A crash course in changing the world.
My favorite secret is "What you have matters more than what you lack". When I'm thinking about what I don't have (e.g. wishing I could win the lottery), I'm wasting the time and resources I do have. Instead of buying all new clothes, I buy some used ones, or revamp old ones I already have. It makes me appreciate the new ones even more. I also save Coke bottle caps to get free stuff; I finish old craft projects before starting new ones. I reuse a section of paper towel to within an inch of…

I need to admit that in my hometown (Nuremberg, Germany) you do not see very much homeless people or people suffering hunger. Compared to other cities or countries you hardly see people on the street asking you for money or anything. This is why Germans going to other countries or continents are always very shocked by the poverty they face there.
Therefore I think there must be something done to show people how much they have and how little other people in the world have. To accieve…

On March 10, 2020, I´m coming home from my work in the evening and I´m feeling really good about what I´ve done today, because I worked with some of the most creative people I know on some problems most of us care about.
My wife and my children are already sitting on the table waiting for me to join them, so that we can have a nice meal together, talking about the day and just having a good time.
In 2020 I might be a vegetarian, because I´m getting sick of the way we treat animals…

There are all companies, organizations and agencies that are located in the city, must to follow suit to establish the food security in the region of Hanover. The contribution of the "office" organizations could contribute to multi reducing CO2 emissions, for example by promoting the use of public transport with so-called job ticket (for example Nord LB with about 6,500 employees use this concept) or by using fuel-efficient cars or even reduction of business travel, which will be replaced by…

I've just got home from teaching a swimming class how to swim with clothes and shoes on. I sit down at the dinner table with my flatmate Maxine after we have just cooked some chicken and noodle soup with some crusty bread. Its a delicious meal that doesn't cost much, great for me! We sit at the table, eat and talk about our day before we clean up and watch some TV.

I chose Richard Turere as my hero. I think he uses our most powerful weapon: creativity. I admire how he uses the stuff he have, with no other resource. I also admire how, without having books to learn, he could make out a invetion like this. Richard is a example that everything, with a little bit of imagination, is possible.

I live in Hanover, and here there is the relief organization "Hannöversche Tafel". This organization was founded in 1999 and from the district court recognized as a charity. A few months after its founding, it has been a member of the "Bundesverband Deutsche Tafel e. V.". Meanwhile, the organization has over 200 associate members. The main task of the organization is to collect food from supermarkets, bakeries and catering kitchens and then distribute it to people. Here some…

The tips for innovation in Africa from Ethan Zuckerman, Amy Smith and Paul Polak seem to be useful to understand what it means to be a social innovator. Socal innovation describes innovations, which have direct impact on social problems and conflicts. In this context my favorite secret is "Provide skills, not just finished technologies". To improve the economic and social situation in most of the african countries in the long term they need to be able to handle their problems and conflicts…

2. Don’t fight culture!
This is the most underestimated and most important thing to me.
I mean, we're not trying to change the people living in miserable circ**stances, we are trying to change the circ**stances.
I never want someone to feel humiliated by my actions even though I take them to help. There should be more than that. This help should unfold on the base of a relationship, face-to-face that suggests the people, I may be luckier than you are, but I am not better…

I belive the way to go lies in artwork money with artists painting money to give it value such as one painting for one chicken ECT... Also other leaders and big companys around the world also beleive that it is the way to go with companys from Korea and the U.S donating huge amounts for this to really take off as the new internatonial currancy.

In my opinion, a group of people achieve more than an individual. So I think the wh*** social-oriented organizations - whether for children, sick people or refugees - are the heroes of our time. Thanks to such organizations, anyone can become a hero. Whether through financial support or by, for example, registering at a donor database.
I am personally for 1.5 years registered in the bone marrow donation (…
