Unless everyone grasps the importance of having only two children per couple, wars won't be over just oil anymore, they will be over water and food.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No one really wants to send their kids off to die for oil.
I think if we understand better the impact of war on women and children, we might be more careful about the wars we start.
The number of children is not growing any longer in the world. We are still debating peak oil, but we have definitely reached peak child.
Something's very wrong with a nation that would rather spend money on war than take care of its children.
War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.
Wouldn't it be great if we could look forward to a whole world in which no child will be left behind?
If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.
Our children are not going to be just 'our children' - they are going to be other people's husbands and wives and the parents of our grandchildren.
We would love to have other children. It hasn't happened. We haven't been lucky enough.
There's not going to be any one replacement for oil: we need to have hundreds of solutions to this global issue.
