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?

Viver apenas com orgulho
I woke up feeling that today's work was going to be spectacular. Fortunately, now everyone works because they like it and not because they have to. I don't even want to imagine what it was like in 2025 when everyone had to work in order to eat, have fun or simply live. I give thanks to those who have managed to make everyone choose what they like to be, what they like to do, and they don't even need to be paid for it. Today everything is paid for by the system, what we want we have, we don't have any difficulties and with this there is no crime, there is happiness and as we manage to be what we like, humanity grows more and more, because everything we do is perfect, it comes from the heart, from commitment and from pride. We have become creative beings and human creation has no limits. Today I'm going to improve life in the world, because nothing is so good that it can't be improved. Today I'm going to be myself, because I'm allowed to be, because I wanted to be. Living in 2040 has been the best experience ever.

2040s
By 2040, I envision a world where the fight against climate change has been successful. Fossil fuels have been replaced by clean energy, with smart grids and advanced batteries providing the energy supply. Transport is electric and autonomous, cities are dominated by green roofs and self-sustaining buildings. Agriculture is sustainable, with vertical farms and precision technologies reducing environmental pressures. Healthcare is preventive and personalised, with artificial intelligence helping to detect diseases early. Work and education are digitised, with access to knowledge and opportunities for all. Automation does not take away work, but creates more creative, human-centred occupations. We live in a cleaner, fairer and more liveable world where technology and nature work in harmony.

If we imagine 2040, I would choose to focus on the problem of environmental change and sustainable development. In 2040, I would like to see a world in which humans have managed to overcome the ecological crisis and create a sustainable, harmonious future for the planet and all its inhabitants.

The year is 2040 and Europe is a very different place. Instead of crowded roads, castles have become silent and peaceful marvels of technology. Self-driving and autonomous vehicles drive us through green castles, but the air is clean. Renewable sources of energy are rapidly replacing fossil fuels, making the continent self-sustaining. Each building has its own solar-energy grid, and the windows are smart, automatically adjustable depending on the world and weather conditions. By 2025, there will be a major economic and ecological leap forward. European countries are fighting against climate change, raising standards for sustainability and technology. Greater investment in education has enabled new innovations in medicine, healthcare and display systems. By reducing CO2 emissions, buildings have become areas where people live in balance with nature. Wanderings are a set of trends in enjoyment. With virtual reality technology, you can visit all corners of the world without leaving your home. But, at the same time, personal relationships have become easier, with digital platforms that allow instant communication with anyone, anywhere. The future is coming, and we are its creators.
