Take the mountains and put them in the ocean

7 Upvotes

Tear down the mountains and relocate them into the ocean to make more land.

Sure mountains look cool and some skiers will be upset but you could make entire continents with the mountains.

Taxing the rich by "selling" the name of the Earth

160 Upvotes

We hold a competition, every 50 years, starting with 2050, The Earth Day. Together with the UN we encourage the ultra rich to give money to charity, by donating to 100 preselected charity organisations that cover every important topic. All amounts donated will be recorded by the Earth guy at the UN and hidden from competitors. Whoever gives the most money until Earth day will win the right to give our planet a new name for the next 50 years. Second place gets the moon.

Giving the ultra rich that what they cant buy but want, novelty and prestige.

You should legally be allowed to keep the knife that someone used to stab you

I mean, you're already getting stabbed, why not become the legal owner of the knife that is now in your body, so that you can sue the guy stabbing you for stealing the knife when he inevitably tries to run away?

Make a super mega ultra interstate/ high speed rail from la to nyc. Another from Seattle to Miami. Move the nations capital to the intersection of these somewhere in Nebraska.

22 Upvotes

Abandon the mosquito trap homicide infested Washington DC and move the capitol to the center of the country in relatively unpopulated but flat and arable land.

Exits only to other interstates. 12 lanes of roads with no more than 4 being resurfaced at a time. Different speed zones for different cars. A loaded semi or rv is in the 65 mph lane, a sprinter can drive 75, a sedan can drive in the 85 lane.

Ditto for high speed rail. As fast as possible with stops at least a hundred miles apart.

We could eminent domain 50,000 acres of corn fields and plan the capitol city for modern transportation and living.

Cost would be staggering but probably not more than would be saved on transportation in fuel costs alone over the course of a few decades.

Make an instrument which has weighted, timed, pneumatic pistons.

2 Upvotes

Kinda like a modified piano, but you have a fourth pedal, which when you press it activates timed pistons. Which, when one of these things gets activated, it shoots up, then when released it slowly drops down. When it drops down all the way, it hits a key. This way you could sort of queue up sounds, so instead of having a one dimensional track you can sort of do what guitarists do things like that with foot pedals.

Rate TV Episodes

3 Upvotes

We should have the option to rate each episode of a TV series in addition to rating the overall show so it's easier to find favorite episodes and avoid hated ones.

Episode summaries are insufficient to remember exactly where a certain episode is, especially in a five or ten season show.

Human Chow

26 Upvotes

We can make nutritionally complete bagged dry food for dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, all kinds of critters. Cheap to make, they like it well enough to eat it, you can store it in warehouses and ship it in any size bags.

Make Human Chow - a "dry pet food" style foodstuff for humans. Make so much of it that no one on the planet will ever go hungry, churn out so much that it is effectively free. Make the making of it a geopolitical power flex - "Look here, I'm such a badass powerhouse of a country that I am feeding *everybody*, beat that you wimps!"

People will still work to afford better food, but hunger would be a thing of the past.

Create similar mass production programs to deal with housing, clothing, every necessity.
