Innovate on existing platforms (We’ve got bicycles and mobile phones in
Africa, plus lots of metal to weld. Innovate using that stuff, rather
than bringing in completely new tech.)
The best way to innovate is to recycle unused items. This way you will not only be helping yourself by bringing income to the place but also helping clear the area of trash.

Imagine 7 Urban Resilance April 15 2020 The dark side- Had to add again I deleted before!

Well the idiots went and did it. NO ONE would come together. No one saw

that we all matter and that each life touches the other. One argument

escalated to another. People could not overcome their egos and see that

there is a beautiful world out there. That an ocean of people could come

together in one massive wave and put aside differences. They flat out

forgot the word Love. So we don't really know how or who, some say they

heard a person with his… Continue

Learn 7 what would I use to spread info in case of a crisis

If there was a tornado or other crisis in the town i am living I would utilize text messageing, actual phone calls, facebook, twitter and actually going door to door to alert and help people. the ushahadi project is excellent but we need to have one for each town in the US! I would also use the TV and any local chatrooms to check up on people and what they have heard. I would be calling everyone I know.
short but sweet.
grace and peace sunnydupree

Learn 7 Ushahidi Project and what it is and Disasters most likely to happen in my area.

They can use video, pictures or text message to report the problems that are occuring in realtime.

Episode 9 code phrase "The crowd does not lie"

I think that phrase "the crowd does not lie" can be utilized in the technologies that we have on hand. If one were to use their twitter account, facebook or other networking sites to report immediate problems the urgency would be evident to others as people report personally on what is happening. You can have one person saying something and it might be wrong but if a mass of people in separate areas are saying the same thing then you can pretty well bet it is true.

LEARN-1: Incentives and economic sustainability is key to sustainable social innovations

Economic Sustainability is key to a continous social innovations.

Without it, being dependant on fundings, continous presence of an NGO/INGO to making a difference to a society would be chronic at the level of "investment dilemma" -- the more you are investing your time and funds in that particular community, for particular issue, the more 'addicted' society is to the funds, and the more failure it becomes.…

Secret Stuff~

two of my favortie secrets of evoking is listening and observing the situation. There are alot of people who say they know what a person is going through but, really they don't! Find someone who really has gone through the hardships of life and listen to what they have to say. or better yet think about it, put yourself in their shoes and search yourself on what you would do if you were going through what they were going through?

chapter 6

the biggest crisis i could see, occurring locally, here in Antelope, California would be electrical and gas shortages. the best way to deal with that would be to become energy independent. but for alternative energies to be possible we first need to find affordable ways to distribute these technologies to each resident. for these technologies to become affordable we should not be exporting industry and jobs as well as resources to other countries to make a "quick buck for the short run" but… Continue

Pay it Forward (Call to Action)

Here is my answer to Quest 006: So what kind of world-changing action do YOU want to design? Your quest this week: Create three original calls to action: for an individual, for a crowd, and for a massive community.

If you had the power to convince today one person to do one thing, who would it be, and what would you call on him or her to do?
