What will you tell your listeners so they will remember your great idea? **//We will tell everyone that everyone is destroying their own world by creating conflict and that we are lucky to have the earth but we are destroying it.//** > > **//Our Pitch: Have you ever thought how terrible the world has been to itself? Have you ever wondered why the world is like it is? Well we are making a movie to reveal some of the main reasons why conflict exists in this world and what might be some of the ways to put a stop to it. Our film will show some of the terrible and disturbing things that the world has been doing, we will show how much the world is suffering to state a strong message to people that we have to change and bring peace before we destroy ourselves. We plan to make the film catchy and interesting so that people will actually want to watch the film, we don't want our film to be boring because people will just stop watching the film. We will create this film for all ages so anyone can watch it. Our goal is to bring people to realization how much we need to change and how. We will also show some of the ways on how to bring peace to people and how we can all agree with each other and stop war. We will give a clear message in a catchy movie, so people will hopefully watch with interest but they will also understand the massage and maybe even d something about all the conflict. We want this to reach everyone so we will post this on You Tube where everyone can see it, lots of people go to You Tube so I'm sure people will watch. One thing that people do is that they share things with other people, if someone likes our film then they just might show others and people can keep showing each other until a lot of people know about this. You Tube is a great place to make this public. Our film has very high chances of being successful, plus if some one important watches it then there really could be change in the world. We will do a presentation film where there will be pictures of people suffering, then we will be speaking about all the things that are happening all over the world. We will do research to find out about a lot of the things happening on earth and we will interview people for i9deas on how to make peace. Our project can be extermely successful.//** > > = Planning Your Project  = > == Phase 1: Defining Your Task == > //Describe what you need to do in this project.

His main ambition was to be free from the British not by war or fighting, but by noncooperation. ahae didn't cooperate with the government and did not do what he was told. Gandhi helped expand womens rights, he brought ethnic and religious harmony and he put a stop to untouchability. One of Gandhi's famous acts is the Dandi March, he marched for salt the indians were making salt, the brtish were taking it from them and selling it back with a higher price, Gandhi decided to make his own salt, about ten thousand people got together with him to marched across the city the soldiers kept hurting the people but more kept coming and coming and coming, in the end they had to give up and in the end, they got to make their own salt.
