I think that the world is running in the direction it should be running. The Holy Spirit of GOD has been with us and will continue to be with us for a long time. But that doesn't mean that we as humans and stewards of this planet should not come together to solve the problems. We are here for a reason, and when you find that reason it can be a life changing experience in itself. I think that the greener the planet gets the better off we will all be. We must push our politicians into accepting that fact, and work towards that goal one step at a time.
