Celebratory Tactics
For most of us the food shortages are overseas, however the help that we offer them often comes from home. That said, the more likely we are to assist local food drives; who often donate to overseas efforts, the more aid will reach the people who need it most. With that idea in mind, there needs to be more done to celebrate food drives as a rewarding event rather than a task that needs to be done. It doesn't even need to be during a time of crisis when… Continue

Unconventional Heroics
Evoke tells our own stories so that we might too inspire.

Strangers in a Strange Land and Problems at Home
'talk to the people who have the problem – and LISTEN to what they have to say' (Paul Polak)
I'm probably not the first to admit it, nor am I certainly going to be the last; but I know so little about the world's cultures and the people who live and work within them. Sometimes I even feel I know more about dealing with 'people' on the… Continue

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

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.
