Worldchanging has asked some top thinkers the following: In 100 words or less, what should the next president do in his first 100 days to address the planet's most pressing problems?
The answers are urgent and inspiring, with several calls for green New Deals and Apollo Programs; Marc Alt calls for a "National Office of Design." Bruce Sterling admonishes, "Respond urbanely to frenzied scoldings from aliens."
Jeremy Faludi goes beyond the text to recommend his ideal cabinet--featuring William McDonough as Secretary of Housing & Urban Development, Thomas Barnett as Secretary of Defense, and Stewart Brand as Secretary of State.
And perhaps Emily Pilloton has the nicest wrap up: "...spend the next 4 years proving us right for voting for you."
Check out all the 100 words here.
