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?

Urban Harmony: A Sustainable Future
If I were to imagine the future in 2040, I would focus on environmental sustainability, particularly in relation to urban living. In this future, cities would be designed with green architecture, featuring vertical gardens and solar panels integrated into buildings. Public transportation would be efficient and predominantly electric, reducing carbon emissions significantly. Aquarium ecosystems would be thriving, with advanced technology ensuring clean water and healthy habitats for marine life, promoting biodiversity. Communities would actively participate in conservation efforts, and education about sustainable practices would be widespread. Overall, this future would be characterized by a harmonious balance between urban development and nature, leading to healthier environments for both people and wildlife.

Το μέλλον που θα ήθελα.
It's 2040. Each house is almost autonomous energy, through photovoltaics on roofs and windows, as well as small wind turbines. A smart system regulates the home according to the needs of residents and society. There are so many trees in the area that the need for air conditioning in the summer is minimal. We leave the house and are friends with our neighbors, regardless of race, erotic orientation, religion and color. We are not afraid of racist and state phallus attitudes.

Bleščeče življenje
I assume that things will change very quickly as well as in the positive both in the negative direction. I wish I could meet my grandchildren and participate in the upbringing and enjoy every opportunity I have to spend time together. I wish I was healthy and virtual as well as physically and mentally. I'm not worried about new technologies because they also have a positive impact on our lives, I try to be up to date and if I don't resist it. I hope to be able to travel around certain countries because I would like to see quite a few sights.

Оптимистично за Европа
In 2050, I imagine that, at last, the liberal globalists who wanted to unify the continent, to make it the same everywhere, to entangle the population in order to turn it into a petty faceless and homeless mass, are being swept away by the power and leadership structures of the European continent. I imagine it as a place that is not invaded daily by migrant Huns, but each country carefully guards its territory and protects its ethnic and cultural heritage. I imagine it as a place where, going to Amsterdam, you meet the different culture of the Netherlands, and not all the same McDonald's and shops as ordered - even in the same order, in all other cities and countries. I imagine it, after all, as a locomotive of the world, which Europe once was and which it is not at the moment, because liberal globalists have taken over this territory and follow their fixed ideas of closing nation-states, depersonalizing peoples and unifying the whole territory. Ultimately, I am optimistic that normal and sober thinking will prevail over utopias.
