WORLD UNITY AS A GOAL

THE WORLD OF TOMORROW (cont.)

In a borderless world, governed by universal principles, standards, and requirements, minimums and maximums would need to be set at high, but uniform, levels throughout the world.  For example, requirements for licensing or certification, in various professions, businesses, and trades, would need to reflect the same standards as regards education, experience, and performance everywhere.  In fact, traditional minimums and maximums concerning just about everything would need to be adjusted, so as to become basically uniform and sufficiently elevated across the globe.  A physician practicing in New York, and one doing the same in Kenya, would need to eventually conform to the same high standards; soo too the electrician in Alaska, and his counterpart in Brazil.

A worldwide weather tracking and forecasting system, available to everyone, should be instituted.  As stated earlier, steps should be taken for the worldwide establishment of equally effective protective measures, devices, and response personnel, regarding emergencies and catastropohes related to weather; and resources should be at the ready regarding relief and relocation for the victims of extreme weather-related phenomena, whenever and wherever such might occur.

Charities would of course be allowed to continue to operate.  All should be subject to a new, universally determined, method of validation and standard-setting; and those which qualify permitted to continue operating as locally or universally as they should choose.

All sports activities and events would likewise continue to be carried on as they are presently.  New and expanded communication and contact among people from various places would likely spur interest in sports carried on in one place among residents of more and more additional places.  Thus, expansions among sports participants and audiences would probably asutomatically take place.  This might result in subsequent expansion of "leagues" and other such divisional organizations; as well as in a possible eventuality wherein "World Series" in various sports will mean truly that.

Of course the present worldwide organization of Olympic games would continue.  The athletes, instead of representing particular nations, would come to instead do the same for their particular individual regions.  But the spirit of competition and striving for excellence would likely remain the same--for that is the nature of athletics to the present day; and there is no reason to foreseea change in human nature.

There are numerous other aspects of life on earth.  Some of these would remain the same, while others would become transformed in the natural course of events, as society within a unified world moved forward.  Speculation can be voiced concerning many of these--but they would nonetheless take place in their own fashion notwithstanding such predictions.  In any event, it is rather certain that these alterations, whatever their sequence, form, or content, will comprise an overall benefit to mankind and society.
