What are your ideas, that if you could implement would likely stop our species from warring so much?

I’m asking for a reasonable ones, but if not - at least make them funny :P

    Education for everyone globally. War is, like all kinds of violence, an act or reaction of impotence (psychological term/not sexual).

    It basically means nobody actually chooses to act violently or start wars. They do it because they believe consciously or subconsciously that they have no other options, because they can’t think of any options.

    This is always a wrong assumption, because there is always a better option. The difficult part is to getting people to understand their actual options. Education solves this.

      I agree education is an importante part of the solution. But by itself it cannot be: many people who start wars are highly educated, intelligent individuals. There are many examples, both in old and in modern history.
