Pokhudzana ndi mfundo zakunja, pakufunika kwakukulu kwa ogwira ntchito ndi mfundo zomwe zakhazikitsidwa pomvetsetsa kuti zoopsa zazikulu zomwe timakumana nazo ndizovuta zomwe zimakhudza dziko lonse lapansi, ndikuti zitha kuthetsedwa ndi mgwirizano wapadziko lonse lapansi, osati ndi mikangano kapena kukakamiza.
