first problem to solve: overpopulation.

@eatingwithexpression it's not about wealth is about how limited our natural resources are. world population increase by more than 70 million more people every year. How far can this go before nations fight each other to grab scare resources (like oil)?. take a look at the news, I think that is happening right now.

I love this video!! India needs more young innovative thinkers like Harine Ravichandran, so it may develop and become a first-world country. India has the potential, but it needs to correctly channelize it through people like her. WAHOO!!!

@Mrgafa I propose a giant cliff transistor, in which everyone is funneled into the machine and then are pushed until they *accidentally* fall off a giant cliff

i loved the last line and true fact about india 'what is missing is not intelligence but the intent to change things'

i m also in one of the best collages of india and see very few people acting on these ideas........

my best wishes and motivation to the people/student who does these things and i myself will be happy to be a part of the revolution.

@Mrgafa not if we can distribute the wealth more fairly
