Between science and culture, a new hope, but without fear. (Tra scienza e cultura, una nuova speranza, ma senza paura.)

I would point out that imagining life in 2040 is not very easy. But this can change over these years both the relationship that nations have with scientific progress and their local cultural sources, such as monuments, museums and so on. In many cases, these two aspects of a nation and, by narrowing the scope, of a society or community, are not valued as it should be, since in my view they are two complementary aspects: the first concerns technologies, innovation, investing its future in gradual progress also of human civilisation; the second is the centuries-old contribution of the wider artistic traditions, from painting to seventh art through books and music. I therefore believe that this development is needed on the basis of a substantial financial base and collective action by all, as culture and science go hand in hand. Valorising places of cultural interest and local artistic heritage and encouraging people to take a scientific path from school education onwards, so as to direct many people to these very broad fields of knowledge, is of paramount importance, as it develops various transversal skills and advances in the development of their own critical thinking. To ensure that we do not remain stuck to the metaphoric iron ball that keeps us anchored to the ground of ignorance and neglect.

Un futuro sostenibile
In 2040 I would like a completely sustainable world, with renewable energy, green cities and green transport. Technology would improve life without harming the environment, ensuring well-being and more free time. Climate change would be under control and people would live in harmony with nature.

Hopefully someone will read it and take action. There is an urgent need to solve the housing problem. Creating a family is practically impossible if you have to be in a rented apartment at a high cost, from which the owner of the apartment with a small child can throw you out sometimes grazing him. It is no wonder that there is a decline in fertility in the EU and in lust if young families do not have a basic condition for creating families. Social security. No one asks you how much money you give a month for rent, and you don't get a loan at the bank, which installment would be less than what I'm paying for renting now. Where is the logic here? No wonder people emigrate from their countries to countries where conditions are better. There is no security either, these refugees, whom you say are doctors and engineers, and in fact ordinary monkeys are incapable of adapting to the civilization we have here. They are dangerous, endangering girls, children and senior citizens. You better pay the workers who do the ordinary work well, but there will be enough labour in the EU. On the other hand, we give ourselves a social contribution, beautiful apartments, while we Slovenes by nationality Europeans have to literally mantra to get a rented apartment.. nonsense. Let Europe take care of its people, you will not solve the migration problem in the EU, you can only solve it at its origin! Thank you.

I would like to see an environmentally friendly world where the economy is more evenly distributed between people, where we take care of the environment and animals and have environmentally friendly technology and development. We have a democratic policy that can work together despite ideologies. We are more self-sufficient and don't need to import that much anymore. Domestic sustainable production is favoured. We have a shorter work week and we live a more sustainable life. We eat less with meat and have free healthcare including dental care and optics. We have lower rates of sick leave because of this. We value other influencers, fillers and cosmetics. We have a balance between birth rate and death rate. We invest in research, inventions and industry that lead to sustainability. We invest in preventive measures to avoid crime and war. We work in collaboration in many areas to cope with all of the above. We also work to prevent corruption.

Futuro di pace
I wish that in ten to twenty years my grandchildren could live in a world without wars. I would like that, once the disastrous Putinian period has passed, even in Russia we return to live with the widest freedom. May all the peoples of Europe live in complete harmony and enjoy all the freedoms that a man needs.
