What is lacking in our society? And how to fix it? What can we do to ensure that everyone lives well, that there are no wars and negativity in the world? What can we do so that we can pass on to our children and grandchildren this world in a better condition than it is now?

More attention for the environment and animals is arguably a good start. This recent article explains a little more: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/jun/01/sixth-mass-extinction-of-wildlife-accelerating-scientists-warn

Well said. Our treatment of animals - other animals, because obviously humans are animals, too - is appalling. They deserve better.
And the climate crisis is the biggest issue of our time, with potentially profound implications for the future of human (and animal) life on this planet.

From an economic perspective, the single biggest problem and driver of conflict is inequality. There are several possible solutions that could be investigated, but it is important to note that once rates of return on existing wealth exceed that of new income, we enter a runaway feedback loop. The moral case for a wealth tax is overwhelming.

I think that our society lacks responsibility to itself and our descendants. Technological progress has led us to destroy our own planet. We urgently need to switch to alternative renewable energy sources and completely abandon hydrocarbon energy resources.

A huge tax on wealth is a great idea. Especially now, when there is a great gap between the rich and the poor.
Probably this prevents many countries from developing. Our society lacks compassion, and the desire to just help. People want to be rich, instead of just enjoying life. This spoils the relationship between people.

To fix our society, people need to do these things:
1. Come to understand and believe that they are being saved from death by Jesus... the Bible;
2. Recognize that because of the work the Jesus did, the Holy Spirit is with people, and people can communicate with Him;
3. Obey the law of love towards all people, and use the 10 Commandments as a base until love flows in;
4. Get the Bible on tapes or CD, and listen to 45 minutes of it everyday... going through the whole Bible over and over... listening to the New Testament 3 or 4 times for every hearing of the Old Testament;
5. Attempt to obey what is heard, especially the laws of love towards all people.

Spirituality. This is why so many people can be convinced to stay inside from a disease with a terrifying 99% survival rate.

Organized religions stifle true spirituality, attempting to give human explanations to concepts that we will never be able to fully grasp (such as infinity). They're better than making fleeting pleasures the point of existence, however. Either way, hedonism has become the new religion and everyone is so afraid of death that they never really live.

There is a difference between simply surviving and living. Between being a human insect and a God among men.

The earth is one. For example. Chemtrails change the way bacteria work in the atmosphere. The body has to try to adapt to the changes, because the atmosphere reaches right down to us all.

In addition, even though many formal churches stifle spirituality, we all need to congregate with others who believe like we do. Hugging a tree isn't enough.

It all has to do with the all-pervading Spirit. The Holy Spirit doesn't only exist where like believers are, or with religious folks congregating with others of like faith. He exist throughout nature and outer space, as well.

The trick is, finding the truth of what He wants for us. The second trick is following and obeying that truth. Love, and faith in Jesus-salvation are two of His requirements. Filling up on His Word, the Bible, shows us how.

What is lacking in our society is the lack of human opinion thanks to the shortage of opinion, there's always a stalemate in society we do not want anyone to believe anyone the most important controversy is over religion. nobody hesitates to act anti-social due to the opposition to the present religion That's why I feel faith is so big that we do not follow the faith Society is going to be beautiful as long as everyone believes in religion and thinks positively.

First off all, our society will always be lacking something.
It is and will be impossible to have everyone happy, to have everyone live a great life.
All of us are different, we believe in different religions, we believe in different ways of life...

Of course war should be the last option but how do you fight terror? How do you make sure your society is safe from others that are trying to harm your society for the sake of their religion? Hard Question...

In other words, here much closer...
Treat the people around you and for a fact even strangers with the proper respect... Help people that can't have a life like you are...
It starts by helping a stranger cross the street, or helping them reach something from a shelf in the store they cant reach.
It might be a small thing for you, but you might make someones day that is having a rough day... You don't know what war the person is fighting daily and your smile might make that persons day!

We have different things that society is lacking such as.

1.employment for the citizens and strangers which will make a graduate to fell like a human and also create open skill acquisition for people who are less privilege to engage their self into manual work which will get them a daily bread than stealing peoples properties and money because of lack of money.

2.hospital,some rural area are lacking adequate treatment ,some dies  due to lack of drugs and treatment while government functions is to provide the needs of people in order to aim a living.

3.road construction for some societies who lacks road to convey goods and product to their area, because some people are marginalised due to them don't have good representative in government that will speak out a problem or a condition of a particular society base on that them will be marginalised by their leaders.

4.load, a load suppose to be given to individuals who lacks capital to setup a business by a government, so that a life of a citizen will change because causes of this numerous problem from adults is lack of finance and them need empowerment from government.

5. Free education is suppose to be given to people who are less privilege to train their country in higher institution because not all parents are capable to train a child.
In many societies people are suffering and government don't want to render help.

+1 to this.

But it's not just in regards to energy, it's a LOT of things. We fail to understand that the planet should be preserved for generations to come. I think as of recentley we, as a society, have tried more and more to change this -- but prior generations didn't care.

Run Away Debt? -- There was once a time not so long ago where we WANTED to tackle the debt in our government. Politicans were elected on the idea of knocking down the deficit and bringing forth a balanced budget. That's not a thing anymore -- people don't care unless the opposing party is in power (even then, it's all a charade)

Energy Sustainability and Green Energy? - Nope. No one really cares that much. Though I do truly think that Solar / Green Energy + Nuclear is the way of the future if we want to be sustinable.

Our society lacks Empathy. With every passing day our society is becoming less human.

[Nathanz]

This is a good question. What the society lacks today is equality. There are oppressed and there are superiors. I think that everyone has the same privilege as everyone else have. There are a lot of injustice in today's society and that is because of lack of equality.

[boyptc]

There are many.

But I think, these things. Unity, sense of responsibility, and equality.

These two things will lead the society to no division. Everyone will understand the differences of other people and can easily adjust to the situation.

If we're all united, there will be no wars and borders.

However, these things will remain as a wish.

[Subbir]

Our society lacks Empathy. With every passing day our society is becoming less human.

There is a scarcity of empathy also as social principles and values In our society there are more and more conflicts between people and nobody comes forward to return to an agreement most are busy with their own time. Their values are deteriorating day by day thanks to lack of opinion which is ruining society.

For the average member of the society the only thing that counts is taking part in the rat race. Look around you and you'll see that people around you don't buy things to have fun with them. They buy things to be noticed, recognized for their wealth, envied and they keep doing it to be better than their neighbors, their friends and family. They want to have a better car so that when they arrive at that family meeting once a year everyone will see it and think they're successful. To me this is one of the most pathetic and tragic things in the world.

Responsibility.

People should take responsibility for their actions.  Instead, we get new generations of people who feel the world owes them something.
People who want stuff for free, and feel they are entitled to it.

I think everyone should live more responsible towards our environment, nature and the animals on earth. We need to take care of our climate, it's obvious that something is changing. Every year becomes hotter and hotter and storms and thunders become more severe. Technology advancements are no excuse to be irresponsible with our environment. There is only one earth we can live on, of course there are different planets, but the way of live we enjoy on earth is unique.

What is lacking in society? - Common sense, it is far from common these days.
