Capitalism. Things like 100k paintings of a chicken scratch. Using precious metals, like gold, to make cell phone cases and decorating bathrooms. Billionaire/millionaire families owning private islands and acres of fertile land not used to grow food. It all needs to be done away with.
I need some time to think on two more. The way schooling is handled is probably one of them.

Get It How You Get It
If we make it past the next150 years there will be a utopia
Not necessarily, unless we take action to change the road we're on...
When it comes to how resources are distributed and goods are produced, the majority of those issues can be solved by getting rid of capitalism through the working class overthrowing it and establishing socialism. So, that's one.
I think the climate crisis is also caused, in large part, by capitalism and the chaos of its production and undemocratic decision-making. Hypothetically, maybe you could have a majority of people opt to throw their planet under the bus so they can live like kings under a "democratic" economic system, but I don't see that as very likely (puts them in danger, compromises their kid's future, etc.)... nonetheless, even assuming we reach socialism, an ecological ethos must take root again in human consciousness and in the structures of human societies.
I could say something like superstition, a lack of self-belief, etc., but I also think these things are fostered, wielded, and/or exacerbated by capitalism and capital, in the interests of the ruling class.
Since capital is all-pervading, getting rid of capitalism and establishing socialism would get us much further along the road to solving so much of what ails us today. :mannymarx:

Global warming/ Pollution - The solution is obvious. It's just that no one cares enough for anything to get done about it.
Capitalism - People realizing that we don't have to be in a rat race anymore if we collectively decide so
Overpopulation - Temporary vasectomy shots for men

Systematic oppression exists on many levels. The class struggle is far more pervasive and detrimental. The only means by which white supremacy can be exercised today is through capital. Not to mention you can not remove white supremacy by improving the justice system because there will still be no minorities who control the means of production.
white supremacy is exercised in all areas of human activity.
economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex and war.

And capital controls everything you just listed except sex. I don't really know how white supremacy is exercised in sex eitherwhite supremacy is exercised in all areas of human activity.
economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex and war.
white supremacy is exercised in sex when white people have sex with non-whites which is akin to a prisoner having sex with a prison guard. white people have reshaped entire nations by raping and impregnating non-white women and having that offspring grow up to become leaders with allegiance to their white fathers.
