a cause worth getting behind

As the idea of missions and what not come up, as it always does around this time of year. FCA just announced there mission trip, and several others are talking about other things. I have started doing research in something I think would be interesting, doing an engineering mission. Get on board with 1 laptop per child, the roundabout water pumping station (places a merry go round for the kids to play, and a school, the merry go round pumps water as the kids play, who says you can't harness the kids energy), placing cheap wind turbines in remote areas to harness the power, and the best to me or possibly one that I would love to get on (either in research, though I have no clue maybe in the dispersial or something), the color changing land mine detection. We always hear the US spends 200-300 million dollars to remove 10,000 mines while 24,000~ people die because of mines, it seems just stupid, yet if you plant a plant that will tell you where they are, it woundn't be hard to remove, you could just create special guns or what not, and also people could use fields. This comes about when it's said 90% of angola is not livable because no one know where the mines are located. So that's just my thought on the whole mission trip thing.
