Poverty is the main cause of hunger. In Toronto, where I live, the economic situation has caused food bank visits to increase dramatically.

Out of all the points in that doc**ent, realizing the importance of what I have was the one tolken of knowledge that spoke to me above all others.

It's tough sometimes to see what you're capable of, when it always feels like something is lacking, but this applies to all aspects of your life, not just social innovation. If someone else can fix your DVD player, then why can't you? With the… Continue

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
public servants
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.
