I have no doubt Project Better Place has its heart in the right place, but editing a bunch of kids’ answers to so totally skew the message towards your specific agenda as they’ve done in this spot feels wrong. Again. The premise being that kids might shed light on clueless adults. Fine. I get that. But let them do it in their own words, not yours. They certainly don’t need help from the adults who screwed up the planet in the first place.Instead, why not let a more socially and economically diverse group of kids riff on what they would do to change the world? Sure, most would make less sense than Gary Busey at a wedding reception, but maybe just maybe they’ll come out with something inspired. (Okay, so you’d probably get solutions like the magic rotary helicar that buzzes around turning salt water into fresh and every day into Christmas, but at least they’d be honest responses.
(And by the way, punditz, please, whether responding to a YouTube debate question or an issue like The Davos Question, save the preamble and get to the point already. Nobody wants to hear a three minute set-up.)

I just know that I hate the shitty stock music. As for the children, um.... some are worthy of being thrown in the pit of an adult game of dodgeball. Long live the Purple headed Cobras. Also there are like two kids that sound like they're high, wtf? Oh by the way, cue cards work and if these kids were giving a more forced delivery, they'd be in the back room of a Catholic Church.
