5. What will you tell your listeners so they will remember your great idea? **My idea will be accessable to the intire world.**

I think that this world needs peace and we are so blinded by conflict that we are not being proactive. My idea to change the world is by making a website to show the pros of having peace and the cons of supproting conlict. My idea to use the internet is good because the internet is public and it can spread an idea very fast. The idea of peace will spread so fast useing my idea that our world can have a bigger and brighter future sooner rather than later. A website is a good idea because it is a very social thing, it can spread faster then any other means of communication. It is also convinient to change my ideas every once in a while. The main reason why my idea is great is because the internet is accesable to the intire world. = Planning Your Project =
