As outlined in Chapter 2, humanity is desperately in need of world government. Global political/military tension and upheaval among nation-states suggests the very real possibility of the outbreak of a planetary conflagration—even involving nuclear weapons. Additionally, the global warming phenomenon/crisis indicates the outstanding need for a worldwide regime governing humanity’s interaction with the environment. The Star Trek franchise posits a future with Earth having a world government, pointing to both the geopolitical and environmental reasons for such a government.
