#solving world problems

[a-mess-of-a-crow]

Thinking about solving world problems like a stand up comedian doing crowd work

"so, I'm not saying eat the rich, or kill the rich, I'm just saying that there is an option to kill two birds with one stone, rich people and starvation, come on people let's be efficient! "

"Ok, so over here, someone just screamed in 'WHAT ABOUT LADY GAGA?!' and I'm saying 'please take that up with the hungry angry mob, that is not for me to decide. You know what? Let's all make a list for revision, I'm adding Andrew Garfield, Tom Holland, David Tennant, Robert Downey Jr. and the guy that played the first Spiderman. Gordon Freeman of course, but I specifically want him to narrate the entire situation specifically like a golf sports narrator. And Jim Carrey as our battle jester, I will not elaborate on that, however it is in my terms and conditions. Any questions?"

Introduction

In my college courses students write World-Change papers and do class presentations. Students choose a major world problem and conduct research. Then they write a paper with ideas for solving or reducing this problem. Papers are only put on this blog with written permission from students.

“Important” question: Do you guys count seltzer as water?

I’ve really upped my water intake in the last few weeks and am addicted to Plant Nanny (thanks to Julie) for tracking my H20. 

And I feel like if I count seltzer I’m cheating. Am I cheating?

Sometimes I think the population of tumblr could rule the world and be rather effective in solving crises. Then I remember everyone on this site is batshit crazy.

Easy solutions~

You know how movies that are successful in the box office bring in millions of dollars sometimes even billions? Well I was just thinking that all the governments with trillions in debt should just open a film branch, make some good movies, and then have all the profits go towards paying off the dept... It just seems like a really simple solution... So yeah... I just helped you with your issues, now can we please start focusing on helping people instead of our wallets?

Diana: I think we should just...sterilize stupid people. Or better yet, anyone who just shouldn't be a parent. Dumb and irresponsible people do NOT need children.
