The content of this blog has been inspired by the life, work and commitment of Sir David Attenborough. Posted May 9 2026.
His continued work has been the catalyst to inspire millions of us to ‘think out side the box’ and try to deliver unstoppable momentum to support his life’s work of discovering every aspect of the planet’s natural world. With everyone on board, following his direction, we can begin to re-create not just a Perfect Planet but help build a robust and powerful Solar System that completely surpass the gains since WW2 and operate way beyond our current wildest dreams!
What does humanity really want – who chooses?
Respected and fully Restored Irreversibly Ruptured
Planet Earth Planet Earth
First, we must agree on who actually owns Planet Earth.
Second, fully understand why this issue is so important to our species.
Mankind has tried for more than 2,000 years, to develop a fair and workable
Planet Earth Governance System.
To date, even within our ‘civilised world period’ we have spectacularly failed.
No solution is anywhere in sight.
Resolving current planet ownership issues (especially territory, minerals, energy and power) is the fundamental root cause of the challenges we are face that, if remaining unanswered will have devastating consequences.
Creating comprehensive Planet Earth Governance Plan ‘fit for purpose’ for the 21st Century is way overdue. No agreed and respected guideline for every living person to willingly follow is totally unacceptable.
To formulate, debate, agreed to one and finally start to implement such a vision, is a massive tall order right now in 2026. Realistically, it will take a period of at least 75 years without major conflicts (to the year 2100) to allow
- important time factor adjustments to take effect
- new technologies being introduced – especially space exploration
- constant progress and regular updates delivering
- continuous proof that we still clearly on track
Ideally, any agreed ‘global’ Charter needs to become an ‘absolute reality’ for at least 70 out of 100 of each one of the planet’s total population. When over twice as many people getting positive change compared to those not wishing change, harmony can only the become the norm.
For democracies, the first past the post format at election times will cease to apply – that is 51% vs 49% outcomes. This will finally no longer be a decisive issue facing incoming parliaments. Everyone on planet earth needs to become totally committed to believing that it is only through a successful fully functioning interplanetary solar system we we finally achieve consensus and not ongoing division.
More importantly though, only through successful space exploration – releasing unlimited resources, with humanity working together in unison can we ultimately resolve our current scarcity issues – turning worldwide pessimism and hopelessness for billions, into provable tangible abundant results. Everyone becoming a winner if the new resources can be shared equally!!
Century 21 could be mankind’s next game changer, but does such a comprehensive solar system plan even exist?
Corrupt politicians, 3 dominant superpowers, new technologies have all combined with decisions made by earlier corporations (specifically the oil sector) and the recent rise of Big Tech giants making such an important shared public document very unlikely.
Collectively, the above group have destroyed any chance of that. Instead they have effectively wiped-out almost all every single UN gain achieved that has been achieved since 1945. Resolving this situation and revitalising the UN is vital. Answers as to how might be achieved, very much focuses on the views of each reader.
Sir David Attenborough’s recent Timelapse to the Future of Earth documentary, released in April 2026 (link at end of article), clearly identified the previous 5 game-changing events that shaped Planet Earth over the last four plus billion years. Life on earth always continued despite these disasters. Is our next potential game changer now too close to call? Attenborough’s continued role might be vital for our planet’s ultimate success.
So, how bad are things right now? Check out this podcast example from a business guru (May 2026).

Superpowers will always be unwilling to relinquish any of their existing powers and will fight hard to retain it. Recent USA tactics to bully Canada, combined with its war with Iran, has significantly damaged their global international prestige, likewise with Russia’s war in Ukraine. Colossal change opportunities now exist.
Can a group of ‘Middle Power’ UN members with EU support, step up to replace the current vacuum that currently exists, heralding a new ethos of global leadership practice?
The 21st Century will be mankind’s next big game changer. Does a comprehensive plan actually exist? Are any of today’s world leaders collectively working to invest in this idea or even start to try to sell it?
Here is one suggestion which might give our leaders a kick start.
Proposed Planet Earth Charter for 21st Century (2000 – 2099)
One Planet.
One Shared Responsibility.
