Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

Hey,
it's me again.
Now it's 2020, we're here at a fair and also a kind of museum devoted to water.
So it all started back in the first decade of the new millennium.
People got aware of the global risks we would have to face if we continued polluting and exploiting the earth.
One thing we were about to face was a global water insecurity.

BUT... we managed to start changing the disastrous course we were heading!

To remember us of the problems and risks we still face, we organise this fair.

We're giving new entrepreneurs the chance to exhibit their inventions and products. They might get a business deal or order from interested clients.

In the other hall we give universities, colleges, NGO's and governments the chance to explain their current studies about drinkable water, new technologies or other projects.This could be a chance of attracting new funds, co-operations with other faculties etcetera.

  • The story of bottled water:

  • "Harvesting" clouds and rainwater:

And in the last hall, we have our "museum". An exhibition of technologies, machines, projects, ideas, inventions, pictures and videos of the last century who changed the way of using water!


This is how I would organise World Water Day 2020. Get a lot of press on it, advertise it on all sorts of media, make commercials etcetera.

I like the idea! It would be nice to see some links maybe to some of the processes that worked to solve the crises... maybe links to what other Agents are proposing? Then World Water Day could also be an EVOKE party/reunion...
