I think EVOKE should tackle the issue of exploitation of poor workers by corporations. We have all heard about people in Asian countries being exploited, but in one of my cla**** we learned about the poor workers in Jamaica who were being exploited as well. I am sure there are many workers in other countries being exploited that are not known. I think we should learn more about this issue and pressure corporations to operate under fair and just rules. New EVOKE communities should be built in…

Crisis Communication IMAGINE 9
If it were the year 2011 and the flu pandemic hit my part of the country and I could call on a group of non-medical people to help "save the day," I would call on local citizens (neighbors, friends, families, etc). Citizens would need to help and support each other. Citizen volunteers would help pass out whatever resources were needed to make it through the pandemic.

IMAGINE 8
When I turn 100 years old in the year 2087, I hope that I can pass on the knowledge of conserving nature, especially trees. Trees are important to all living things because they produce oxyen. Unfortunately, trees are cut down much quicker than they are replanted in order to make room for technology and to use for other services, such as building materials and paper products. So far, my husband and I have planted one live oak tree in our front yard, which I hope survives, especially because… Continue

Fourth of July on the Lake

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More
Stinging Nettle
In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
