To see what a one world government would be sorta like look at the European nations that have combined recently under one monetary system. Even having only one form of money some countries are greedy and just spend, spend, spend, while others are careful about their spending and have a stabilized economy or at least an economy that has a much better control of itself and isn't in deep debts.
Everything we produce to consume that we currently throw away as trash needs to be recyclable with the appropriate laws to make it happen.
How about making stuff that actually lasts decades instead of being made to break only after a short time?
What about a laser fired type of waste disposal plant in which every single piece of trash is atomized and vaporized?:shrug:
