Threats to world stability, peace, prosperity and progress are due to Nuclear Proliferation, stock piling of weapons of mass destruction, improper security arrangements or improper building construction of Nuclear Power Stations for the production of electric power, further, air, water and sound pollutions due to increased industries, factories and vehicles emitting greenhouse gases and also provocation and perpetration of religious terrorism. Further, deforestation for the expansion of the industrially developed town exploiting natural resources for energy, raw materials and food has created the situation for long droughts, sudden floods, unseasonal rains, destabilization of ecological system and changes in Nature.
Scientific and  			technological developments in the modern world in the name of  			civilization have deteriorated cultural values, degrading artistic  			values and works of mankind and the existence of human world would  			not be possible. So, all kinds of materialistic developments,  			modernization and enhancement of standard in all walks of life are  			necessary but not at the expense of human values and human culture  			in the world. Hence, technological surprises, political ambition and  			religious fanaticism should not make man mad but help him promote  			international brotherhood, love and peace for everyone to enjoy joy  			and pleasure in the beautiful and beneficial creations of the world  			better than before but not worse than as at present. 
Danger of Nuclear Weapons
The dangers of Nuclear Weapons capable of mass destruction in some  			nations are threatening the peace and stability of the world  			forever. So, peace talks, normalization of relations among nations,  			disarmaments and promotion of world unity are the compulsion of the  			time so that another world war can be avoided and unimaginable  			destruction to the world much more bigger than the devastations  			caused by the wars of the world so far can be wisely stopped in time  			for the well being of the world. After the cold war it seems the  			Super Powers have stopped stock pilling of Nuclear Weapons. But  			after them, the second line nations that are technologically  			developed or developing such as China, India, Israel, North Korea  			and Pakistan have entered into arms race for their own individual  			reasons. 
So, America came forward to stop the arms race by making such  			nations sign the treaties such as Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty  			and Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. As these treaties look to be  			discriminatory in nature, India refused to sign them. Therefore to  			overcome the danger of Nuclear Weapons, the only way left is the  			Nuclear Power nations should be persuaded by the UNO and the  			international community to destroy weapons of mass destruction by  			themselves or dismantle the nuclear weapons and use the nuclear  			fuels for useful purposes like the development of nuclear power  			plant for the generation of electricity utilizing nuclear chemicals  			from the weapons and so on. 
Terrorism  			
There is no boundary for terrorism in the world. That too Islamic  			terrorism goes cutting across the globe. This type of international  			terrorism is the real threat to peace and security of the civilized  			nations of the world needing to be curbed by the joint efforts of  			all the nations. Including the communist countries, the world  			nations are giving top priority to the elimination of international  			terrorism, which has become much more dangerous than communist  			infiltration in the world. 
In the course of the medieval period, when Islam was spreading in  			North Africa, Middle East, Central Asia, Southern Europe and South  			Asia, Arab traders and rulers adopted Jihad or holy war for eight  			months in every year against other religious people, confiscated  			their properties, distributed them among poor Muslim people and  			converted them to Islam religion by force. But now that type of  			medieval religion, which was supposed to have developed to Sufism in  			spite of sectarian feudal fights between Sunnis and Shias, has been  			hijacked by terrorism, degrading divine spirit as well as human  			spirit to animal spirit, cannot stand before the noble wrath of  			modern civilization and the world religions as well, which have  			developed to mysticism or devotional stage up lifting human spirit  			to divine spirit.
After the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center of USA,  			the unanimous decision to weed out terrorists and their supporters  			giving asylum for hideouts with monetary aids, is being implemented  			and still more vigorous and hot pursuits would continue to put a  			permanent end to international terrorism though it manifests itself  			in any form and name in the world. In this respect Russia has done a  			wonderful job so far and stands as an example to others.
Next, China is positively cautious to deal with this problem in  			cooperation with other nations of the world. But Pakistan, calling  			itself to be one of the members of the international coalition  			against terrorism, is supporting cross border terrorism and  			terrorist infiltration in Kashmir under the pretext that terrorism  			in Kashmir is freedom struggle, though Kashmir is the integral part  			of and cannot be extricated from India after 60 years of  			independence. 
India, which is successfully facing terrorism for the past 20 years  			has at last made the international community realize the intensity  			and formidable nature of terrorist menaces perpetrated in Kashmir  			under the aegis of Pakistan, whose intention of wresting it from  			India has never been successful. So, without the international  			pressure over the adamant, hostile and unstable nations,  			international terrorism cannot be rooted out once and for all.  			Hence, unanimous hot pursuits have to be carried out against  			terrorist nations so that peace and prosperity may get another  			chance for their survival in order to make this world a better place  			to live and as one human world at least in the future.
Protection of Nuclear Power  			Stations
In the present unpredictable situation, it has become a big problem  			to protect Nuclear Power Stations in many nations of the world as  			most of the nations are opting for nuclear energy to produce  			electric power needed for domestic and industrial purposes. So, the  			probable threats to the safety of nuclear power plants lie in the  			materials used in the construction of the buildings, the danger  			signaling devices in the machines or the inbuilt auto precautionary  			measures adapting system in the plant and the 24 hour security  			guards for the protection of the plant in and around the compound,  			if any damage is caused anywhere in the plant by the sabotage  			activities of the terrorists, blast or leakage of nuclear materials,  			and would lead to radiation hazards to the surrounding areas causing  			diseases and deaths to lives of all forms by pollution in the  			atmosphere due to nuclear radiation. Therefore the best course of  			action to overcome this dangerous situation would be to change over  			to other sources of energy available in Nature such as solar power,  			wind power and water power for the generation of electricity used in  			the appliances of everyday use in various projects and for the  			consumption of domestic and commercial purposes.
Pollution Problem
Pollution, which is day-to-day problem, if unchecked, uncontrolled  			and unsolved by the efforts of all the nations, will be a big threat  			to the very existence of the Earth one day. Air pollution, water  			pollution, land pollution and sound pollution are the problems faced  			by almost all countries in the world today. Because of pollution of  			all forms global warming, droughts, floods, cyclones and all changes  			in nature have become common things through out the globe. In spite  			of all these unavoidable incidences or natural calamities, polluting  			activities are unabatedly carried out by industrially developed  			nations. To solve the global pollution problem, Kyoto protocol was  			drafted after having detailed discussions by the countries of the  			European Union; but it was ignored by USA due to the fact that the  			implementation of the protocol would be economically a big loss to  			it. Likewise even today many nations cannot make commitments by  			signing the protocol due to the same reason i.e. economic loss to  			them. 
Due to these reasons there is nothing that can stop the greenhouse  			gases or carbon gases emitted by technologically developed project  			works and transportation of various vehicles creating holes in the  			atmosphere that are very easily allowing sun's ultraviolet rays  			affecting human beings with skin diseases, eye diseases, etc. Also,  			as the untreated toxic or chemical effluents coming out of the  			industries are mixing with the rivers, lakes and seas, many  			biological species are extinct and the tragedy to rare species are  			still continuing unchecked in various parts of the world. Further,  			due to sound pollution caused by the noise of the vehicles and horns  			and uncleanness due to accumulation of rubbish in many cities of the  			developing countries, people are ever suffering from some kind of  			diseases and health problems, a common thing everywhere. So, unless  			pollution problem is solved by the joint cooperation of all the  			nations time will come, when nobody can even breathe clean air in  			the world!
