For me an important question is how to promote creative and independent learning amongst children. I find the self-perpetuating uniformity of the education system completely inadequate and unacceptable for the development of an intelligent society. We need a much better process of planting the seed for self-motivation and curiosity that will reward knowledge instead of testing it.

This admonition, which is found in some rest rooms, holds for the world as well. For me, this encompasses * environment (preventing or mitigating sprawl, deforestation, extinction of species, global warming) * humanity (promoting virtuous circles for peace, education; breaking vicious circles of crime and drug abuse) * culture (fighting destruction of archeological sites through land use or looting in Iraq)

How best to create a 100% debtfree sustainable currency system that is decentralized and public? unlike current system adopted world-wide from colonnial times where money is issued as debt through fractional-reserve based centrallized private commercial banks. And compound interest (usury) is charged on the credit/loan issued by private banks to people, businesses and government. http://pods.zaadz.com/conscious_capitalism
