The answer largely depends on the school level, subject, and teacher. It is a good idea to teach students to use physical books, but it should not be an \"either-or\" question.

Cultural activities and creative pursuits for all ages enrich our city and also serve as important enhancers of community. When these are supported fairly, we will surely see savings elsewhere.

In Vantaa, more encouragement could be given for the establishment of small-scale solar power plants. It is not possible to build large-scale wind or solar power plants in Vantaa. However, the city should be at the forefront of promoting the green transition.

In Vantaa, there has been a fairly good effort to prevent one-sidedness of residential areas. Diversifying housing types should still be considered when construction resumes.

If you could give a superpower to your future political leader, what would it be?

The ability to instantly purify the environment and stop climate change.
Invisibility to reveal and combat corruption at all levels.
Time travel to correct historical mistakes and improve the future.
Infinite wisdom to make perfect decisions on all political matters.

Stopping environmental damage and climate change are the only ones of these superpowers that is most realistic and within the political leadership\'s control. That\'s why I would choose this!