One Future for Humanity.
Ten Global Rules – Providing Steer for Next 75 years
🌍 1. Sovereign Nations
Every country remains free to choose its own governance and cultural path. No sovereignty interference.
📱 2. UN Re-Energised to focus on the development of One Planet, One Nation Thinking
The top leader of the United Nations chosen ‘Vatican style’ – 193 inputs helped by smartphone processes.
🌱 3. Planetary Responsibility
Major global decisions by individual countries must consider its long-term impact on Earth – UN monitored
🏗 4. Global Infrastructure
International cooperation to build major global projects to benefit ALL humanity – UN Monitored.
📊 5. Transparent Contribution
Countries and corporations get ranked for contributions made to planetary wellbeing across the whole planet – UN Published
🚀 6. Solar System Governance
Space resources treated as a shared heritage, belonging equally to each and every human inhabitant.
💡 7. Innovation for Humanity
Private innovation ideas positively encouraged and funded when it’s clearly shown to contribute to global progress.
🤖 8. Technology with Responsibility
Global legal frameworks for AI, robotics, and future Universal Basic Income schemes are rigorously debated and voted on by the UN.
🏥 9. Universal Foundations
Global standards for healthcare, education, transportation, and equal human opportunity firmly established across the planet.
⚖ 10. Justice and Collective Security
UN Legislation will empower Courts system to resolve any disputes between each member country or any conflicts between international private companies.
Moratorium – for the next 10 years all nuclear weapons are collectively stored in one location – South Pole. UN fully monitored.
Superpowers remain able to monitor and maintain their own systems, while being able to inspect and monitoring others.
This will release finance and human capital towards greater economic activity in tackling the climate crisis.
Resolving current ownership issues on the planet limited resources is impossible for the foreseeable future. Trying to do so is a total waste of time. We can only finally resolve the planet’s scarcity issues by becoming space travelers, at least within the solar system itself to start off with.
Amazingly we still have the potential to decide who actually owns the assets or any other resources that might currently exist outside planet earth but within the Solar System.
Space resources must be treated as a shared heritage, belonging equally to each and every human inhabitant.
Agreeing this single global decision changes everything. It is the most critical issue our planet needs to focus on RIGHT NOW.
We can encourage as many space rocket manufactures as we have with car manufactures right now. China has taken the lead on EV’s and Solar at the moment. Competition is in the human lifeblood. It is a good thing if properly and fairly controlled.
We can also engage thousands of private mining operations outside planet earth, just as we have currently operating within the planet. We can create millions of space freight haulers, just as we have on our roads and seas right now.
Every asset either mined or collected from other planets or asteroids and finally returned to earth, can easily become collectively owned by all the living population.
The UN could offer licences or contracts to potential rocket manufacturers and mining operations in the usual way – but co-ordinated and systematic not ad hoc which, if it is allowed to become the norm will only divide wealth and power even more than than it is right now.
Only goods deemed essential for planet earth’s requirements will be allowed to be landed. Private bodies will only bring back goods to the planet that has been authorised. They will only be paid for the goods – raw materials or finished goods (if assembled outside planet earth) that has been contracted to deliver and at a price they agreed to in first accepting the contract.
Just like any trucker shifting car parts, grain or other commodities. The shipper gets paid for the shipping and mining processes only when the goods are finally delivered. They never actually own the goods.
The UN could be used to offer funds to further help new start-ups to develop rocket technology or fund exploration of new space regions. This is already happening. USA funding Musk – Space X and probably Bezos and others, so systems are already operational in other countries including EU and China.
The UN will be able to assess planer earth’s global needs and price commodities commercially. They will confirm where they land, and distribute as needed across the planet through existing commercial processes. NO drastic change needed to current global practice.
Business as Usual Country Level
Each individual country will apply its usual taxation system to raise operational income – charging commercial sellers taxes based on profits and final buyers in shops through traditional VAT routes.
The UN will can some of the revenue they receive from the commercial sales to the space freighter’s to fund major global initiates as a coordinated exercise. These will be essential on massive investments including:
- planet regeneration schemes,
- funding the development of a global hyperloop system
- co-ordinate the establishment of new mega cities to manage global migration issues (an almost certainty).
