The storyline of season two would be facing terrorist attacks and all the problems it brings. Reflecting on 9/11, the shortage of food, water, shelter and the dealing of death were major concerns that the community had to face. The comic stripo would should the setting while the dialogue would express the dire need of a safety blanket for the people, the government and the united states.

The evoke network is a simulated "game" but at the same time it is far from it. The evoke game allows you to virtually adress the global problems that we face today. It lets us explosre, learn and act upon our thoughts and ideas. Also, it requires us to imagine and think about the future of our world. This game is a manifestation of ideas that will be aor are required in real life.

for the Evoke project, i think in season two, it will help if there would be a chat option. This would allow for direct collaboration in the moment, as ideas are evolving in your head. People might find connections with each other and create even a bigger impact than previously thoguth.

What i will ask the group of people to do to fight the flu pandemic is to distribute medicine and vaccines to the more remote places of the world. With todays technology we have the resources to wuicjly distribute materials, we just need the manpower to do so.

When i will be 100 years old, the secret that i will pass on is how to grow a garden. I feel that this skill will get lost as the years progress and that will cause society to diminish. people need to learn how to grow gardens to know how to provde themselves with food and how to get food without harming the environment.

My new city will have the ultimate survival plan. Getting information out to the poeple will be quicker and more effecient than ever. In case disaster does strike, there will be plenty of ways for survival. First being all the hosues will be supplied with extra food, water, and blankets in a worst case scenario. Also, there will be multiple ways to get out of the city; trains, cars, airplanes, etc will be made more efficient to not cause a traffic jam.

This week i investigated our towns resileince plans against times of crisis. What i found and actually experienced on a small scale were media warnings. I feel that our community does an exceptional job at getting the word out; all TV networks blared warnings for a hurricane. The radiostations focused on the weather and provided ways to stay safe. Our community does a very good job at providing the initial response that people look for in times of confusion.

A crisis that my community might face in the future would be natural disasters like floods, hurricanes or tornadoes. The information that we would need to track is what areas are going to be affected and the impact that they would make. Currently, we are able to do this and spread this info to listeners of radio or people watching TV. Other tehcnology, however, would be a lot more helpful to quickly get the word out to all the other people so they could get to safety faster.

The way that women in 2020 will be empowered is by providing all women across the globe an equal opportunity to play and coach sports. Currently, the project that teaches women in yuganda how to coach soccer is only a small step towards a big transformation. In 2020, this practice will not be frowned down upon and the women wil have an equal treatment and opportunities in the sports world.

The way that I empowered women in my community is by talking to little girls about their strength in our community. In a group called "Peer Leaders," we go to younger kids and talk to them about various topics. School, friends, responsibility, the transition to the next grade are topics we cover very often but female rights and power are something we only started to talk about recently. We gave the girls examples of powerful women in our community and the changes they have made. We emphasize…

The way that women are being empowered is by giving them more rights and freedoms all around the world. Along with them comes the right to feel safe and be protected under the law. In libya, women are being protected and more thouroughly is the issue of rape and sexual violence examined.

A new bank opened, with a new system of saving. People can invest a very minimal amount of money and have it grow quicklier than a regular savings account.
This will help the lower class of people who dont have the money to start a big investment. This will allow them to slowly increase their funds to get out of the…

The new system of currency that I used went back to the roots of society. People used to trade food and supplies and we slowly evolved to the idea of money. Last week, I exchanged, although simple, helping my sister with her homework for her service of doing the laundry that week. It may seem like a simple exhchange between kids, but it shows how sosciety used to function.

The idea that will change the future of money, is micro-savings. So many people live everyday on so little money and they have a hard time in saving for the future. Micro-savings allow people to save a very minimal amount of money, but have a big outcome. The money would compile into a big fund that will later be redistributed after growing a percent increase.

The event would be waterless. This would be a new idea, but it would also be fun. Many may ask well how will be quench our thirst, wash our hands, etc? The answer lies in ourselves; what are we willing to sacrafice to save our global water supply for one day? No direct water will be used; we will use hand sanatizer, and recycled water to make our event happen. There will be educational games, music and fun. As well as being enjoyable, this even will focus on teaching our community the…

The way that I joined forces with an innovator is that we continued the Water4Water effort in our high school. The project was very successful, people bought water, and we matched the amount and sent our earnings to those less fortunate, in need of clean water. We know that our efforts made an impact and we took the first step of helping in our community. As time goes by, this crisis will be made more popular, and people will make an even bigger effort to help

The most interesting water supply idea that i found and that Farmington High School participates in is Water4Water. This project focuses on the fortunate people to buy water, which they do anyhow, and then for every bottle of water bought, an area in the world without clean water recieves it. Although this idea is not breakthrough, it is an easy way for everyone to have an impact in the world and help supply clean water to our global community.

In the year 2020, a holiday that we would celebrate would be independence day,on July 4th. This is an important American holiday that uses a lot of energy, but it could be the beginning of something new; sustainable energy. We could celebrate this not only as independence from britain, but also from using limited energy resources. we could power our celebrations with sun energy, wind energy, and water energy and make the wh*** day about using unlimited, natural energy sources. This could be the…
