>It seems that we really have not evolved so much as we thought! At least we are aware of our shortcomings, now fixing them is another matter entirely! That would take a change of consciousness on a 'global' level (or at least 'national.')
Definitely global. The entire world is interrelated nowadays; there are lots of problems that require global cooperation, global consciousness, etc. We also need some sort of world government, world federation, or similar, since stating of good intentions isn't enough; there has to be some way to enforce global rules.

Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
