More

People lack opportunities to meet the 'other'. World leaders cease to be creative or lack a desire to engage grass-roots initiatives when negotiating for peaceful resolutions to conflicts. Also, war is big business and generates millions of dollars for those in the business of promoting war, selling/buying weapons, and reconstruction after wars - many people profit from keeping us in a 'state of war'.

Can we change the world?

Definitely

Promise to respect others and refrain from spamming?
