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?

My view
It was 2040, and as I gazed out at the city, I couldn’t help but imagine what the future could be. In 20 years, I hoped for a world where technology not only made life easier but also more meaningful. Autonomous vehicles had already transformed transportation, but I dreamt of a future where public transport was fully integrated, AI-driven, and eco-friendly, making the streets quieter and air cleaner. Smart homes had already made living more efficient, but I envisioned a world where homes adapted to every need—customized lighting, temperature, even emotions—through subtle AI intuition. Healthcare, I hoped, would be even more personalized, with nanotech monitoring our health 24/7, preventing diseases before they even started. Education could be completely immersive, with virtual classrooms tailored to each student’s learning style, making knowledge limitless and accessible to all. Above all, I wanted technology to connect humanity—to bridge divides and foster empathy, creating a world where innovation and compassion coexisted.

Cista planeta
People would be more concerned with tridennes of waste, companies would produce products that would be packaged in more recyclable packaging. Individual countries would also support citizens in not treating the planet with waste. I would like the tridenium of waste and the limitation of waste production to be normal for future generations, not something special and strange. I want people to think more about the planet and our surroundings.

Min dröm
In 15 years i.e. 2040, my husband has a well-paid job. we live in the city of Stockholm with our daughters who will soon move away from home. We live in a 5th grade, I still work as a nurse. After work, we often go to the movies, go out to eat at various restaurants. We go for walks in town. I work out at the gym next door. My husband is active in various sports clubs. Our daughters are in their final year of high school and will soon move out into the world.

A bright future, with worries
Following the solution to tame fusion energy, the first large plants are about to start operating with many more in the pipeline. Together with smaller local deep geothermal plants, clear energy in abundance, also generating mediums for different kinds of transportation. Freshwater shortage of the recent past can now be solved with large de-salination plants and cheap/clean Energy. Despite urgent energy and Environmental concerns now is of the past politicians and humans are not as satisfied as one could expect. With Limited needs for labour within Industry and services, humans finds themself with a lot of free time on hand, but enjoy less meaning and satisfaktion. Politicians have understod that assisted suicide is a solution for many, wherefore it has been approved throughut the world, but not for those with a high QI. Turism is restricted to tropical beaches after these been overexpoited following invasion of all humans with time on their hands, and all wants to go to warmer places. We have been sucessful in establishing contact with extraterrestial beinga and developing this while this to great externt have United the different population groups on the Earth, which also have been helped by that we all are singin the Chinese natial anthem
