption, the electricity will come from renewable energies, at every house, garage, crash barrier, etc. Electricity can also be easily stored induvidually. Natural disasters are becoming fewer again, the weather is stabilizing.

Wird ein Traum Wahrheit?
I am now 86 years old and still feel really well. The last few years have not been easy, with the war in Ukraine, the fighting in the Middle East and political unrest in all countries leading people in a right-wing direction. Plus politicians who only had their own power in mind. It was difficult, but the common sense of the majority of people has led to a stabilization and consolidation of the political situation. It is important that the people have not drifted further apart and that common ground has once again come to the fore. We can actually be proud of Germany and its poets and thinkers again without feeling ashamed. The economy has become stable and the price hikes have come to an end. Children are getting an education that prepares them for life and makes them strong and intelligent. No one has to worry about falling ill and not being able to pay for necessary medical treatment. And why? - At last, everyone pays into the pension, health and long-term care insurance funds. Politicians are also paid according to the performance principle and are not rewarded with adequate pensions for poor performance or mistakes. It was a tough fight, but it was worth it. Oh yes, and pensioners are no longer a burden, but their lifetime achievements are recognized.
