Eat the View

Announce plans for a food garden on the White House lawn, making one of the White House's eight gardeners responsible for it, with part of produce going to the White House kitchen and the rest to a local food pantry. The White House is "America's House" and should set an example. The new President would not be breaking with tradition, but returning to it (the White House has had vegetable gardens before) and showing how we can meet global challenges such as climate change and food security.

Improve Public Transit

Public transit in most parts of the United States is abysmal. On Day One, the next president should start an initiative to help smaller cities get funding to build or improve public transit systems. This will help alleviate the massive traffic problems faced in so many places, reduce dependence on oil, reduce drunk driving problems, create a stronger sense of community among strangers, and help to alter the outdated patterns of development that are killing our country's natural beauty.

Create a Bureau of Multi-American Affairs

On Day One, the next president should abolish the Bureau of Public Affairs and Public Diplomacy in the State Department and replace it with a Bureau of Multi-American Affairs. This bureau would bring together leaders of civil society groups to help solve the specific challenges that America is seeking to address in world, such as climate change, post-conflict reconstruction, poverty alleviation, and public health.

Earth Ideas

First of all we need to drive electric vehicles that would be a major step. We also need to tax the rich to pay for all the changes that must take place concerning global warming. Second for those who cannot afford to buy these vehicles we need to put people to work cleaning the landfills. Yes you heard me right- cleaning out landfills and teaching people to recycle. Hey what about putting people to work doing this .Then we can farm the land and stop building more holmes that we can do without.
