We believe that within this website lies the only solution to the creation of World Peace
So far, nobody has shown us to the contrary

Welcome to Worldpeace.org.uk
No-one can solve all the world's problems. To try would be to dissipate one's energies and achieve nothing. The best thing we can do is to focus all our efforts and attention on just one problem and hope our endeavours will make a difference to it. That immediately creates the dilemma of which particular problem to solve. It may be a matter of personal preference, or it may be a matter of perceived priority. Given that the best way to solve a large number of problems is to solve one at a time, which one of the following major international problems would you choose to resolve first?
| Global warming | Natural disasters |
| International terrorism | Deforestation |
| Endangered species | Pollution |
| Poverty | Child exploitation |
| Contaminated drinking water | Illegal drug production |
| Oppression of women | Famine |
| Overpopulation | Energy crisis |
| Third world debt | World health problems |
It's not an easy choice to make is it? The difficult thing about it is that by selecting one option the others are left neglected and unresolved. The one thing that all these problems have in common is that the more money, resources and manpower you allocate to them the greater improvement you are likely to effect as a result.
Now let us consider another world problem: international conflict and the escalation of arms. This problem is converse to the others in that the more money, resources and manpower you allocate to it the WORSE it gets:- one side engages ten thousand men in battle so the other side engages fifteen; one side spends two million on weapons of mass destruction so the other side spends three. The more armies and weapons there are the more dangerous the world is, and it all has the potential of going up in smoke and achieving nothing except destruction!
If the problem of potential conflict could be resolved to the extent that all this spending on arms and manpower was no longer necessary, then not only would some of the other problems be prevented from happening in the first place, but also all the money, manpower and other resources allocated to (so called) defence would then be freed up and made potentially available to any number of the other world problems we have been talking about.
Therefore our submission is that given any person can only really devote their attention to solving one major problem in the world, then the preferential choice for that problem should be to attend to the matter of international conflict and world peace, because of the beneficial effect on all the other world problems. That certainly is our choice, and we hope that a sufficient number of people reading this will agree with us:
I agree that world peace should be the issue of priority to deal
with (continue).
I prefer to devote my attention to solving one of the other
important issues (exit).
