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?

Il futuro sognante
The future I would expect in 2040 points to people's awareness of having respect for nature and animals. Each house will be equipped with photovoltaic panels received from the incentives of the state and each country and each small fraction will have its own school so as to be able to have a united society and you will use less the car and more the bicycle. Next to the sidewalks will be planted trees so you will have oxygen and cool for the summer. There will also be respect towards the next and strange expanded , health services and saranni opened animal first aid. In southern Italy they will open ecological and green factories and give work to many people so they will avoid emigrating to the north and will remain in their country and there will be no more disparity between north and south.

IL RELAX NEL 2040
Finally the working week ends.... and since we passed to 30 hours a week we can enjoy the weekend much better... especially thanks to the many low coast flights that allow us at ridiculous prices to move me, my partner and our 2 dogs in every European capital, where we can indulge in large ecological and technological spaces..... settling in very basic apartments but equipped with every technological comfort and without moving a finger with only the use of our voice to fully enjoy all the comforts of the house, until we order in total relaxation every good god of food indulge in the most varied cuisines worldwide! Food aside to fully enjoy the city with all sorts of technological and green means of transport x us and x our furry

Water
Water continues to concern us. Many countries are already short of water. We really need to do something about that. The seas are full, and we are going to make sure that all this water can be turned into potable water, to the extent that we need it. So every country , every city and every person will be able to be supplied with potable water.

Feb. 21, 2040: Today is the day of scientific culture and intelligence of all European citizens. A day where finally there are no more people who see conspiracies on the part of medical, nursing and research personnel, placing, moreover, in the right position, the pharmaceutical companies as well. These, for their part, will see to it that they are less financially greedy. From this day forward, no one will protest and run away or hide only if the word: vaccine is mentioned. On the contrary, people will know that it will be a most useful weapon to fight diseases and will blindly trust those who have worked so hard for them in research laboratories. There will no longer be anyone to rough up a doctor or nurse, because everyone will have understood that they are necessary and essential. They will be essential again: trust, education, respect, common sense and study. Children and young people (I speak in the masculine because that is how Italian grammar wants it) will be enthusiastic, because they will be able to attend school and there will no longer be school dropouts due to changed mentality and economic situation, while parents will no longer allow themselves to beat up teachers, but will politely discuss what will be best for their children. In short, finally a world on a human scale, naturally supported by technological progress.
