Maine Issues

A major issue in Maine that the Yes Men would look at and observe is the issue of drinkable water. Throughout the University of Maine Campus and throughout Orono and water is very unsafe to drink. This has become an issue for students as well as residents of Orono and puts them at risk to get sick. Considering that the Yes Lab already did a project regarding the safety of water, I think they would strongly approve of tackling the issue of Maine water.

Another issue across the UMaine campus is the issue of parking. People are constantly late to school and parking lots are constantly overcrowded and full due to the excessive amount of people and cars. A solution for this problem would be to possibly have a transportation bus or bike across campus that would limit the amount of student’s bringing their cars to campus. This would allow students to volunteer to help drive or bike students across campus and they would also be benefitting the community and overall function of parking. I think the Yes Men would enjoy coming up with an idea that students would approve of and that would function properly throughout campus.
