<br>Hello everyone. This time I am encouraged to participate in the weekly initiative that @galenkp presents to us for in the [@weekend-experiences](https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@galenkp/weekend-engagement-writing-prompts-week-138), and that although I read the posts of my colleagues, I always miss the time and I do not manage to enter (sad for me).
<br>I love the literary and logical thinking exercises that you proposed for this week, so my post will address the solution to the issue of homelessness.
<br>The world being so vast, it is inconceivable to me that there are people who do not have a place to live! I consider that in many cases, the retention of land that is not suitable for agriculture or livestock, makes no sense, beyond the imperious need of humans to hoard material things to fill emotional voids.
<br>Thinking productively, the owners of these lands could take better advantage of them if they proposed to urbanize them and generate dividends that enrich the initial value of the lot, of course, as long as they are considered suitable for that purpose (although truth be told, I doubt that they are not).
<br>It is also possible to see spaces in which after having built a house, the rest of the land is wasted, which could be an opportunity to generate passive income by building houses that can be rented.

<br>If something has been proven is that the people who have less, but who come for help, are the ones who best comply with the provisions that are given at the time of receiving them. It is not a matter of charity, but to provide them with a point of support on which to start a life project in a dignified manner.
<br>Obviously, there are cases of all kinds of people who, after helping them, end up being the ones who abuse the nobility and compassion of the other, but that is another topic on which a very interesting debate could be generated.

<br>Now, a house is not built by itself, many materials and labor are obviously necessary. But although the process is a bit slower, the realization of ecological blocks could help not only to solve the housing problem, but also to purify the earth from plastic pollution.
<br>There are even some companies that make blocks with compacted plastic that work just like those made with cement.
Everything is in generating a plan of action that unifies strategies that are walking separately, and that for convenience of those in power simply are not put to work in the same direction.
<br>But if at the moment of asking for help regarding the housing issue, we give them the ideas and the tools (which are at hand, since discarded plastic is one of the most abundant), those really interested will take action and start the process.
<br>Additionally, if we see it as a business idea, the collection and elaboration of ecological blocks can also be seen as a way to encourage work among those who have not had the opportunity (or wanted to do so at the time) to study and obtain a profession.
<br>For example, in Argentina there are many cardboard, aluminum and plastic collectors, who roam the streets looking for this raw material to sell to recycling centers, but due to lack of knowledge, they are not able to take advantage of it beyond the monetary reward from an external entity.
<br>Obviously, the type of housing that can be made with this material is far from being a big house or a building, but at least it can provide a decent space to spend the night and live in a decent way, away from the streets and the weather.
<br>Perhaps I seem very dreamy with my proposal, but I believe that if you believe it, you are able to make it, and I have seen many testimonials of people that although they are not dream homes, they have achieved with this idea, to have a roof of their own.
