A crash course in changing the world.
It is Christmas 2020. i am so lucky that we as humans are still here. All the power sources that use coal are gone, the only energy that is here is that from nature itself.

When I open my present, I throw the bio degradable wrapping paper in the lake to help feed the fishes. I invented the wrapping paper. It…

This is a very important task to tackle.
Fortunatly, I know somebody that has created a fantastic way to make electricity in your own house.
What he has invented is a systme that is connected to your toilet. When you go to the toilet, it transforms yout waste into a gas that is used to create electricity and power your own house.
Fantastic is it not!!!

It is friday night 2020.
I am sitting at my home made plastic table made from recycled plastic from water bottles.
I am eating lovely home cooked veggies from my veggie patch, enjoying it with lovely, suculent beef from my herd of cows that I have that roam my farm.
I am drinking water that I have caught from my rain water catcher, a device that I invented by myself.
There are no lights in my bamboo house, only burning torches surrounding my table.
It…

In my community, there are no real food crisis problems, however further down the road, in Khayelitsh, there is a shortage of food for people to eat. The people there do not have the money to buy food, so resort to eating really unhealthy food, and some not getting any, causing severe malnutrition and starving.
To fix this problem, there are several charities that donate food to this area. People are aslo trying to establish sustainable food growing areas, which will feed the smaller…

The person that I have chosen to follow as a hero and shadow what they do and get up to is Reid Falconer. The reason that I have chosen Reid is not only because I can keep in contact with him easily and am in the same Global Issues group as him, but becuase I am very impressed at what he has done so far, since this is a new site. He has really played his part and is doing a great job, well done Reid, keep it up. Reid is also number 1 one the leader board so I feel safe following him and…

I just joined, so I am just read the first mission, and read my objective.
I found the first point really inspiring and true. INOVATION. I belive that innovation really is vital in our current times. We must make the best of what we got, and not look for other types of resources. We must use our natural and renewable recources to our planets advantage. We must use the wind, the water and the sun that the world offers us to create energy, this will sustain our planet, we don't…
