This is a very good question.. A friend of mine and I always debate the views of an idealist with that of realism, look it up.. For myself though, I can make the world more aware as I become more aware, and as I develop the motivation and determination to make the world a better place.. For many idealists, they see the world as war torn, greedy, and selfish planet, that they want to change because it affects them. .For others, they see a world in which they are able to help out.

There's a story about a buddhist lama and his student. The student looked at nepal and said he saw poverty, dirtiness, and suffering, and the the lama said he saw a pure land... To me, this means that depending on how our mind is and how we act, this will determine our perception of our reality and world

. What do we do about global warming, well, most can't do much in their position. but with motivation, determination, and the awareness, then they will make the best use of their position. So, Motivation, determination, awareness, and action.. hope this helps. there's more, but this is just the beginning.. cheers!
