Security concerns remain high on the world’s agenda. In this year’s annual report, Worldwatch researchers explore underlying sources of global insecurity including poverty, infectious disease, environmental degradation, and rising competition over oil and other resources. “We need a policy of ‘preventative engagement’: international and individual solidarity and action to meet the challenges of poverty, disease, environmental degradation and conflict in a sustainable and nonviolent way,” writes Green Cross International Chairman and former Soviet president Mikhail S. Gorbachev in the Foreword to State of the World 2005. Further details are available at: http://www.worldwatch.org/pubs/sow/2005/
