In the year of 2020 I will take a stand for environment protection. In this case, I will celebrate a special day for supporting the sustainable energy. This day should show the german population how easy you could produce energy by yourself. I will try to catch lots of people to a huge public place, where they should produce energy by riding a bicycle. Today we already have bike-constructions for producing energy by riding it.

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
