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?

Together on a healthy earth (Όλοι μαζί σε μια υγιή γη)
Especially recently, I feel that in many areas we are not going well. However, two seem to me to be the most critical points for change: (a) the large climate chapter, and (b) the gradual elimination of active citizenship, who is interested in their fellow citizens and the community to which they belong/are part of/live. In 2040, therefore, we will ideally have achieved any change that can still occur in terms of climate change. The temperature will remain stable at current levels, the glaciers will continue to suffer, heat fires will have been reduced, etc. The ways we have achieved this achievement will be holistic and long-term, so that they will have an effect and duration (e.g. in Paris they are trying to unlock rivers and streams in order to bring down the temperature, while at the same time taking the public through the installation of air-conditioning units, which would raise the temperature of at least 2 degrees in the city). Of course, this approach is linked to the second strand of the described future, that of active citizenship. In order to achieve this, the people of the Earth will have changed mindsets, the sense of responsibility we all have towards the planet, not only in theory, but in substance, has been strengthened. The world will have mobilised, realising that changes are not taking place by writing 2 whistle-blower paragraphs on the internet that may inspire a proportion of the world, but so far, but need concrete actions, which are organised, cooperative, shared and mass. As active citizens, we will enjoy solidarity, conspiracy and mutual support for each other’s fellow citizens, building on and strengthening the concept of public space vis-à-vis the private one. Everyone’s altruism, feeling of inclusiveness and empathy will have increased. Every action and every attempt to make a positive change is part of a chain, where each link is linked to the others and it is impossible to fundamentally change the situation if we do not act comprehensively and through all the parts that make up the living system.

Law – Future: future for all (Δίκαιο-Μέλλον: μέλλον για όλους)
I imagine that the problems that currently dampen humanity will gradually disappear, laying the foundations for a fairer society (at all levels: social, economic, etc.), where laws and rules work/apply the same for all. I want to believe that it will be a time when freedom is a right of everyone, not a privilege of a few. It will be a society in which you can live and grow up safely and calm and that people effectively respect the lives around them, the environment and nature.

Winter Helsinki 2050 A (Talvinen Helsinki 2050 A)
Story from Helsinki in 2050 Task Returned In the morning, I wondered the morning of my morning to the link towards a nearby forest. In the morning, street lights ignited with what I close to me and closed behind. After the link, I stayed from the truck’s home and left towards the nearest fast track to which I travelled to the metro station. At the metro station, I got down to the metro. In metro, the clouds built there, when passing the fishing port, are cut off by cloud photographers. Nuostuani from the metro on the railway railway thus Finland’s main railway station In all its old commands. Towards one of the dozens of offices in the centre The buildings that have been working longer than I say that the office is no longer in place since the last pandemic. AVAS computer and quantum computer for which I develop the system. I live today in Tampere, but I now spend one night in Helsinki for work. I will travel to Helsinki by train early in the morning. The train journey lasted only one hour along a new line. Helsinki’s main railway station remains unchanged. It is surprisingly quiet on the outside, since private cars are currently prohibited in the city centre. I am very wondered about a white snow gang that is not used to see in the centre of Helsinki. Cars are no longer dirting it and street heating has been phased out to save energy and carbonise the heat island effect. Prior to my posting, I will visit my homelands of childhood in the Arabian Bank. Pick up from the tram at the shopping centre. The old brick building is in place, but new dwellings have been built. There is no longer a demand for artisanal movements. After reaching the beach, I will see how many grasslands have grown from the genome of an open area that was still grassland for decades ago. There is a clear improvement in biodiversity. Three towers are still familiar along the direction of the fishing port, as the construction project was not completed. The barrels of the Hana Island and Salmisaare power plants have disappeared from the landscape since they closed more than two decades ago. After the works, I go to the evening of the Kaivo Park to spend time before the meeting. The sky of the sun is dark, the amount of waste light has been severely limited in order to save electricity and promote animal welfare. The perception of astronight has also been shown to contribute to people’s well-being. Helsinki has changed for the better from what it was three decades ago. Belated worm and run-off. After getting out of the door, the knee up to the snow and I don’t need to be riaked. I therefore decide to walk and watch the landscape, because I am belated. The end-to-end green corridors of the city show little movement in winter. I need the voices of nature in the summer. Otherwise, nowadays, it is quiet because the volume of traffic is much smaller. So there are few voices, and only a whitle-white clean snow is visible. I walk to work in a calm landscape. I received a report on the increase in Lepidoptera in Helsinki, where I was very satisfied. I have a certain success, because increasing biodiversity has been one of my objectives. It has been greatly affected by the expansion of urban vegetation areas and their naturalisation. After the working day, I will decide to go to the nearby forest to see the stars, which I will do in most of the lunches. They are visible because I no longer have so much light pollution. Then in the direction of the meeting place of my group. We meet and leave at our old secondary school towards Vallia Convenient as today’s roads are white then Is not a brown humour No. Nor does it improve its driving so much No is certainly not an ongoing debate Helsinki did not achieve its objective of increasing the number of inhabitants; ideally leave space for non-residential buildings in the city it is also good in terms of the cost of services, including housing; No Joo fortunately, it has also fallen yes, there would be a lot of people here if more cloud designers were built too, they have a problem this is the case. they do not agilely increase the population they create a lot of shadow that hampers all forms of vegetation; wondered that they did not come; congratulations not much more buildings have been built. No did not need it when older people are already full of the place they have been able to repair administrative buildings have also been saved from the 19th century when they have been renovated, i.e. they have not won’t won’t be able to work in the same way as other buildings. This has been saved yes to forests I remember that, at least in the south of Laajasalo, the construction project was interrupted and the forest is safe It was a stone Indeed. In addition to the voyage of Laajasalo, many more forests have been left natural. Excluding small paths No Joo, but not much of the forest, if one part of the tree takes off the pole and moves further away to allow it to navigate No. No. The story has increased diversity, but much more Dear so, nature is better in the city everything seems to go better than could have been imagined in the past
