JanStephen Cavanaugh, Ph.D. President, Global Human Development, Inc. Product: World of Nations Humanity can have a world without war if enough of us want it. At issue is the fact that most humans cannot imagine a world without war. Most peace and justice people are against war till they are for it. If a critical mass of us cannot imagine a world without war, we cannot build it. So, the first step if we truly want a world without war is to understand we are not talking about a future utopia, for evil will always be us. Rather, simply, a world without war. This will be a big step to peace on earth, for is that not humanity’s greatest prayer? Please join me in dialogue in the name of Love that we might make this happen. A world without war is patriarchy transformed.

Time running out to meet global warming target: U.N. report SHARE
OSLO (Reuters) - World powers are running out of time to slash their use of high-polluting fossil fuels and stay below agreed limits on global warming, a draft U.N. study to be approved this week shows.
Government officials and top climate scientists will meet in Berlin from April 7-12 to review the 29-page draft that also estimates the needed shift to low-carbon energies would cost between two and six percent of world output by 2050.
Imagine a World Without and Beyond War: The Age of Peace SHARE
If we want to gift our children’s grand-children the Age of Peace, we have to start somewhere. If 2.5% of humanity shows up on September 21, 2104 … this would be millions in the parks and streets … putting peace in action will make the 24/7 news cycle. Show your willingness to stand up for the Age of Peace, and peace-minded leaders will step forward.
Imagine repeating this action on September 21, 2015, and thereafter each September, till hundreds of millions perhaps a billion in the parks and on the streets. It will also be a day when humanitarian supplies can be rushed into war-ravaged peoples. The day when soldiers and warriors can rest, do nothing related to war, join the celebrations.
If one in five of you do this and one in five again to the power of 10 we can launch the Age of Peace.
