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?

My ideal future (My ideal future)
A better future demands more things to be improved, so I would like to see a very different life in 2040. Firstly, in my ideal life, I would like people to be more literated beacause, in my opinion, lack of education is the main cause of a lot of problems. The educational system will be far more different and well organised so that students will love going to school and think that it's not overwhelming. People won't be afraid to express their feelings and their personality. People won't be judged about their skin color, their sexuality, their origin or their religion. As for jobs, community will offer a lot of vacancies and more people will be occupied. As for technology, I would like to see eco-friendly cars that won't cause air pollution.Even the big cities will be full of green. Another issue that needs to be solved is living conditions. I hope that some day homelessness won't be a problem. I think that my future will be an ideal place and very indifferent.

A safe world with more opportunities.
In the future, I imagine a world with less air pollution. Nowadays, environmental pollution is one of the biggest crisis our society has to face, because if nothing is done, in less than 100 years there will be serious problems, like extinction of several animal species.On the other hand though,with technology's dramatical evolution, It is sure that a solution will come up. Also, in a more local level, in the future, I think that our educational system will give students more opportunities to follow a path, that may be more suitable for them. With our current educational system, student's choices are very limited and students that may want to follow a profession (like art or music) will have to apply for specialized schools , that have very limited positions. Luckily, people seem more open-minded nowadays, so it is most likely that things will change in the near future.

A sustainable future (A sustainable future)
In 2040, I see a Europe and especially a France where the global warming is taking way more seriously than it is nowadays. A place of progress around energies, transport and everyday-life of each and every one. I see a respectful way to live with fauna and flora.
