1) One major problem is the worlds major water problem. As we see in Michigan, the water is polluted and will only get worse. Withe the human population drastically increasing, pollution is on the rise but the amount of water is decreasing. The two simply aren't going together.
- One way to improve this situation is implement stricter laws on the pollution that is causing this issue and try to get people to help save water and stop wasting it.
2) The extinction of major species that we rely on is also becoming a major problem in our country. Animals that we rely on are going extinct and that might even lead to humans becoming extinct as well.
- A way to improve this situation is to hire more officers to stop the illegal poaching of extinct animals. Also just as the water issues, make stricter laws on illegal poaching on extinct species.
3) With the current war we are in as a country, war has become a big issue in the United States. Yes, we should stand up for ourselves but the amount of families that are suffering due to the amount of soldiers dying needs to decrease.
- A way to make this issue feasible is to use more technology than soldiers itself. With the amount of inventions that we have, we need to use way more of it to protect our soldiers from dying.
4) The amount debt this country is in is terrible and is a huge issue for us going forward, We continue to spend spend spend but don't think about the amount of money we actually owe. We are trillions of dollars in debt and need to find a way to fix it.
- we could either raise taxes or cut back on the amount of imports the we are bringing in. That would cause us to make products ourselves that would cut back on the spending a little bit.
5) With oil being a must need across the world, oil has hit its peak in production. This is a major issue because most of the world rely on oil production to get through every day life.
- A way to improve this situation is for different countries to start making its own oil. This would maximize the oil production across the world.
6) The population across the world increases every day with the amount of people in every country. As rewarding as he and are to the world, it actually could become a huge issue to the world. As we bring in more people to the world, more items are needed for them to survive on.
- A way to help this issue is to stop poaching the extinct species so they will hopefully become unextinct. Also countries could implement the amount of kids each family has. This might not be a good idea but the amount of people could actually become a problem.
7) Isis has become a huge problem not only for our own country, but for the world. Isis is out to get every country and is a huge problem to everyone's safety.
- A way to eliminate this issue is countries come together and get rid of ISIS. This might involve fighting, but it would be worth it to get theses people away from everyone.
8) Global warming has been a huge issue for a long time across the world. This is a cause of people over using the green house gases. Ocean temperatures continue to rise to higher temperatures and the rise in sea levels.
- things that could help global warming is activities such as driving less or car pooling, recycle, use more solar energy, reduce waste , and use less hot water.
9) With the continue rise in global warming, climate change has become a huge issue as well. Global warming is causing the burning of fossils and the increase in temperature. climate change is causing the melting of polar ice and a change of seasons.
- A way to help this issue is to decrease global warming. Global warming is the main reason why climate change is occurring across the world.
10) Obesity is another huge problem that continues to increase across the world. people are becoming more obese every day and is making or world very unhealthy.
- A way to solve this issue is to eat less fast food and eat more home cooked meals. Also, people need to find more time to exercise on a daily basis.

ReplyDeleteI think you came up with very probable, sound, and effective solutions to each of the major problems you listed in this blog post. Well done Zach!
ReplyDeleteGreat list Zach! Some of these issues are definitely relevant to the world and especially the U.S. I like your comments about stopping poaching and looking out for our American soldiers. Give a look at my blog if you would like! http://kevindoanent3003.blogspot.com/2016/01/worlds-biggest-problems.html
ReplyDeleteHi Zach,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed really your post on “World’s Biggest Problems”. Just like you mention in problem #8, I also chose Global Warming as one of the ten issues. The possible solutions that you mention are really good, but I think that the main solution should be investing in more products that will not damage the environment in the long drive, as driving less or carpooling will only help reduce the damage. The issue of the water is also really important. Many times, we do not realize how close to the problem we are. When I mentioned the issue of clean water in my post, I failed to mention the problem in Michigan.
