Top 5 World Problems
Week 4
Problems:1. Wars in the name of religion. How can so many different religions be the one almighty true religion?
2. Terrorism and the effect it is having on the world. No one like being scared to walk around in their own city with a possible terrorist act being committed at any time.
3. Climate change and what it is doing to our planet. How can anyone not notice that the earth is changing and it is due to our emissions?
4. Nuclear weapons need to be nonexistent. How is a nuclear weapon ever going to be used? The first one to go up will send all the others up and the world will no longer exist.
5. Famine in any part of this world we live in. With the amount of food that goes to waste each day, how can people be staring?
Solutions:
1. *The International Climate Change Agreement needs to be mandatory instead of voluntary. Countries that deem it too expensive to do anything about their emissions is not going to do anything.
2. *We need to end this once and for all time. It is not a matter of politics anymore it is a matter of keeping humans safe and secure.
3. *We need to come together and discuss what it is that makes all the other religions wrong and how is it possible for there to be so many GODS.
4. *Somehow the governments need to get together for their people and the people of the world and find a way to harvest the land that they have, and also supply adequate water to those areas.
5. *Just get rid of them all. There is no place in this world for weapons of such mass destruction.
I chose the “Wars in the name of Religion”, as my top problem because I believe that is where all the terrorism is contributed too. To me it is unbelievable how so many people can get upset over an entity that is based on a belief. Nothing more than a belief.
I chose “Climate Change” as my top solution because we are so close to an actual resolution. We know what needs to be done, now we just need to inforce it all around the world. No country should be exempt from it because it is going to affect us all, as it already is.
I found it very interesting that you focused on conflict. I feel that we often overlook such a major issue. If we are unable to make peace between each other then we will not be able to accomplish more complex goals.I also put Climate change as the most difficult solution. We have to come to international agreement before we can see any real changes take place. Great List!

DeleteI agree that solutions on climate change is one of the more feasible way so far for many countries to deal with the problem. And it makes a lot of sense for you to say that terrorism is a serious problem, but it may not be the most serious one. After all , in terms of number of people being affected by the problem, global warming may be a more urgent issue right now.
