Basically anything that is genuinely designed to better the lives of other people either directly or indirectly, which of course includes any environmental causes as well.



Oh God.

Please tell me you are not some tree hugging hippie. (Nothing wrong with that, but i'll elaborate more on this.)

Fact is, civilization as we know is on the path to total destruction.

All this good people are trying to do for the environment won't matter once the nukes start flying.



I feel like that's the reason he chose the words he did... If peoples lives were better, if we would work to better others lives and the environment TRULY we wouldn't be shooting nukes at each other and engaging in pointless wars.

It is pathetic that we don't have a base on the moon yet. We have had the capability for quite a long time.



I know right.

But some people are starving and others are dying from horrible diseases.. They get all the money cause apparently "its more important" :bored:



But they don't get all the money. Or they wouldn't be dying. The majority of the world's wealth is owned by a very small group. We have the capability to effectively end starvation, homelessness, most diseases, AND go to the moon.

Global warming is real, it's not something you have to "believe" in. Read the studies on it.



read what studies, the ones claiming that mankind is responsible, it;s a
natural cycle, warming and cooling that the earth has gone through for more
than 400 million years. big deal, we're coming out of an ice age, 'global
warming' is why the ice age ended

How exactly would you go about redistributing that wealth though? That incentive for money is the reason we have the capability of ending diseases and the technology to land on the moon in the first place.

Hoarding all of the money doesn't help either. It can be used properly to fix problems but most of the people that have it aren't interested in fixing other people's problems.

Use it to develop undeveloped places. "Develop" as in build sustainable and growth-provoking things, create new economies.

Lol at global warming.

There has been a million studies, 500000 of them say its the humans, the other 500000 says its the natural climate cycle of the planet.

So the way I see it, if half of what people say is true, 25% is caused by human, 25% by the natural cycle and 50% of shit we dont know about

I won't support something that may or may not be real.

It even doesn't matter if global warming is actually caused by humans, that's just something to argue about to distract from the real issue. You don't need to accept that to know that we should minimize the stress we put on our environment. We treat our bodies well, we should treat the celestial body we inhabit well.
