The Big Four
War, starvation, poverty and climate
Each of the four plans says what would work, checks it against events up to September 2026 and ranks what to do first. In Gaza, famine confirmed in August 2025 was declared over that December after a ceasefire improved food deliveries.
Ending War
Wars start when leaders avoid the costs, misjudge each other, cannot trust a deal, or fight over a prize. The plan attacks each cause and is tested against Sudan, the Iran war, Taiwan, lapsed arms control and space weapons.
Ending Starvation
People starve because war, poverty or an unbuffered shock cuts them off from food the world already grows. A five-tier plan, tested against the 2026 aid cuts, the Sudan famine, the Hormuz fertilizer shock and El Nino.
Ending Poverty
Two plans for two problems: an income floor and lower living costs in the United States, and growth, cash transfers and health investment in the poorest countries, each tested against 2026 policy and the collapse of aid.
Climate and the Environment
Ten parts, from clean power and methane to adaptation and carbon removal, tested against a world that now expects to overshoot 1.5 C, an oil shock, US federal retreat and rising data-center demand.
The list does not stop at four. Nine more problems cause suffering on a similar scale.
