Welcome to this board -- what it's all about

Hi,

This board is all about practical ideas that can be put into action to make a difference. A lot in my work here in Brazil has to do with awareness and introducing new ideas into the cultural mindset to provoke change. This, in general, forces me to come up with ideas that instantly call people's attention and gives me massive rapport.

For instance, the current idea I have in my pipeline is to call attention to the environmental issue. To do this, I want to unite 4.000 people, mainly teenagers, and give a human hug to a pond/lagoon that we have here in town. You can see it here (I know, the picture is tiny…).

Instantly, this calls attention. You can call the media to film the event, give interviews, involve activists, etc. It's a logistical challenge, but it's worth it.

That's what this board is about. Practical ideas. Good ideas. Silly ideas. Ridiculous ideas. Absurdo ideas. Impossible ideas. All to provoke shifts in consciousness.

Remember, remember…

Historical Shifts in Consciousness

One thing I like to look at is what are the events in the past that created shifts in consciousness.

The boston tea party in american history is one thing that was clearly pivotal.

The declaration of independence was a potent document.

Anyone else have ideas they reference? I haven't thought about it a lot on this particular theme, but would be curious what actions others' reference from history.

cheers.
