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?

People's lives should be changed for the better. They must have access to education, preventive analysis and food. Money, whether physical or online, should be accessible in order to benefit from the aforementioned services and from education. In this way, people will evolve and crime will be eliminated. Life must be lived with joy, good deeds and abundance. Prosperity is not a luxury, it is everyone's right.

Αθήνα 2040: Μια Βιώσιμη Πρωτεύουσα
Let's imagine Athens in 2040, with an emphasis on the issue of climate change. In 2040, Athens is a model of sustainability and innovation. The streets are full of trees and green parks that offer coolness and fresh air. The buildings are covered with green ceilings and vertical gardens, which not only improve the aesthetics of the city, but also reduce the temperature. The city operates exclusively with renewable energy sources. Everywhere you see solar panels and wind turbines, while electric cars and public transport reduce emissions to a minimum. Residents have embraced recycling and reuse, significantly reducing waste. Water resources are managed intelligently, ensuring that there is no waste and that everyone has access to clean water. Technologically advanced management systems help prevent floods and save water. The inhabitants of Athens live in harmony with the environment, enjoying a healthy and active life. Communities work together to create sustainable neighbourhoods and care for public spaces. This is the best future I envision for Athens in 2040, where climate change has been tackled with determination and life has improved in every aspect.

In the future we should have accessible and high quality technological means to have a financial and social help in our future daily life as citizens of the European Union that can help countries to keep at a higher level of research and promotion in a better and efficient future without inequality and human errors. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Harmony with Nature: A Sustainable 2040
In 2040, I imagine a world where sustainability has become the foundation of all industries and daily life. The future I envision is one where cities are built with nature, rather than against it. Buildings are powered by renewable energy sources, and green spaces are abundant, not just for recreation but also as integral parts of urban planning. Transportation is fully electric, with zero-emission vehicles dominating the roads, and public transit systems are efficient, affordable, and accessible for everyone. Waste is minimal, thanks to a circular economy where everything is recycled or repurposed. People live in harmony with the environment, making choices that prioritize the planet's well-being. In this future, environmental preservation isn't just a trend, but a way of life that ensures a healthier planet for generations to come.
