Four priorities and programs for the world development

The most important problems and priorities of the world are: a) overpopulation, b) destruction of nature and the environment, c) poverty d) egoism and lack of social education. Following we will explain each one.

1.       Overpopulation

In the last 100 years the population grew more than in the rest of the humanity history; this has been a consequence of the advance in the science and technology. The trend of high growth has augmented in the recent decades and the perspective is that at mid and long term will be more intense. But the problem is that the resources do not increase in the same proportion.

1.1.  Solution

A solution is to develop a global campaign of education to promote the responsibility and to highlight that a family most have only the number of children that a couple can care, this mean, to feed, educate, to give medical assistance and to assure an appropriate home.

The campaign must be accompanied of concrete medical programs developed by the governments to help the population to reach the objectives.

2.       Destruction of nature and the environment

The world shows evident signs of the nature and environment destruction: climate change, contamination of the sources of water, pollution of the cities and too many other problems that affect the health and quality of life of millions of people.

2.1. Solution

There is no one solution because the environmental problems are innumerable. However, we can do something concrete to help the environment: it is a global program of reforestation, which might contribute to restore the balance of nature and to improve the quality of life of the people. The reforestation is an effective way to diminish the climatic change effects and, moreover, to protect the threatened sources of water.

3.       Poverty

The key to combat the poverty is the employment: good and stable jobs with fair salaries. To reach those objectives would be necessary to carry out three plans: a) a program of job training, b) a program to increase the number of jobs in the economy, that we have denominated the double working-day and the half working-day (1) and c) the creation of millions of ecological employments, through the global program of reforestation proposed in the previous epigraph. The countries might create permanent activities to plant and to keep diverse kind of trees for different uses and this would be a concrete contribution to the solution of the jobless.

4.       Egoism and lack of social education

They are the cause of the most world problems.

4.1. Solution

A solution is to employ the immense power of the mass media to create in the world population attitudes to favor the economic and social development; they are: a) To promote the responsibility in the family that, among other duties, require to have only the number of children that a couple can care, b) to protect nature and the environment, especially, to keep the forests, do not contaminate the sources of water and to do a rational disposal of waste and c) to develop campaigns of public health to teach the population rules to prevent the spread of illnesses.

5.       Conclusion

Of course, these ideas are not the solution of the humanity problems, but its application might create better conditions of life for millions of people worldwide. This kind of initiatives must be promoted by institutions of international influence, like United Nations and the World Bank. Without the sponsorship of those agencies the programs would not be possible. So that in the hands of the leaders of the United Nations, Ban Ki- moon and the World Bank, Jim Yong Kim, is the possibility of to realize these initiatives.
