Comparing me with a social innovator





I in my opinion have an imagination that can go on forever. A social innovator needs to think someone like me or even myself. There is really no limit to their thinking or imagination. If you just relax and think really hard then there is no limit to imagination. The ground to heaven isn't the limit.…

Air conditioner

We use the air conditioner a lot during the summer season and we should stop using all
that electricity. I have no idea how that can be possible but if we can have something like the heater for the winter and the air conditioner for the summer to replaced electricity then that will be cool. These can be a major use of electricity but there is a lot more out there. We over use technology.

Food security

Many people have gardens. I know that my grandmother herself owns her own garden and plants some vegetables there. Some people should do that. Gardening is not easy but it is a good way to use gardening as a food source.

Earthquake

A

natural disaster we could face in 2020 could be a earthquake. This

natural disaster people will lose almost everything. In this situation, the first thing to do is

bring all the survivors to shelters and provide food for them. Hopefully we would gain support from other countries for money and

aid. People die and are seriously injured and…

Water that are dirty

There is a carry 5 gallons of water for 5 kilometers. Many people like

women and children in different countries that are suffering of poverty.

Carrying 5 gallons of water for 5 kilomters is something not easy to do

because it is heavy and you have to walk non stop. Another thing

walking all that kilometers is hard and running out of water would be

even more scary. Every day, 5,000 children die from preventable

water-related illnesses. Even with them carrying their… Continue

Benefits for women

If I made a lot of money from a good job I'd help women. I'd need a good job for a living for myself and enough to donate money to help women get better education. With the money I'd give for the women I'd donate money for the school so the school can have good educated teachers and a big school. Schools do need a lot of money they'd need materials such as books and desks. Good school lunches and air conditioners would be nice for women that would attend the school I'd support.

electricity

Electricity can be used for many things. Electricity is mainly used for some uses for benefits and some for not. Electricity can be used to make places visible. Electricity can be used ways like computers to
play games or for research. Electricity is a limited resource. Electricity can
be used in many beneficial ways but others just for fun. Electricity should be
more for beneficial of use and not in a bad way.

social

Muhammad Yunus, recipient of the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize, is a more

recent example. He began offering microloans to impoverished people in

Bangladesh in 1976, thereby empowering them to become economically

self-sufficient and proving the microcredit model that has now been

replicated around the world. While social entrepreneurship isn’t a new

concept, it has gained renewed currency in a world characterized by a

growing divide between the haves and the have-nots.… Continue

Women in 2020

You never know what may happen in the year of 2020. There are a lot of limited resources in the world and in 10 years many resources can be gone. The cost of the limited resources would obviously be higher. In 2020 it will be a lot harder to support women in 2020. A lot of supplies I can see in the future of 2020 there will not so much good education for women.

Try living for a week on $2 a day.

I'm learning more about innovation right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is Try living for a week on $2 a day. I was researching this question online, and this caught my attention because of how you can make only $2 a day when you can make at least $7 an hr here.





The quote i chose here is basically saying people make $2 daily for a living.





I think this is strong because it makes me wonder how people can actually save up… Continue

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. 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

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…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. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. 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

public servants

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.
