OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

So Europe in 2040. I would like to see much more cooperation and much less lying. I will talk about that a little later. A green future, of course, but not at any price, a much slower and actually environmentally friendly transition. This is particularly true of the car industry and the jobs in it. I predict that in 2040 a lot of transport will be by air, so cheaper, faster, safer and preferably with minimal refreshment. Ideally, less should be spent on defence, because that automatically means human lives, and deterrence is a children's story. This is where corporations play a much bigger role than politics. So they need to be controlled and restrained. And the money spent on defence should be invested in social welfare and, of necessity, in research and development. Now, about lying. It worries me when the President of the EU, a person in whom I am supposed to have complete confidence, publicly states that, say, Russia is harvesting electronics from washing machines in order to train its army. That the newspapers show a diametrically opposite picture of what is happening on the battlefield. That the EU has lost a great deal from the sanctions against Russia and nothing to gain. I could go on and on. I believe, however, that the evolution of man has not ended, that the man of the future will be more tolerant, that he will erase all the hatreds within him, that he will be open to everyone and anyone. This will not happen by 2040, not even by 2140, but it is already happening. The question that arises is...will there still be a 2040 for us...

Connectivity
Eu is seen not as one country, but as one unit. Nott divided by borders, but bound together by land. Instead of moving toward silos, goods are flowing freely between the countries, improving living standards, economies, and development exponentially. Transportations are eco friendly and connected between countries. EU is is the leading force in the world.

Endlich auf einem guten Weg
Wir haben als Menschheit den Klimawandel gerade noch gestoppt, nun gilt es gemeinsam sich gegen die natürlich immer noch bestehenden Starkwetterereignisse, getaute Gletscher und gestiegene Meere zu schützen. Zum Glück wurden 2035 alle Kriege auf der Erde gestoppt und die Völker sind endlich zusammengerückt. Autokratien, Diktatoren und Herrscher, wie sie in der Vergangenheit Gang und gebe waren wurden abgeschafft um sich auf die Menschheitsziele der SDG der UN zu konzentrieren. Auch wurde das kapitalistische Wirtschaftssystem weltweit angepasst, zum Wohle aller Menschen, dies führte zwar zu etwas geringerem materiellen Wohlstand, doch habe die Menschen erkannt, dass es wichtigeres im Leben gibt als Geld, das de facto ja nur ein Tauschmittel ist. Es bleibt eine Menge zu tun, den 100 Jahre wurden verpennt.

Nākotnē vēlos ,lai cilvēki izmantotu braucamo velosipēdus,katram būtu zemes gabals un pats audzētu pārtiku ģimenei .Vairāk cilvēki domātu ,ka apģērbs jāvalkā ilgi ,nevis jāpērk jauns katru sezonu.Protams vēlos ,lai katrs vairāk domātu par dabu un to nepiesārņotu .Skolās mācītu vairāk par to kā saudzēt dabu un visu vajadzīgo apmācītu ,kas vajadzīgs nākotnē.
