Social media has proven to be a critical advocacy tool, but wariness of e-advocacy from our generation will be equally essential in creating an increased global solidarity and consciousness that pressures policymakers, powerful private interests and other roadblocks to solving inequalities, climate change etc. Collective action can happen through social media, but mobilization has to take place on the ground for true, substantive change. Also, let's not forget the populations of the world (like these guys in Vanuatu Land Divers) who are not on social media or the internet and are increasingly vulnerable to climate change. Valuing their voices in the era of globalization will be a key aspect of how we define global citizenship, and who gets to participate in dialogues about our collective future. Alas, a long heady answer to a heady question. This was a rad video Thanks for posing this question to us, the VagabrofansxPolly

I went to Geneva for a day and loved the city, it's vibe but got a bit confussed with the money currency and don't know why it was hard for me to understand their dialect, adding that their prices where too high for my little argentinian travelling budget. However I'm glad I went there. As always XoXo from Buenos Aires BTW: growing up I wanted to be a diplomate too, my aunt worked for the embassy of Paraguay and she has been all over the world (so jealous) but then life got in the way and I studied science instead so now I'm helping the world/my community in a different and more direct way.

Unity is so many ways is the great need of the age and social media spreads a variety of positive aspects of unity in diversity. The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens. The well-being of mankind, its peace and security, are unattainable unless and until its unity is firmly established. Bahaullah

On the down side I have to mention some West Side Story (or Porgy and Bess) ethnic gang formations that intimidate and even commit torts (understatement) against individuals from other places But the real problem is the real-estate monopolies and lack of realistic market. (Very politely put)

I'd say that the 4 languages are: French, German, Italian and some Switerzland one. but have no idea about how the last one is called. But I'm pretty sure someone in the comment section will either be more cultured than me or a cheeky little google user; )

Yes, I think so. Social media is a tool and as each tool it depends on how people use it. In my opinion it's a really good one because it has the power to open minds and conect people all over the world. Nice video brothers I wish I could join; -) Byeee
