Cogito ergo sum. René Descartes

Am I? I'm changing it in every little action I execute.

No, serious, I know what you mean and therefore I'm often trying to change our world a little. Is it by giving people a more positive view of their live or by respecting our environment (I try to use less plastic, garbage separation etc.).

And in my opinion my education is the best way to change the world. The better my education is, the more I will be able to change in future I think.

Are you waiting?

I like "lebenlechzer"'s answer, but let us not forget that as Margaret Mead is quoted as saying, "Never doubt that a small group of dedicated people can change the world.  In fact it has never happened any other way."

We are facing political, economic and environmental crises across the globe and we need to face up to our responsibilities not only as individuals but as members of the only society (the one that is alive now) that can change what needs to be changed.  I am working to inform people about various forms of green energy, and innovative ways to produce it.  Take a look at my columns on the American Chronicle web sites or at my own web site at http://winfotech.com/energy/

Philosophy and values - philosophy

Philosophy can no more show a man what he should attach importance to than geometry can show a man from the attacks? That said, I would probably agree on the philosophy bit; but point out that philosophy may be the best way to show a man how to act regarding what he does find important. Also, I would...

Commentary on the use of philosophy in physics : philosophy

In philosophy really began with my introduction to Aristotle (though, of course, I'm by no means a complete Aristotelean) and, thus, philosophy and physics have almost always been siblings, in my mind Armchair philosophers unite. Navel-gazing at its finest.
