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?

Un monde utopique.
France has become France again, a prosperous Christian country where peace and security reign, where it's good to live together while respecting our culture and traditions (gastronomy, festivals, etc.), and where young people, our future, have regained the education they deserve. Everyone has a job, and there are no longer any homeless people or workers sleeping in garages or other insalubrious places. Cities have become clean and welcoming. No more concrete, nature is reclaiming its rights. Our farmers are feeding the country healthily, and industries have sprung up everywhere. Pollution is down. Health centers have solved the problem of a shortage of doctors. Everyone participates at his or her own level and pays his or her share of taxes, and no longer lives as a parasite on our over-generous social system. We're putting the emphasis back on duties rather than rights. Order and authority, without which there can be no freedom, are finally restored. People are happier.

Alimentation du futur
In this better future, I'd like to see our diet greatly improved by eating only things that are good for our health. Everyone could benefit from excellent agriculture. The government will have been obliged to protect this profession by granting them derogations from this Europe that is poisoning them in 2025.

Slibná budoucnost
It's 2040 and we have a more stable internet and the internet scammers, who were still inventing a lot of new scams to get money out of people in 2025, which is not so long ago, are already a thing of the past.They are easy to find and artificial intelligence will alert them immediately.Also MPs are careful to pass laws and contracts because they are not protected by law and cannot live like the gentlemen they used to be,making a pigeonhole of their office.The laws are also there fairly for them so they too pay for their mistakes.And there are not as many of them as in 2025 and they are paid according to what they deserve

Μια μέρα στην Ευρώπη του 2050
It was a quiet May morning in 2050, and Europe had been transformed into a continent that seemed to live out of science fiction dreams. Self-driving vehicles moved silently along the roads, which no longer even required physical roads, as they flew by means of clean energy from solar panels. Cities had become green lungs, filled with all kinds of trees and plants, while skyscrapers were covered with planted facades that filtered the air. What had radically changed was people's daily lives. Artificial intelligence had taken over most repetitive tasks, giving people time to engage in creative and social activities. Europeans were working together in global networks to solve common challenges such as climate change and improving health. One of the most important developments was the integration of citizens in policy-making. Through virtual reality systems, every European could participate in real-time consultations, contributing ideas and solutions. It was a united, ecological and participatory Europe, where everyone could see directly the impact of their choices on the world around them.
