A Universal Deceleration of Human Responsibilities

"The following draft of human responsibilities seeks to bring freedom and responsibility into balance and to promote a move from the freedom of indifference to the freedom of involvement"
I read this quote and thought, "how are they going to make sure this happens?" In my global studies class I am in this quarter, my professor said that there is still a lot of racism around the world, mostly in the southern countries or states such as Georgia or other states around that area. I thought this particular quote was talking about racism mostly and how there is still inequality in our world today.
"If human beings maximise their freedom by plundering the natural resources of the earth, then future generations will suffer"
Reading this quote, I thought of another point that was made in my GS150 class. The fact is is that the U.S. alone consumes about 25% of the natural resources in the world. This is a shocking number, considering we are probably the smallest country out there. Imagine if another country consumed the other 25% of the natural resources. This really makes you think about how much people take things for granted and we consume so much.
I think these articles are so interesting because it gives you some ethics to live by and I think that is something society needs sometimes.
"Every person has a responsibility to respect life.  No one has the right to injure, to 

torture or to kill another human person.  This does not exclude the right of justified 

self-defense of individuals or  communities" Torture could included racism and that is something that still needs to be abolished around the world.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading these "responsibilities" and it would do the world good if they lived by these articles and human responsibilities.
