Top 5 World Problems

Problems:
1) Dirty water is everywhere. People in developed and undeveloped nations are unable to get to clean water. In developed nations, often the issue can be one of personal greed opposed to an inability to provide clean water in an easy way. In undeveloped countries, it can often be an issue of transporting water to an area that can't find it themselves. 

2) Americans are no longer saving as responsibly as they should. The numbers are staggering. No one considers retirement with the weight that Americans used to. The future is hard to read when Americans are unwilling to take care of themselves. It will fall on us to cover the publics butt when they retire. 

3) Racism is an ongoing structural issue around the world. People are affected in every region of every nation. It's a far cry from defeated. This is especially important because often the world believes that because we are running out of enslaved populations, we are no longer racist. 

4) Tuition costs are globally on the rise. It's of the highest importance for students to be able to enjoy an affordable education. Affordable education is how we ensure a self sufficient working class. If the majority of people don't have some form of higher education, it's much easier for society to ask for others to support them. 

5) Honey bee numbers have been on a horrendous decline over the last few years. This is globally a big issue because honeybees are the reason so many of our plants get pollinated. Without bees pollinating many of our flowers, we would be watching so much of the nation and worlds floral beauty crumble. 

Solutions:

1) If you can't bring the water to the people, it can often be pretty simple to find a way for the people to clean the water themselves.

2) One way to combat this is to talk about racism in public ways that brings it to everyones attention.

3) One way to offer more affordable education is by asking the government for increased funding.
4) We can help to change this by informing people of the importance of retirement and saving.

5) We can help the bee population by providing them more habitat and providing minimally invasive means to control their predation.

Justification:
I believe that a lack of clean water is one of the most crippling problems the world is facing today. I think finding a way for people to bring water to themselves is pretty simple, and its relatively easy to issue some sort of vehicle to bring water to and from villages in undeveloped country. I believe the honeybee population is far from the most important issue, and it's difficult to find a solution that is practical all over the world. It's easy to say we should grow habitat but much harder to actually do it.
