The 21st century has brought us closer than ever before, but this closeness comes with a price. When a factory pollutes a river in one country, it can poison the fish that another nation depends on. When a financial system collapses in one region, it can cost jobs thousands of miles away. These are what we now call global issues – problems that simply refuse to stay within the lines we’ve drawn on maps. This article looks at three of the biggest challenges we face together: poverty that just won’t go away, pollution that travels wherever it wants, and inequality that keeps growing between the haves and have-nots. Drawing on recent research and what experts are saying, the article argues that we’re not doing enough, partly because many of us don’t fully understand how these problems connect. In the end, it suggests that if we want things to get better, we need to start thinking like citizens of the world, not just citizens of our own countries.
