An idea worth spreading

In the present day the life styles of people are changing very rapidly, but i feel they are not changing in healthy way as we might expect. It is important to change the mind set of specially youth who are our future hope. I feel it is required change the mind set of the people of India in the sphere of social responsibility regarding keeping public places clean and following rule of law etc. I feel TED is a very good platform to spread such new ideas
