How many times have we heard the phrase, “Kids these days?” How many of us stop to ponder what that truly means? The destiny of the world rests in the hands of “kids these days” so where exactly are “kids” going to take us? Is there something to fear in the way “kids these days” will run our planet in the future days to come? The most important factor to the growth and character of children is their upbringing and family environment.
Insanely and sadly, families never get the essential...

The increasing energy problem our world faces today continues to gain attention as the cost of using fossil fuels rise. Figuring out ways to stay sustainable is crucial to keep our society functioning at an economical level and save our planet from the inefficiencies and harm fossil fuels create.
My idea does not offer any new scientific research, major new development, or breakthrough discovery, it simply looks at how we operate on a daily level and aims to make that process more e...

The community hedge fund employs communally approved investment strategies that are low-risk and high-growth. The minimum investment in the hedge fund is only $100. The fund will strive to be consistently better than market performance (ie. >7% annually). Only a small percentage of profits will be retained to cover expenses and no bonuses will be paid out to money managers.

My idea is to bring mental awareness to the Lansing Community through a free class at Froster Community Center once a month. When I was younger I hung out at the Lansing Foster Community Center with my brother’s and sister’s. The Foster Community Center offers a place for the Lansing Community to go to for many different types of classes. I would like to add a Mental Awareness class that could be an informal place for the Lansing Community to come and learn more about the importance of men...

The life of a small business relies heavily on technology to thrive. In a world where inflation has skyrocketed and businesses are closing up shop left and right, I believe that small to medium businesses should have a fair chance to succeed.
Everyday Programming is a system that aids in the productivity of small to medium businesses by supplying them with customized programs that suit their needs exactly. It is low cost because there would be...

This idea was a finalist for Joe's What's Your Big Idea. This idea could be used to potentially find missing people and as a planet scanner. It would use signals that are all around us, as a personal tracker. It could be used to find rare animals, lost objects, and potentially as a life saver. Please choose this idea if like myself, you hate seeing missing person's poster's and know that there is potentially someone out there that could have found this person or saved their life.

I am a programming specialist by day, and a local freelance engineer by night.

My idea is for a local small business.
It would start out with offering computer and smart phone repair services. Then soon moving into web and mobile software de...

I would like to propose a gradual transition from landscaping our cities and neighborhoods from an eye pleasing point of view to a sustainable point of view. Instead of planting exotic species of trees for pleasure, plant an apple tree which flowers beautifully AND gives back with fruit for humans and animals and mulch for any other plants growing below the canopy. Other plants can benefit from the shade of an apple tree and also give back to this delicate ecological circle; it...
