OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

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?

Push for healthy living
In a better future, the EU would restrict the sale of unhealthy products via taxation and other actions. I see that average citizens are ignorant and thus their consumption should be controlled.

A message for the New EUrope
I believe in an Europe of Values. A cradle of tolerance, development and education. A place where borders, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, religion and color are just valid opportunities of understanding the human nature and strengthening the motto that defines and unites a continent - "Unity in diversity"! For the young generation the problems of the 20th century are no longer important, or play a little role in their day-to-day activities, constantly forgetting that atrocities like the Armenian Genocide or the Holocaust happened when our grandparents were our age. Unfortunately, the history rhythms and we are facing an illegal and unprovoked war at our Eastern border, that causes hate, fear and the death of hundreds of innocent Ukrainians and leaving a world without words. I hope that we, the younger sons of Europe, will raise our voice for the causes of liberty, democracy and peace whenever and wherever the opportunity arises! Stronger together !

A sustainable world for everyone
We are now in 2040. Europe is a beautiful and peaceful place where all people live happily in harmony with nature. The energy is renewable and shared between people, and thanks to energetic communities it isn't centralized. Sustainable and shared public transport are accesible to everyone in every place. The model of economy is shifting towards a circular one, without overproduction and without a huge amount of waste. The old exploitative economic system, both dangerous for people and the planet is being replaced with a more ethical one. People that in the past worked in unsustainable fields (like fossil fuels) are now working in business that try to solve the damages caused by these things. Also agriculture has changed, and has become more regenerative. Thanks to veganism and artificial meat the sector of animal farming has drastically decreased and the farms left are sustainable and follow the possibilities of nature. Waste and pollutions are decreasing and extincion is stopping. Animals are taking their space and humans have relearned how to stay with them peacefully and they have restored a good relationship with the nature. The humanity is walking togheter towards a fairer and more inclusive world for everyone and restoring healty communities. Climate-caused migrations are decreasing.
