Quality of living in Greece

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

IN 2040 I imagine Greece to be a country with more green policies when it comes to energy, architecture and production. I would like to see decentralisation of living, with more infrastructure shifted from urban areas to country side, creating smaller pockets of green cities, accessible to and for people with diverse needs and background. Athens is no longer the point of reference, nor where half the population of the country lives. Education in primary and secondary levels is more openminded, incorportated modern concepts of social justice and inclusion, technology and european identity. The main focus of governance should be placing people in its centre, offering functional solutions for quality living. Cost of living at the moment is unberable. Young people in their 20s, and 30s at the moment have not the ability to start family, bear the cost of living alone or create savings. As such, creating incentives and sustaibale living alternatives in countryside, with provision for quality living, would feed back to these issues.

Ma maison du futur

Anonymous

Always very connected. A detached house that stands on its own. Photovoltaic panels, water recycling. Warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally, I have a greenhouse so I can eat the fruit and vegetables I grow myself. There will also be cameras for my security. I'd really like to see other forms of propulsion for my vehicle developed, with solar panels to recharge my car.

A better future... We drive electric cars, and electricity for them is provided by wind and nuclear power plants. Unsustainable plastic has replaced glass, garbage incinerators with efficient filters have finally made waste pits unnecessary. The air in Polish cities is breathable even in winter, and in summer we are not afraid of drought and lack of water. And instead of armaments, we spend money on health care and equalizing opportunities for children and young people. All this may be, however, I will put it between fairy tales....

I would like to see a future where a major change has been made for the benefit of the environment and the future of the planet. Solar, wind and hydro power have replaced fossil fuels. Buildings, houses, etc. are equipped to be self-sufficient both in terms of energy and basic commodities such as potatoes and the like. Public transportation has switched completely to electric vehicles and there are incredible high-speed trains that can compete with flights between major cities.

When I wake up, the machines prepare the breakfast I usually have (coffee, toast and a piece of fruit). My clothes are ready and are automatically put on me. I take public transport, which flies fast and allows me to get to work quickly. It's not very sustainable, but it's practical. Cycling has become an activity that's losing ground because it's not as fast. Society is going faster and faster. Everything is computerized and doesn't allow for much social interaction, and that's the problem. As for family life, it's still all together in the same house, but that doesn't really make it feel like a family, as everyone is more isolated in front of an electrical device that occupies their free time.
