Like Seafire, my wife and I too were born in 1952 ('twas a very good year.) I must give all the credit to my little wifey since she is the one who is making the world a better place. Everyone loves her. She makes you laugh. She is always giving and rarely takes. She loves "old people" and is very considerate of them, always speaking to them at church, and serving them. She volunteers her time to help with community activities. She sacrifices her wants for those of her children, but especially for me. She reminds me so much of my mother, who was a Godly women, loved in the community, served her family and my dad, but was unfortunately taken so young in life (46 years old.) I am the luckiest man in the world to have had my mom and my lovely wife in my life! Think Proverbs 31!

I really don't see how one could be a hunter and not make the world a better place.
Hunting does that through conservation.
I think we all have that card punched.

surprised more people havent mentioned volunteer work. Or maybe people dont volunteer much. I think that is one of the ways I make the world a better place. I am a firearm safety training instructor, president of my local Pheasants Forever chapter (which does a lot of youth and habitat activities), board member of a local sportsmens club, member of a number of conservation orgs, on the finance team at church, take care of the kids in the church nursery, and probably the biggest thing is i never pass a kid's lemonade stand without stopping and buying a lemonade.
And then I am raising my 3 kids to be conservative little hunters and fishermen! Oh, and almost forgot this, i am Vikings, Twins, and Gophers fan which obviously makes this world a better place! You were doing great, right up to that last line, then it all fell apart...

Have you made, or are you making the world a better place?
Yes.
Racists don't make the world a better place. They're losers and breed hate which does the world no good Your choices are your own fella...just don't ask me to buy into them. And I won't ask you to buy into mine.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

To be honest it wasn't until my fourties that I started to think of others. I guess I was so wrapped up in my family and career.
At some point I started volunteering, quietly helping the private Christian school, quietly helping the local mountain bike club, quietly helping the local conservation club reforest our valley bottom, etc.
In our little cities river bottom we have now got more 6,000 trees planted. It won't really be noticeable until I'm sucking food out of a straw but it will make a difference.
Why? Not sure, makes me feel good in a very satisfying way. So yes, in my own small way I'm trying to give something back.

Does feeding the world with azzloads of oil and gas count? I reckon I am on at least 90 years of production in my short 30 year career.

Basically the world is in an ever increasing downhill spiral. Trying to not make it a worse place on my account. Win some - - - lose some.

Not to pat myself on the back but by some of my efforts volunteering and my ethics as a whole I think I have made it a better place but there's a lot of work for myself and others to do
