Would you rather save the world or the people in the world?

I would rather save the people in the world because it's only them that can make the world a better place. The world is something physical and is not capable of redeeming itself. If its people will be saved, then there's going to be a chance for the world to restart and change for the better.

Obviously mother nature because if the mother nature is left then the human life will not exist.So its very good decision to save the mother nature.

i say save mother nature. ;-) mother nature can not really take care of itself. so i guess, it's up to saving the least powerful. plus, it's worth saving the world for the people to survive still. i like your post.

I would try to save both because i believe we can do both and still end up with a better world. All we have to do is abolish or curb the human activities that are killing mother nature and people and we will be better off. Activities that relate to emitting greenhouse gases, polluting the environment, and deforestation are the ones that i'm talking about. At the same time, the richer countries or UN can help keep peace throughout the world and save people from famines, oppression, and other natural disasters. We , the people of the world can do this. Stop activities thats harming the earth (our home) and our people.

that's a really good question. A conundrum in many respects :) I have to agree with the other posters though that it makes sense to save the world in order to help save the people in it. Good job we are not powerful enough to have to choose hmm? If we all do our bit to help reduce waste and take as good care of the earth as we can on an individual level, I think this would make a huge difference to both the world and the other people in it. It's disrespecting nature and the balance between nature and technology that causes the problems I think. Why should we not do our best to be responsible about both and the way that we interact with them?

If I'm a superhero I would rather save both.But being an ordinary people I can do is to abide laws and be good to all.

I will save the world . If I save the people , people will however die as there is no world and mother nature . If I save the mother nature , then the life cycle will re-begin and once again the human - era would start .
