There are various political parties in Germany and across Europe who do think like Michael Kopat of Wuppertal.

Besides the Greens Alliance of Europe,

there are many smaller sustainability oriented parties such as BUESA, a party which focuses on international develop-for-all. It runs a campaign under the slogan, “Europe’s future lies in Africa.”

Kopat says Europeans must look at these ideas he has discussed (1) efficiency, (2) flexibility in labor, (3) comfort in lifestyle, (4) environmental friendliness, (5) overall true savings, and (5) fair trade before they vote or support any government or business leader on whatever project in the future.

Sadly, I and nearly 4 million others in Germany will not even be able to vote.

Worse still, in the UK and in other neighboring lands, many voters these 2009 European Parliamentary elections will use there votes simply to punish the present government—not even thinking much to the future of their country—let alone to the future of the world or the continent of Europe.

Likewise, Germans are going to use this election as a test case for signaling what they want their major parties to talk about for the September 2009 national elections--rather than worrying about the world in 2022 as Mr. Kopat does.

Interestingly, it would likely be a red (socialist) and green alliance that could most likely end the current European Union deadlocks on constitution and social legislation.
