Knowledge Bomb eXperiment - books not bombs!

-
Image
Inspired from a bag with the image "Books not Bombs" - a real experiment that could be tested in the real world. Pick a war, any war then drop books instead of bombs, drop knowledge instead of destruction, drop help and remove fear, drop equipment (microscopes, telescopes) to investigate the world rather than destroy it ... The amazing thing about this thought, this idea is that it can be tried now, today, at this very moment and the results can be checked. Military still get to fly sorties and dodge missiles, but the bombs hold knowledge of this world to help them improve their lives - from the greatest writers of our time. I would rather see depleted books lying around rather than depleted uranium! Contents of a Knowledge Bomb?

A Lasting Grand Design

We have only had our allotment since end of last year (Nov/2014) and have learnt that to get the most from the allotment requires a lot of time, energy and effort - sometimes to get minimal returns.  But gardening in the evening watching the sunset, picking the weeds knowing you will see them again, chewing on a broadbean picked freshly and mostly seeing the fruit and vegetables grow is possibly the most rewarding thing that has been given to all of us.   This is a suggestion for a Lasting Grand Design Project for Kevin McCloud of Grand Designs fame, the legacy of a great programme... ... let’s turn prisons into gardens! 46% of adults are reconvicted £36,808  Annual cost of a prison place 1994 Overcrowded in every year since 84,305 Prison population When it can be said by any country in the world, my poor are happy, neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them, my jails are empty of prisoners , my streets of beggars, the aged are not

Eight Worthy Goals

“Eight Worthy Goals” " Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring fable. If we crave some cosmic purpose, then let us find ourselves a worthy goal. " - Carl Sagan 1. Children are taught to grow their own food, build a working house and know basic first aid by age six. 2. All prisons are at ZERO cost to the public and the victims - self sustaining in two year’s time. 3. We recycle 99.9% of all items and retain 50% of energy used within one year's time - bottle banks are a thing of the past, we just reuse them. 4. We help build a major connecting road and at least two schools in any developing country that has asked for our help and expertise. 5. Renewable energy at 110% in five year’s time - we export energy. 6. Space station on the moon in ten year’s time - we are thinking beyond the planet, when we look up and see the moon we see humans within the stars. 7. Conscription against Nature - the youth or unemployed will help dev
