The document discusses several problems facing the modern world, including wars, terrorism, discrimination, unemployment, famine, acid rain, global warming, and diseases of affluence. For each problem, potential solutions are proposed, such as promoting tolerance to prevent wars, directly fighting terrorists, enacting anti-discrimination policies and programs, improving vocational education to reduce unemployment, developing sustainable agriculture to prevent famine, reducing emissions to mitigate acid rain and global warming, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to avoid diseases of affluence. The presentation concludes by thanking the audience.

in order to intimidate other people.
Terrorist organizations:
Al-Khaida
IRA (Irish Republican Army)
Red Brigades

5. Solutions
 Direct fight with the terrorists and terrorist
organizations
 Increase the protection of physical and
technical vulnerability of the building
 Reducing the ability of terrorists to continue
thier work
 Reduce financing of the weaponry and
explosives
 Concessions

6. Discrimination
 Discrimination is a worse treatment of a
person because of some features, for

 Construction of much higher chimneys
 Use of special burners, placed on the
exhaust pipes
 Energy saving by the thermal isolation of
houses and buildings

14. Global warming
 Global warming is the rise of the average
temperature of Earth's atmosphere and
oceans since the late 19th century.

15. Solution
 Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by
reducing fuel combustion
 Check the efficiency of electric and internal
combustion engines to improve the thermal
isolation of buildings
 Use natural gas instead of petroleum
 Replace individual central heating
installations
