It's Not About "Engagement": Using Social Media To Make Ideas Happen

I was going through this article on 99% and found it to be pretty accurate when it talks about how social media can be used to make ideas happen. I would say this is an article that shows how to go beyond the I LIke button on Facebook

The botany of desire

This is a documentary that i found to be very very inspiring, it may be a little off track in terms of food consumption but it may help understand plants we eat and depend on, and how can we diversify them and manipulate them.

Sanitation In context and a great starting point

Sanitation when starting from scratch must be extremely inclusive and the design solution must follow and respect the already in place traditions and behaviours.

What can innovation experts do to put our society in the right direction? Friend, you must not completely understand the reasoning and philosophy behind The Venus Project. Innovation experts can look into resource based economics (the very phrase was originated by Jacque Fresco and is NOT subject to interpretation).

Wars come from: devision of resources, differences in artificial boundaries (i.e. language, culture, religion) and so forth.

How can a little country like Haiti go about acquiring more resources for it's deprived civilization? They can try to print out cash like we do, but that won't work.. so they can try to go to war to go and steal what they need to survive, but they have no army.. so that won't work. Society is fucked up on all kinds of levels. These artificial boundaries are increasingly disturbing.

The question, like you said, was to be addressed by my concept.. and it was. Perhaps you just didn't look into it fully. The answers your questions are out there, just look for them.