If these issue remains unresolved, due to weak UN operational power, this will certainly help accelerate humanity towards an ‘irreversibly ruptured’ destiny.
The problems are clear. Creating a re-energised UN and delivering a workable bold plan is the only practical answer. So what’s stopping us. Why are there so many obstacles?
Where does the real power lie?
- Corrupt powerful politicians
- Current status of the top 3 major Superpowers
- Decisions taken after WW2 by major corporations (especially the oil sector)
- Recent rise of the big tech giants
The above factors combined with the advance of technology has helped orchestrate the wipe-out almost every initial UN gain since 1945.
Who should make these critical decisions? Should it be:
• Decision’s taken by a selected few individuals (unelected) based on individual power, wealth and privilege?
• Collective agreements decided by the whole planet starting to ‘sing from the same hymn sheet’?
Sir David Attenborough’s recent Timelapse to the Future of Earth documentary, released April 2026, clearly identified the previous 5 game-changing events that shaped Planet Earth to where it is now over the last four + billion years.
Does he feel Planet Earth’s next 6th Game Changer is now too close to call?
Actually, how bad are things right now – is it overhyped? Check out a recent BBC podcast (May 2026) to help assess the dilemma right now.
BBC Assessment of the Davos meeting in January 2026
Today, despite some very grim realities, genuine optimism still exists and is growing at a rapid pace.
Superpowers unwilling to relinquish any of their existing power will and fight hard to retain it. USA tactics of first bullying Canada and then combining this with a war against Iran has had profound unforeseen outcomes, not the least being the very serious financial consequences to the USA country and its own people, the resulting financial and humanitarian consequences are now acute across the whole planet.
Globally, there is an important switch of presumed and assumed invincibility of their current status. This has resulted is a significant loss of their formally unquestioned international prestige and authority. Russia’s war in Ukraine has clearly shown they are not invincible either.
Thinking the Unthinkable – Middle Powers have finally Woken Up.
It is increasing likely, that a group of ‘Middle Power’ UN members, or potentially the EU on its own, could step up and replace the current power vacuum which, for the moment now, exists. Both organisations working together could be the next ‘de facto’ Superpower leader, before its current players have time to regroup.
The new weapon they possess – control of critical scarce resources – is a ‘chance’ event that’s recently developed as mankind develop new technologies, fortuitously as the very same time that current oil and gas stranglehold of many superpowers starts to diminish. This opportunity is rapidly gaining traction.
Country’s, who are now being previously been threatened on sovereignty issues (by who) are now demanding much fairer democratic guarantees.
Mark Carney and Ursula von der Leyen, working with countries like Australia, India and Japan can collectively enforce their own critical Game Changing rules, including signing new trading partnerships, developing financial non-dollar payments systems and impose their own tariffs against threatening superpowers, which can surprisingly work both ways – for good and bad!!
A reborn UN, that’s re-energised with collective and sufficient power can deliver perpetual change in the rest of Centaury 21, not just securing just another 75 years of perpetual turmoil.
This document was not penned by some rich, influential or powerful person, just a very ordinary person who is 100% focused on saving our precious planet.
Planet Earth’s next Game Changer can be an astoundingly positive one – not only accelerating the return towards a pristine Planet Earth, but building an amazing and successful Solar System in the process.
Heroes like Sir David Attenborough would probably endorse many of these ideas, if they ever got the opportunity to review.
Sir David’s first centenarian task – acting as a potential World Leader – who is better qualified – could be to ensure two key things: implementation of such a charter and keeping its direction on track.
If these ideas resonate with you, please forward this blog to any potential friends/contacts who may be able to help – an eBook (first edition) with expanded details is needed for every 193 UN nation (Chat GBT ?) ideally before before Xmas 2026. Alternatively forwarding this to any person who may be able to organise this to go global would be fantastic.
Please email if you feel you could help.

Giving Sir David Attenborough, Mark Carney, Ursula von der Leyen (and others) an opportunity to consider these thoughts would be massive first start!
