These were some of the posted goals for the New Millenium. I think that if you are a person that is interested in helping (humanity) in any way, one of these various targets in improving this world might give you an idea. This is cited from The United Nations Chronicle, an online magazine that informs on world issues. A goal that I think should be included is the outlawing of wars. If you have any ideas, feel free to add them to the list.

An Idea
An idea is larger than the universe.
I felt that it was necessary to clarify and summarize some of the ideas (in developement) so as not to confuse whomever reads this blog.
Since high school, I've been interested in the idea of unity. Everywhere we go, we encounter some sort of issue that relates to unity. Whether it be some local disagreement to a greater problem that is more complex and harder to deal with. My interest and my 'hobby' will be to try to find a way to bring greater unity within earth. I sometimes think that its ridiculous to imagine such a thing. But i'm pretty sure that back in the 1900's it was ridiculous to imagine that some day we could go to the moon, for example. If an idea exists, then everything is possible.
I am not trying to pretend to be something I am not. I do not want to get something out of anything except to think and to grow, to expand the way I think, and to hopefully do something that will help people out. I do not know the answers, I do not know the questions. I think. I think dumb things and not so dumb things. If you prove me wrong, then you have done a greater good than you have ever imagined.
My name is Marco. I will always be glad to hear from your thoughts, your ideas. However, my goal is to bring unity, and I will take into account the ideas that will push what I believe in into that direction.
There is always a reason of why things don't go in a harmonious way. Problems of a global scale are harder to solve as long as there exists doubt, interests, distrust, and unfair competition.
Famine, disease, inequality, human rights, environment, destruction of culture and all of those invisible problems of which I am not aware of, are some of the issues that will never be solved unless we all are in the same page.
Accountability is one of the biggest reasons of why things are or may not be solved. Who is accountable for the responsability of 100's people dying? The United States? Brittain? Saddam Hussein? Europe? Who is accountable for the spread of disease? Who is responsible for human trafficking? Immigration? The corrupt?
Who is responsible for hate among countries? A president? Dictator?
Who is responsible to make things better? Us? If there is no established system, then the us part is unfair.
Accountability by international standards is politically existant. However, the reason why we continue to have the 'problems' on a global scale is because I believe that there is no true accountability.
I believe that the world is truly what we make it to be.
At this point of my life, and with the knowledge that we possess, I imagine that we are a product of this earth, along with all nature. Earth is ours, and we belong to Earth.
This world is not ABOUT countries and boundaries. This world is not about territories and money. We were born into all of that.
All of that exists to maintain order and structure, but we can choose to teach a different mentality.
The way we relate to everything else that happens in the world from our standing point of view is Nationalism.
Everything that is done in the modern era is for a "nation." This type of mentality is extremely old fashioned - I would say medieval and yet we continue with this type of mentality. The most wealthiest nation and its leaders sponsors that type of mentality. We should be proud of our culture and our roots, but nations are imaginary boundaries created to separate people (and improve organization, for that matter).
A piece of land today costs 500 thousand in one spot whereas yesterday 10 thousand. Its all imaginary.
In today's standards a nation grows powerful to serve the people and nature. Why should there be a limit on the aid of people within one nation? How could we continue to get wealthier and richer while hearing what is going on in other places? Obviously, someone somewhere in the other place of the earth is getting damaged and getting poorer.
What I am aiming for is an Idea. I do not envision nor do I see it credible to create a world-wide organization within my lifetime. In fact, the United Nations already exists. I am not the first to think about "how to solve problems in the world." I believe that there are sensitive people that do more than think, and those that have done more.
What we should do next. We carry the key to solve the greatest riddles of human nature and we will not act on it, why?
The world is about the world and its inhabitants. That is real. There can be no alliagaence in nation because they appear and dissappear. Time changes, and destroys if preventive measures are not taken into account.
Nations should continue to serve the people and nature. However, our vision on who we should have allegiance to should be greater than that of a nation.
The truth is that one of these days, our life will come to an end. Mass extinction is real and it happens. I see that if there is no organization that is able to protect us then all that has been developed, the life, all of it will cease to exist. I also see that our life will be full of hypocresy, vain, selfish (happy, but empty), if we allow the current system to continue without helping our brothers and our roots and our blood elsewhere within this planet. If we remain un-united, then we will self-destruct. Its not even the people that will lead us into that. All it takes is the wrong leaders at the wrong time. If we have a common way to communicate, freedom to share without the worries of retaliation, and allow ourselves to unite by law, then the only thing that we have to worry about is nature! Shouldnt that be our ultimate goal?
The majority of the leaders of the world are located here, within these borders, (I believe). However, they are limited to help only one nation (ironically, we all came from other nations in a previous generation)... the original inhabitants have been dismantled.
There should be respect for an organizational/governmental system that guarantees my ability to live freely.
However, I have more alligeance in the unity for the people.

Global Manifesto
This Blog is a Work in Progress.
It will be updated as knowlege progresses.
Purpose:
United Countries of the World is an idea that will surface in the future. Many experienced, educated, and sensitive people to the many aspects of life will manifest this idea through their goals, beliefs and actions..
This idea is based in a higher level of organization within society. It will eventually surpass the national-level organization to a world-wide organization that will shift all of humanity's goals for a more productive society.
United Countries of the World would become the ultimate form of organization within the planet.
At the bottom of this page, you will find links that relate to legislation pertinent to the improvement of humanity. Also, you will find below a "Composite Global Manifesto," which is the ideaology shared from other sources, and is driven towards the betterment of humanity and global organization.

-Recognize the role and actual purpose of the human race within Earth.
-Further develop and visualize the path of the human race within Earth.
-Guarantee the survival of the human race for many future generations to come.

-Continue the fight for equality regardless of sexual, demographic, social, and racial background.
-Provide economic, health, educational opportunities equally to all humans.
-Represent and allow the equal surfacing of all ideas.
-Protect each individual country from idealogical homogenization.
-Remodel destructive competition between nations into constructive competition.
-Improve the productiviness of the human race with its natural resources.
