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?

The future I imagine would be one without foreign bodies in our country. Where criminal "travellers" are immediately expelled. Where work-shy people do not receive social benefits, pensioners are not fed breadcrumbs. Politicians are finally there for the people and not in their own pockets. Where politicians can be held accountable for their mistakes and have a salary like the average citizen. At last there is peace because all weapons have been destroyed. Where the Brussels bureaucracy has nothing more to say and we in our country decide for ourselves on issues that are important to us. Men and women earn the same salary for the same work. The absurdly high managerial salaries are reduced to a reasonable level. The ugly concrete castles are no longer being built. Every person, every family can afford a home, because the work of the "little man" is more appreciated and better paid. We drive diesel cars to curb the exploitation of rare earths and child labour in this regard. Nature has partially reclaimed its territory. The greatest thing, however, is that at last it is no longer envy and no longer a dispute, because people are all equal.

My imaginary future, less poverty no one has to suffer from hunger, all on the same level, no politicians who warm their chairs without doing anything more democracy more equality, it must no longer exist that people can not care because it costs too much... My Imaginary Future

Finally, we have reversed the trend! Global temperature rise has plateaued and we can slowly work towards a reduction. Melting of our land ice sheets has stopped. By cleaning the ocean of plastic pollution, fish stocks have recovered and we can enjoy the food of the sea without risking its regeneration. Organic farming of fruit, vegetables and cereals has taken off worldwide. The efforts of rich countries in drought-prone areas of Africa have enabled us to revive farming in old agricultural landscapes. Energy development has achieved new successes and reduced our dependence on coal, gas and nuclear power. New methods of renewable energy sources and efficiency improvements have paid off.

Water, health, energy and transport would be free for all. A universal minimum income and a minimum right to housing would also be guaranteed to all citizens, provided they vote in elections for their representatives. Nature would be preserved and intensive animal and plant farming abolished. Finally, all forms of pollution would be severely punished by law.
