Though there are many, many things I'd like to change about our society, one big thing I'd change is the way people think about science. Climate change is very much real and I am so tired of old rich people telling the general public to calm down over it. If everyone, especially billionaires and the companies that are responsible for a majority of the world's pollution, was on the same page, things would change much faster and for the better.

We need to overcome systemic racism by understanding other cultures. I myself will try to start and continue the conversation using my writing. For example, I have already discussed Juneteenth, a holiday commemorating the end of slavery that many Americans first learned about this year following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement. Royce, the character originally introduced to discuss Juneteenth, will have a major role in an upcoming chapter inspired by the new Netflix holiday film Jingle Jangle, which has a mostly black cast. We also need to invest in cleaner forms of energy in order to stop climate change, which my massive semi-autobiographical novel, The Autistic Snail, also covers extensively. For instance, one of the main issues I have covered that relates to climate change is the bushfires in Australia, which has been discussed using a wide variety of Australian characters, such as a platypus girl named Ava and a family of five kangaroos.

i think i'd change the casual and systemic racism we have in society today. some types of racism are so common that the average person wouldn't even consider it racist. not only that, but there is also our corrupt prison and justice system which is constantly pitted against minorites.

If i were to change one thing about society it would be to give money into the peoples hands. the Government spends so much money and you barely ever see it help you personally. this would help lower income communities and help stop rampant poverty and homelessness.

If I could change anything about society, I think the first thing I would do is enforce the accepting of different peoples, regardless of religion, race, culture, sexuality, and etc. Without basic human decency, where you are respectful of people outside of your own culture, we cannot progress on anything without the fear of prejudice clouding others' judgement.

I'm not sure, but I think it would be great to reform the public education system. Providing equal opportunities for all students should be a priority.

I would want there to be no more poverty. I would want leaders to take climate change more seriously and there's more but I feel like someone else will explain.

The thing that I would change about society today is that all people would be treated equally and fairly by all people and by society and the government and workplaces. Even if it appears that people have equal rights from the outside there is still so much discrimination in our society based on things that people cannot control about themselves. This is completely unacceptable, there is no reason that people should be treated so poorly by their own country based on something they were born with.

If i had the opportunity to change things in the world is the systematic racism in the world as well we should get rid of student debt and make education more accessible to everyone without the fear of being in debt for the rest of one's life.

I would want to change systematic racism, and any sexist thought processes. With this, we can get closer to having equality for everyone, and there would be less troubles with treating people.

I want world hunger to end and I feel like if everyone pitched in and really cared for others, we would be able to make sure that everyone has shelter. I do not like that there are homeless people everyone should have a place and I know we could make that happen.

I genuinely believe that we need to bring back minding our own business. Like people but so much energy into worrying about other people just to bash them when they could put the same amount of energy into worrying about someting that actually matters. So many people are worried about Harry Styles in a dress when it literally does not affect them in any way. So many people are worried about same sex couples when it literally does not affect them in anyway. If someones actions or existance are not causing harm to them or anyone around them. MIND YOUR BUSINESS

This is a hard question because there are so many things that I would like to change. I would want no more poverty, more help for the homeless, a cleaner environment, and a big one is I would want equality for everyone. No more racism, sexism, etc.

i think one of the main things I would like to change is creating a better understanding of mental health issues and making help more accessible to everyone.

i think i'd like to change the public education system to be focused on education rather than grades and make it more accessible to everyone

I have a lot of issues that I would fix; however if I was able to fix one, it would be the education system. Education is not as accessible; especially college. The only people who can really afford all of it are people who are rich, which just eliminates those lower class people from participating in such education at all. Sure we have financial aid, but we need a universal education system that allows everyone to go to college. I also believe that community college is perceived as being a negative option which is simply untrue. It's sad how people shame one another for choosing a more financially viable option. This is why we need to revamp the American Education system.

I would want poverty and world hunger to end. I'd also like to change systematic racism and do better for the environment.
