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?

Nel futuro
Let's imagine a more sustainable future, in 2040, where technology and respect for the environment have finally integrated harmoniously. In this ideal future, cities have become environmentally sustainable, with smart buildings producing more energy than they consume, thanks to the use of solar panels, integrated wind turbines and rainwater recovery technologies. Transport has become fully electric and autonomous, with shared vehicle fleets drastically reducing traffic and pollution. People travel with ecological means that not only do not emit CO2, but are powered by renewable energy. In the city, green areas have increased, with vertical parks and community gardens improving air quality and creating social spaces.

Technology Advanced.
The 15 years that have passed has seen a leap forward in technology. Driverless cars are an everyday item now. This has led to little or no road deaths and accidents. All cars are electric now. No more gas emissions or air pollution. AI is now everyone's choice when doing anything. Every facade of life is covered. Medicine is all technology now. From autobot doctors to surgical procedures.

Het leven in de toekomst
Houses consist of energy sources with glass that generates electricity, the shape of the houses are more built in the ground. We no longer drive a car but fly around in automatic space planes that work on solar energy. For holidays we fly to the moon and other planets. And all people speak one language

Turvattu talous mahdollistaa hyvän tulevaisuuden
I would like the future to be prosperous enough for a large part of the population, especially in Europe. Prosperity requires politicians and other people in decision-making positions to understand their responsibilities and economic realities. A sound economy makes it possible to pay attention to issues that are important to everyone, such as the environment and good public health. I hope that decision-makers will be able to focus on more than just bottle caps and the number of plastic bags. Ensuring a peaceful environment also requires a strong defensive will. I would love to see countries other than Finland, Poland and the Baltic States seriously investing in defence. In economic terms, I would like Europe to be able to meet the challenges of the U.S. and China. Of course, it requires a great deal of investment in education and research, as well as the use of reason by decision-makers. With regard to the environment, I do not expect a major disaster. Russia could have broken up into several countries.
