Top Five Solutions to the Problems Ordered

1.      Data Security - In my recent class, computing in the business environment, I learned that it is very important to make sure your employees are educated and aware of the potential threats. Also not just employees, but also educating the public will be very beneficial.

2.     Poverty - We can create jobs and wage increases where needed and earned. Sometimes it only takes that one extra person to get a job or a raise to lift that person out of poverty.

3.     Water - One way to fix this issue is to educate people on the consumption of water, not just taking shorter showers, but consequences as well if the problem isn’t fixed.

4.     Pollution - One way we could go about fixing the issue is by using or burning resources in a more environmentally friendly way or finding a new way all together for that specific job.

5.     Nuclear Weapons - One solution would get everyone to come together at the UN and get on the same page and find solutions to this problem.

I ranked Pollution as my top problem, because there are a lot of people in this world who just don’t care. Pollution is something that is only going to get worse if we don’t take action. It’s not just bad for the environment, but as very bad for our health, especially air pollution. Out of my top five problems and the solutions to those problems. The problem with the most implemental solution would have to be Data Security. Stored data for a company can be its biggest asset and all it takes is a little education and some software upgrades and you’re good to go.
