It troubles me greatly to think that as you I discuss how over a billion people are hungry and have need for clean drinkable water, there will likely be another  child fall because of these basic nutrition problems.

Our modern world support billions of people and capacity grows by the day. And there are two facts staring us in the face:

1. The world is covers mostly in water so we aren’t running out
2. Our output in total calories of nutrition far exceeds the needs of 7 billion people.

Sometimes, it seems the best thing to do is to prosper, make a donation and hope you picked one that won’t squander most of the money. Frankly, when asked where someone should send a check to support clean drinking water, I’m never sure what to say.

This isn’t a funding problem.

Friday night, I’ve invited James Talmage Stevens, the best selling author in the preparedness industry on my Profitable Social Media radio show to talk about his education campaign to help families be prepared for any situation. His book Making the Best of Basics, has sold 770,000 copies and is now out in a new edition.

However, I know we’ll spend a lot of time on a passion we share, getting clean drinkable water for the billion plus people suffering right now. Listen to my show here

Looking For Better Explanations.. Better Ideas About Food

I spend an hour each evening reading and searching for new ideas like the one shown here. The following, Dan Barber: How I fell in love with a fish was one I just about passed on. I never eat fish! But OH, how glad I am that I watch this.

These Ideas Will Help You In Your Marketing

When I’m stuck on a problem, looking for a creative solution for my clients or wondering how I’ll work out a situation that seems insurmountable, I often think back to folks like Dan Barber.

If you’re like me, you’ll have a notepad out and several action items before you finish watching this short video.

I hope you will share your ideas with us.

I do hope you don’t think I’m a wacko for the headline today. (there are so many other reasons that you might use that label though).

It’s just time I share a few thoughts on the futility of paying them much heed.

Here’s a list of a few of the misconceptions we get listening to economists

1. The recession is bad, worse, staring, over (all their numbers lag)
2. There is a record number of unemployed (many more employed that a few decades back)
3. what the President says will affect the economy (only if you are a day trader)

Wacko enough for you? I’m just getting started.

OK.. to be fair, I don’t have enough data on any of the above to claim that I know any better than and economist In my defense, I don’t make a living telling you I do.

Here’s a wonderful film about Marilyn Waring, a woman who chose not to assume that the economist knew what they were talking about. Not some wacko.. a very nice lady.

One thing I’ve learned from social media is that a message can spread quickly when it has benefit to those that pass it on. I do hope you can see that clean drinking water for every person on Earth is not just doable, but a message worth spreading.

Too much of the world lacks access to clean drinking water. Engineer Michael Pritchard did something about it — inventing the portable Lifesaver filter, which can make the most revolting water drinkable in seconds.
