Speech Topics...

[brandon184]

I've been given an assignment to write a speech revolving around the topic, "If I Could Change the World" ... I have absolutely *NO* idea what I could talk about in this speech (needs to be at least 4 minutes)..

Talking about technology would be an option - but WHAT to talk about when it comes to that?!

Suggestions on other categories to talk about (and maybe what I could talk about..lol..) would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for suggestions!

Well, being in the health industry, and knowing what's happening in regard to antibiotic resistance in bacteria, I'd talk about use of disinfectants and antiseptics in the home environment, and the potential impact on bacterial resistance. You could change the world by reducing the likelihood of more antiobitic resistant "superbugs" as the media calls them, by making the home environment less disinfectant/antiseptic ridden.

I can provide some real interesting website links if you are interested in this.

Cheers
Mick, the anti-disinfectant fanatic.

Or you could talk about politics

[sven222]

start off the speach with a joke of some kind. Should loosen up the croud a bit, then you can go onto the serious stuff

[Gomer]

Should loosen up the croud a bit

was that crud or crowd

You don't want to go doing the former in front of a group of people.

lol gomer, crud, eh? ROFL make sure that your joke isn't too korny. Personally I would do something about politics, I would be able to rant forever about that..lol
