About us
- Michael Bailey

Michael is experienced with educational endeavors designed to advance understanding of how the ocean’s microscopic plant life is essential for sustaining the ocean food chain and can help slow down global warming and climate change.
He has organized international speaking tours pertaining to how natural microbes can be effectively used by organic farmers, animal husbandry, zoos, water treatment, and can benefit human health.
The balance of economy and ecology, that is world finance and environmental value, is one of Michael’s primary initiatives.
Michael’s expertise in domestic and international political matters is exemplified in the successful passage of the United Nations ban on high seas driftnets, That General Assembly Resolution successfully saves the lives of over 1 million dolphins, 4 million seabirds every year. Driftnets were a serious financial threat to the world’s salmon, tuna and billfish fisheries.

The World Optimization concept has been gestating for over a decade as Richard and various friends and associates have considered the scope of work needed to achieve true sustainability. Of course it involves being responsible stewards of our only home planet; and developing the best options for all the beings inhabiting it. Eventually our thinking evolved away from specific “on the ground” causes, and we realized that a more comprehensive “airplane view from 30,000 feet” was needed to understand and encompass the wide range of issues confronting humanity, in hopes to optimize our world.
Now semi-retired, Richard currently manages a real estate project in Honolulu, Hawaii, and applies part of his spare time efforts to advocating best practices and predictive modeling, which can be expected to promote improved function of the multitude of factors comprising our society and biosphere.
He met Richard during his trip to Hawaii in 2013 and they became really good friends. Richard introduced Michal to Michael and after a dinner together, the collaboration began. Michal created all of this website’s technical features, and donated the site in its original form to WorldOpt; and now updates and maintains the site. Currently he is also working with Michael and Richard on another related project – planetviews.org, Michael’s website.
