Our Mission

The most important number in the world: 350. We have to get the CO2 levels in the atmosphere lower than 350 parts per million (ppm) to avoid catastrophic environmental changes. Currently we are at 388 ppm.

 

Watch 350 PPM CO2: Earth's Tipping Point? - Bill McKibben video.

 

If we continue this way this is what will happen to earth by the year 3000. If you say who cares what's going to happen after a thousand years then read this: Global warming already crimping crop production, pushing prices higher.

 

In his book - "Global Warming Gridlock: Creating More Effective Strategies for Protecting the Planet", professor David G. Victor offers realistic solutions to global warming.

Instead of geoengineering which creates more problems than intends to solve why not pursue this great bioengineering solution which was proposed on 2007 and since has been ignored: Environmental Engineers Use Algae To Capture Carbon Dioxide.

 

Because of the global warming it's going to rain more on the west coast of the United States. More plants and trees should be planted to absorb carbon dioxide. The plant that is particularly effective for cleaning and filtering dirty water and is a great carbon sink and oxygen producer is the mangrove.

Peace for Koreas

Unlike never before today we have the capability to end our civilization and annihilate life on our beautiful planet with the use of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Our very existence depends on our choices and responsibilities. We have to choose to live in harmony and peace. And it is our responsibility to prevent any conflict that might threaten our choice to live and prosper. Thus with this in mind, we ask all the powers in the world to help bring lasting peace between North and South Korea. This can only happen if Koreas unite and become one nation and one people.

Proposed Solutions
Climate Crisis

  Here are 28 points for a successful plan to reverse the climate crisis. As you can see it tackles all aspects of life:

scientific, environmental, social... In other words, it would take a complete turnaround, nothing short of a perfect revolution in our heads and hearts.

 

1.    Cut green house gas emissions.

2.    Plant trees.

3.    Make local changes...

  The worst thing that anyone or any organization can do is to make money in the name of the Global Warming. There are many companies and businesses that offer "Green" products or a services, but in reality they just make money by overcharging idealistic people. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of these opportunistic predators.

 

  Carbon tax will not help to solve the global warming problem. It is just another form of a tax.

Global warming should be tackled with simple and practical solutions such as cutting down on pollution, growing more trees and restoration of habitats.

 

  There is only one thing to remember, "Each of us has the power to lift the universe." Thus each one of us has to bring happiness and harmony to our planet.

WORLDCHANGING   CHANGE YOUR THINKING
Worldchanging is a solutions-based online magazine that works from a simple premise: that the tools, models and ideas for building a better future lie all around us. That plenty of people are working on tools for change, but the fields in which they work remain unconnected. That the motive, means and opportunity for profound positive change are already present. That another world is not just possible, it's here. We only need to put the pieces together.
