Top World Problems:
1) Global Warming
2) Terrorism
3) Poverty Rates
4) Disease
5) Corruption
Solutions (Most possible to implement to least possible to implement
1) Countries need to get together and sign environmental treaties that will lower the production of emissions into the atmosphere.
2) Medicine should be made readily available and cheaper for those in poorer countries who cannot afford them.
3) More money from the governments of each country should be spent towards helping poorer people gain a foot back in society.
4) Teach the youth to be less violent and to love one another. Also fight against those who are terrorists.
5) Countries with governments that are corrupt must be corrected and helped out by other stable countries.
I picked Global Warming as my top problem because this planet is the only planet we know of that is suitable for life. Without it, we are nothing. We need to focus on saving our environment and giving a stable home for our future generations.
I picked the corruption solution to be the hardest because sometimes it is hard to prove that a country is actually corrupt. It is also hard for non-corrupt countries to get involved in another countries' business without starting unwanted conflict.
Hi Andrew!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your outline of the top 5 world's biggest problems. I totally agree with your order of hardship as well. Global warming is a huge problem and interestingly enough, it never occurred to me -- the argument that earth is the only inhabitable planet. Obviously it is, but for some reason I never thought of it this way and it took me reading your post to realize this so I assure you that I will be a lot less harmful starting now! We should be taking care of the only planet that we can live on, not taking it for granted. Thanks for sharing this awesome post.

Andrew, I believe that world terrorism is a larger problem than global warming at the current moment, but totally see your point in why your list is the way it is ordered. We could possibly be the only species to kill off ourselves, which could come by terrorism, mass destruction, and nuclear war, or from global warming. I am not sure which will come first, but have no doubt that one of the two will be a major issue within the upcoming years. If you would like to check out my blog, we had some very similar top 5 issues:
