I have my program and it can be done anywhere in the world and just as much as you can do.
“Think global and act local”. What that means in my eyes is do something at least once a week for your fellow humans. If today you see someone who is thirsty and needs food. Get them a bottle or two of water from your auto. You probably paid around $2.98 for 24 bottles. And grab a granola bar you have with you and simply give them that little help they need and cost you.55 cents.
If people see that simple act of humanity you just provided perhaps they will help someone else and the great feeling you receive from a simple act of kindness will become such a positive in your life you will want to continue doing it.
That’s the simple way to think about how you can effect change right in your neighborhood with little to no expense or effort.
I have raised over 6,000 pounds of food for Harvesters international by simply asking communities that are having events to allow us to put out our barrels for people to drop off a flat of green beans or whatever and we will manage it all. The organization who collects the goods will come every day during that period of time and do the work.
That was a bit harder the first time but after we all understood the process it’s just a matter of some phone calls and whatever you choose to do to help.
I hope this helps you and I’m always available to share with you best practices.

Stop destroying the world:
-stop using fossil fuels
-stop producing garbage
-stop destroying nature
- stop creating war to prduce money
- stop wasting reasources
Be better people:
- treat other how you want to be treated
- create things for yourself rather than take it from others
- help people who need help
- stop spreading hate
- stop being offended by all these random things, then being offended that theyre offensive 🙄
- LET GO OF THINGS
-MOVE ON WITH OUR LIVES
- have a common goal that produces something positive for more than just you
- put effot into yourself
- quite being so judgemental (everyones got problems and none of them are your business)
WE COULD ALL JUST TRY HARDER IN GENERAL!

The world is in such a shamble, there is no one way that could make it better. It would take a lot of changes.
One of those changes could be to question the things that really bring segregation and division in people, families, cultures, countries etc . Question their beliefs in something that puts them in such inflammatory stances that they can hate and even inflict violence over other humans for their beliefs.

I agree with preserving the environment and abolishing plastics and other hazards @GovanDUNNY

Just like how cigarette packets have health warnings on them, all newspapers and other 'independent' media outlets to carry prominent information to show which billionnaire owns them, what their political views are, where they live, and where they pay (or avoid paying) their taxes.

@ABCDEF7 [quote]Why you can coerce a kid to study mathematics? [/quote]
What's the part of "good luck operating a country without economists, engineers, architects, doctors, physicists, chemists" that you didn't understand? Comparing meditation (pseudoscience) with mathematics (demonstrably critical for society the way you know it) is rather foolish.
[quote]"taxpayers money should only go in what interests me". me?[/quote]
You know what a strawman argument is? Because that's exactly what you're throwing at me right now. Last time in your very last reply: [i]Why you can coerce a kid to study mathematics? [/i]
[quote]You didn't understood the example[/quote]
The example that initiated the strawman I'm calling out? There isn't much to understand.
[quote]Your IQ level, makes me think I should not be wasting time with kids.[/quote]
Generally, those who boast about IQ, give IQ an enormous importance or ridicule other people IQ are individuals who have the brainpower of the average broomstick. This conversation is only reinforcing my opinion on this.

@Elessar I said, [quote]There is no need to coerce anything.[/quote]. It meant we were not going to coerce meditation, but you didn't got it. Or deliberately ignored it.
By posting an example it meant, like you have an opinion, someone else can have a different opinion, but neither you nor me is the only authority that should decide, it is done with voting. Hinting again by saying "me?" was to hint you again that you or me are not the authority, no law should be made just by you or me feels something. But you didn't got it. Mentioning about mathematics was part of the example, and it was to make you further clear that be it mathematics or meditation, it should not be coerced. But instead of taking it as an example you kept on comparing mathematics with meditation, not comprehending/ ignoring even after I told you it's an example and you should not take it literary. Spirituality is not like religion that can be coerced because it tells person to recognize his/her true self, it's not about imposing. That I also made clear by saying, "There is no need to coerce anything". But you didn't got even then. Then I don't have option to doubt your intelligence, Otherwise you can be deliberately ignoring thing to continue the argument, and kept on repeating yourself. In either case I don't think there is any point of discussion with you.

@ABCDEF7 Maybe you don't remember how school works; the moment you introduce something as a subject, attendants are obligated to go through it. But that's not the main point, the moment you introduce anything as a subject, someone has to pay for its teaching, and taxes aren't optional either. Hence, "coercion".

Be nicer to each other . Learn to mind our own business . Just because you have a boring life doesnt give you the right to interfere in others lives . Change the political system so everyone no matter your class in life can be a politician if they so wish . Make life fairer so everyone can earn a living wage and stop fat cats awarding themselves disgusting wage rises .

Smile and seek to make someone happy. Some will appreciate your efforts, others might just glare and stare at you even making you feel a bit uncomfortable. (This happened to me earlier this evening)
Nevertheless, I will continue to smile because I believe that overall it really does make a difference.

I believe the biggest way is to eradicate poverty. Too many children growing up in very difficult conditions. The second thing is to replace hate with love. We need to care more for each other and respect differences more.

leave the planet . and move elsewhere. and let it heal..
@TJNewton Hawking said humans will need to colonize another planet within 100 years or face extinction. "With climate change, overdue asteroid strikes, epidemics and population growth, our own planet is increasingly precarious. ..
