It's about taking proactive action in order to help the situation that you recognize as a problem, instead of just laying back an accepting it as something you can't change.

I suppose it could be possible to stage something, but I was hoping for stuff like Elphaba, DC, jorgelito and Eatrip. I would think that this would be about finding the problem then looking for solutions to those problems.

Well, I was discussing addressing poverty before. Do you suppose ending poverty, worldwide (which I'm not suggesting would be easy), would deal with the materialism thing? Or are you talking in more generalisms?
