This project is closing... but... it will continue as abetterplace.io!
Reduce stress in the world. It has many sources: from big issues like hunger & disease to daily hassles like noise. A demanding job & time pressure or stress of unemployment. Life events like losing someone or moving. We all, rich or poor, wherever we are, suffer from some form of stress every single day. Reduce it & help cope! An idea from Yvonne

He's not a god, is he?
Well actually, I think he's already doing this anyway ;) No deed to emphasise it by making it his project for a month.
Eliminating stress might be more for god's, but reducing it: we can all do that on a small but significant scale every day.
Start with yourself (don't fall victim to your own stress, so you spread it less ;)!) and you can reduce other person's stress by random acts of kindness and smiling whenever there is occasion to do so :) (= continuously, with rare exceptions!)
As I said, I think Maarten's already doing this anyway!
I just took unrealistic but with necessity quite seriously :-)
And I think you adressed a very important issue too! It's obvious I don't need to inspire you on the subject, so my comment was directed at people who might be inclined to believe that they cannot contribute anything significant to reduce stress in the world, without Maarten making it his project.
I would love for him to make it his project actually, would be very curious what he would do with it :)!
