An overview of the world’s problems & solution, according to the POW in the video:
The Problem – A Global Crisis
As a whole, we’re contributing to a system that’s broken.
- Countries are competing for limited resources and economic domination,
- We’re sucking up resources on our planet like there’s no tomorrow,
- We’re breeding like rabbits,
- We’re strangulating other species out of existence,
- Plastic waste in the ocean is growing larger than most countries with nothing in place to stop it,
- Industries that are harming our planet are so powerful they can prevent or slow down cleaner technology for the sake of short term profit,
- Governments, justice systems, the media – are all influenced by self-interest groups whose actions often conflict with the wellbeing of humankind.”
The Solution – Create A Unified Public Opinion
The more people united in one place, the more powerful their voice becomes.
- Together, through social media, we can influence world leaders and industries to start improving the world as opposed to ruining it,
- We know this will work because history has repeatedly shown us that leaders and industries must follow public opinion, or they fail.”
