Changing the World: December 8 – Helping the Homeless
Today’s suggestion is to assist the homeless by eating out. Sounds strange – but it can be done. Follow the link below for more information – it is a good cause:

Changing the World: November 17 – Cooperation is the Key
Today’s suggestion for changing the world was to work together with people to achieve goals and to make the world a better place. The example given in the book ‘365 Ways to Change the World,’ by Michael Norton, was setting up a coop to get cheaper vegetables for the group from the market. There was also an example about a fellow who started to do this himself and who was able to set up cheap green grocer stores for the not so well off and homeless kitchens (a great story of helping the needy).
I won’t be following this one up, but I’m sure the coop idea is good for many people who want to do some good.

Changing the World: November 13 – Food not Bombs
Today’s suggestion for changing the world is to form a ‘Food not Bombs’ group. The theory behind such a group is to gather food from various sources (fresh vegetables running out of shelf life, etc) and to seek to feed the local hungry people – such as the homeless, poor, etc.
These groups also protest against war.
This suggestion is also not for me – but not because I don’t like the idea. It is a great idea and one others may like to pursue. Visit the web site below for more information:
