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?

Бъдеща Европа
Europe's future lies in a fully united Europe. All the countries of the continent now use a single currency, it is easy to travel to another country. The flow of immigrants has already decreased, because in Asia and Africa, where the immigrants are mainly from, several countries have been united and, with the help of the United Nations and the Great Powers, their standard of living has been raised and stable countries have been built. The welfare of Europeans has increased with the use of natural technology and the development of high level fusion for the use of cheap energy. Actions to protect the environment have had their effect on the continent's climate.

Egy fényesebb jövő…
It's 2040 in Hungary, and the beginning of the last 15 years has portrayed a very gloomy and pessimistic vision of the future for the people. But there was a glimmer of hope in the person of one man, disillusioned by the regime, who realised that this could not go on and gave voice to the anger and despair of the people. *Here's the idea* In April 2026, the regime was overthrown, in 2028, all the corrupt pro-government people were dismantled and brought to justice. By 2030, public services were restored, the people were in a much better mood. By 2032, agriculture was restarted and the country was back to its former glory. By 2035, the country was one of the most liveable in the European Union. And now, in 2040, I tell my children about the years of oppressive rule and then we plan a holiday together. /I dread to think of the other outcome :( /

Život s manje stresa
People would return to living in suburbs and smaller towns and cities, more attentive to nature and self-sustainability. They would have more green spaces, maintain their eco-ways and landscapes. Children would again play on playgrounds and have more time with their parents. Cars would be smaller. There would be more parks and lawns in castles, and people would have more greenery on their balconies. Radios would be shorter, and the radio day would be 6 sati. Life would be more orderly and less stressful. People would travel more by train, there would be fewer tourists and less traffic.

Švari ir tvari aplinka. Teisingas vaikų švietimas.
Topic: Environmental protection and children's education. This includes a clean environment and electric cars, and no polluting cars such as diesels. People will be more tolerant and understanding and there will not be so much littering and accumulated rubbish. The melting of glaciers will be at least partially halted. People will be more environmentally friendly. For education: children will potentially be fully equipped with smart technology, with a choice of subjects and more interaction with teachers.
