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.

Sme generácia, ktorá prestala myslieť na seba.
In 2040, people are not starving, there is a lack of finance, and the food in the shops is not like that of millionaires. Children play in parks, they don't deal with phones, wifi or social networks. Old people walk happily in the streets because they know the state is not robbing them of their pensions. Cancer will disappear from the world, a cure has been found. Humanity is building again but not for the benefit of itself but for the benefit of the earth. A million eco-friendly stations are built. Electricity in houses is free because the largest solar field has been built. Warehouses have been abolished. Waste has been separated and reused. We live in a year when the best breathing is outdoors. When the sun does not cause allergies. When natural disasters have ceased. There is no tornado, there is no flood. And the economy is thriving, we have plenty of water and plenty of sunshine. Every year it gets better and better. We don't have sun scorched fields and we don't have swamps from soils. We are a generation that has stopped thinking about ourselves, we are a generation that has started thinking about the land. We are the best thing since 1900. Maybe that kind of simple thinking has helped us. When we connected the past with the future, so that life would be in symbiosis. So that we could give and take without minus losses. And that's how I would end it. It's a better future not only for people but for the earth.

Nove Slovensko s lepšim porstredim
For the future of our country I wish the political situation to improve. That everyone should have equal rights without exception of gender orientation or other opinion. Today's situation is very poor in this respect and I therefore wish it to improve. I also wish that our government would be more concerned about people and less concerned about itself. I wish that nature continues to grow and that global warming does not get worse. The financial situation of our country is not so bad, but I wish that some jobs or teachers and others would get higher salaries. On the whole, as long as I try and work on our country and do not give up, I think we could look forward to a better future. Because I, too, as a young woman, want a good future for my future children.

Budoucnost
I would like there to be world peace, even though I know that in this short time it will not happen and that there would be a better environment for all as people there animals. I want everybody to have a good time and nobody to feel bad. That there be great technological advances and that the government reveal government secrets.
