Wars or Weather?

I was thinking today about whether wars or weather would start to reduce world population more. The conclusion I came to is that both will reduce world population especially starting in the 2050s and 2060s.

But, here is the caveat. At the same time all this is happening there is also another factor which is communication by Internet, by Skype and other freer services and by phone worldwide. Also, there is another factor which is Google Translate and other translators. In order to begin to solve worldwide problems there needs to be worldwide consensus of what to do. Otherwise, when one group tries to do something to help they are often hurt or criticized by other groups not fully understanding either the problem or the potential solution.

So, worldwide communication is one way to build consensus for useful decisions being made to counteract serious problems worldwide. Without real consensus and enough people worldwide understanding more fully the problems to human ongoing survival on earth, wars and weather will continue to kill, hundreds, thousands and millions as the years go by.
