If you could change something about this world, what would you change?

Question

This world that we all live in is a very diverse planet. We share the top rank above all animals therefore making us have the utmost responsibilty in what we do. Because of the positive and negative actions that come from these responsibilites, there are consequences. What would you do to change some of the things that we as people do?

Answer 1

I would like to erase "money" from the face of everyhuman being. Wars , amunitions, bombs are produce and sold because rich countries and rich people are craving for more and more. They never think of global warming, malnutrition of poor people because they are too greedy about money. Although they face the mass media showing concern I believe they are not really sincere.

Answer 2

I feel that people , as a whole , are not able to comprehend the future results of their present actions. Even at the individual level people donot understand , fully , the cosequences of their poor food habits , living style and they suffer later with heart diseases, diabetes , cancer etc. Then , what to talk of their responsibility towards the earth?

If I were to change something about the world I would use this vast explosion of technology to project the 'future' world to the people and how it would affect their children. Global warming , deforestation, water scarcity are some which the large population mock at when one talks seriously about it. Nobel prize recognition is understood by a small number of people. For the rest it is another award function lke grammy award!

You know , the persistant campaignagainst smoking , banning smoking , warning about smoking etc. has brought down this scourge considerably.This is what I mean about other issues.

Answer 3

If I had the power, I would make certain that no couple ever had more than 1 baby.
All of mankind's problems stem from this one thing: overpopulatin.
Pollution, global warming, war, disease...all of those evils are due to people having too many babies.
60 years ago, people were starving to death by the millions in Bangladesh. Now, people are starving to death by the millions.
Humans are the only animal that keeps having babies when there is nothing for them to eat. (Yes, most of the 6.7 billion people on earth are going hungry!)

Answer 4

I would change our system of education from "what to think" to "how to think." Most of what we are taught is based on opinion, some qualified, some not so qualified, and we are told what is correct, proper, etc. Perhaps it would be better if we taught children how to assess and analyze, how to decide if, and what, motivates the provider of the information, and then to decide if the information is worth knowing, worth acting on, worth supporting. Ideals are fine. Facts are fine, but how do you make reality better? is a question they need to answer as soon as they can assimilate information. Children seem to be naturally altruistic to some degree, so why not teach them to assess situations and let them work toward a better world and better lives for themselves?

Answer 5

Well, first of all, I would change the evil people's mind to stop killing people, then I would tell everyone to grt up and do something about polution, then I would go to sleep.

Answer 6
