whats evoke about
The Evoke network has different missions and each mission has to be solve. Every week there is a new problem and we have to find ways to solve them. Some might be harder than others but at the end most were solve. There are still a lot more that need to be solve and that's probably going to come in season 2. Evoke also tries to work secretly not everyone knows who are involve or anything like that.

Episode 1 season 2
The first episode of EVOKE Season 2 can be about terrorism. Many countries specially the U.S. have been trough terrorism attempts and some have succeed. For example the 9/11 incident and many more. If we can change the way people think then things could actually be good. People wouldn't be trying to cause damage to other people and their homes. Also we can stop the suicides people do for example when they attach bombs to their bodies, or crash planes. In my opinion this is a really good problem… Continue

Better Evoke
Evoke can work on the topics. Maybe make them more intense and more interesting. Also the learn and act could be more fun that way people would actually want to do them. Let us decide what we want to do other then making us research and study about things. I mean is good to research but not all the time.

my team
The flu has reach my neighborhood and there is something I have to do about it. My first choice will be a good phycologist that can help me out with the people. Also would need someone that is powerful and can influence a large crowd or people. Another person would be there to gain the peoples' trust that way it'll be easier for them to listen to us. I would also need someone there that I can trust no matter what.

trust
I believe trust is one of the most important keys. If people trust each other it is easier for them to deal with fear. In a time like that if there is someone that can be trusted things seem better. Trust is what allows people to live in peace.

100 years
After fighting for so long and working hard to make my community a better place I have a lot of things to tell the young children of today. If you like to live in a place where everything stinks and garbage is all over the place then don't do anything. But if you like a nice and pure place do your part to keep your community clean. Animals are one of the most beautiful things that we have there for we need to cherish it. There is no way to get them back once they're gone. We have to take care… Continue

significant
This is significant because its shape is an elephants teeth. The teeth are one of the main reasons why elephants are being killed. People seem to play a lot of money fro an elephants tooth without realizing that this animals are vanishing away. Which means that something needs to be done to save this precious animals.

endanger
Many regions and places have animals that are in danger on extinction. Many groups are being created to save this animals, for example in Africa. Elephants have been the set of hunting for many years therefor they are in danger. A group has become together to stop people from killing this animals, and so far they are succeeding. We have to keep in mind that not only Elephants is many animals and we have to save them because once there gone we won't be able to bring them back.

my new flushing
This is what Flushing would look like in 10 years after all the work we did.There would be more trees plant which means more oxygen. There would also be more ponds where ducks and other animals can live in. The green parts are pure grasslands where people can go and enjoy nature, others can buy the grassland and use it for their own gardening/planting. The blue crosses represent more aquarium animals, like fishes and seals.…

change
My neighbors have started to recycle. If we are able to get everyone to recycle we can be making a big difference. Maybe we can teach people about the importance of recycling and place posters up for people to see. Mostly all the people I know recycle if we increase at this rate we can make the planet a better place for all of us.

problem
A problem I might face later on in my community is the lack of water. Many places are suffering from lack of water. We are fortunate to have it but if we don't take care of it we might be loosing it soon. In some countries people have certain hours in which they are able to use the water. I believe that if we try doing this in we might be able to save a lot of water all around the world. We have to think of not only us but also for our descents in our future.

more power
Jackey- In my story, I'm a girl who lives in Darfur and I'm was skinny
because my country faces many civil wars and we don't have much to eat.
I also face problems with finding a shelter because my old homes were
destroyed by the armies that would pass through my town. My dad and my
brothers also went to join the war. I stayed behind with my aunt and
mom, but they were barely in good shape. I try to help my aunt and mom
out because they try to find food for us… Continue

saving money
The use of credit cards is whats making people sink in bankrupt. In my opinion if we use less credit cards the money crisis will get better. Also because people go out their way to use credit cards and then they don't have enough money to pay so their credit goes down. With out a good credit people aren't able to buy homes,cars,or get loans.

empowering girls
A way we can start helping girl get an education is build more schools. Some countries have limited access to education there for only guys receive the education. We also have the change the point of view towards women, many people still believe that men are better than women there for they give men preference. If we are able to reach the point where women will be equal as men then everyone will be able to gain an education.

women rights
I'm learning more about sexual
violence right now,and in particular what I'm wondering about is "How
can we empower women". I was researching this question online, and this
news item caught my attention because it talks about sexual violence
towards women and how people are trying to change that. Many place
don't do anything to protect women because they find them inferior to
men.

saving money
The first time I made a transition I was with my mom. She was sending money to other family members in a different state. She used credit card and when we got the bill I realize that interest has a bad part to it. The more interest the more people have to pay.

new bank
The new bank at my neighborhood seems to be making BIG deals. Its name is "Bank for the People" and it just recently open. So far from what people have told me and from my researches this bank has big plans. Not only is this bank helping people raise their economy but they donate money to places in Africa,Middle East, and South America. This bank seems to be making a lot of progress and it already has many clients. This bank not only lends people money but it has a better credit card system. If… Continue

water
In 2020 to show people the importance of water I would have all the water pipes close. This way people would see how hard it is to leave with out water and if we don't act fast that's going to be our new future. I think people don't realize the importance of water because they have it but if we show them before the water is gone and there is nothing to be done people would act and work together to make a difference.

groups
I can help or would help would be joining the GWC group which
helps people in Kenya. This groups are some of the few that help raise money for people in Africa but specially in Kenya. It also works with the water problems in Kenya. It seems like a good thing
to do because after Kenya, we can go other places around the world just
like the people of evoke.

In water.org projects there is a plan to help the water crisis in Ghana. I think their project can be successful if everything is done the right way. The water crisis is a problems that is affecting everyone all around the world, and its going to take a lot of time to fix it. I support the project in Ghana and believe it can have a very good outcome.

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.
