Learn: Transportation is an issue in itself. It has become a crowded and damaging mess. There are too many cars, too few alternatives, and there's a vast rise in gas prices and smog levels. We have to find ways to be cleaner and less crowded if people want to be able to make a difference and still make it to their destinations.
Act: To do my small part, I think we can convert the bus system to being hybrid buses. This will cut down on the smog and it will also save the bus companies money so that they can hire more drivers and get more buses, which will allow more people to take the buses. This can help cut down on the amount of cars and the smog levels.
Imagine: From hybrid buses, we can move onto hybrid taxis and more hybrid cars and possibly even hybrid planes. This will not only lower smog levels and cut back on expenses, it will also begin the reversal of global warming. With everyone travelling greener, more people are likely to spend their money on things that can help stimulate the economy.

Mission 4: Health
Learn: Many people are not active, as well as having a poor diet due to the mass amounts of fast food available for our busy lifestyles. What we have to do to make a change is make a plan that people can fit into their busy schedules by working together. It is much easier to accomplish a task together than alone.
Act: Changing your lifestyle is much less daunting when you have the help and encouragement of others. By starting a simple walking group three nights a week, you can make a big difference. Even by simply choosing to walk to the nearby store or the mail down the street each time the opportunity arises. It helps in your healthy pursuit. WIth how good you'll feel from being more active, it'll lead to wanting to make more healthy choices like drinking water to stay hydrated and maybe even picking a meal with less calories and fats. My hero spoke to a family about choosing to be active instead of lounging in front of a television on a beautiful day.
Imagine: Now that we've changed hundreds of lives with our walking groups, people are eating healthy and lowering the obesity rate across the city and beyond. Since the exercise also leads to sleeping better and feeling more energized, work efficiency has also gone up. The increase in demand for healthy foods has lowered the costs and made it more readily available to the general public. The higher productivity rates at work have allowed companies to grow, leading to a growth in the economy. By making each other healthier, we've spread health farther than we could've hoped.
Super late due to multiple Flash crashes, more working hours and other classes, but it is now here. I've also realized in my hurry that I have forgotten to change it to the 600x400 and I forgot the music. I'm just happy it's done.
