The Oklahoma City Diet
You may have heard recently of Oklahoma City's new diet. Mick Cornett, mayor of Oklahoma City, wants the city to lose 1 million pounds in 2008. We want to know what you think? Do you like these kinds of initiatives and think they put a city on the right track, or do you think it's a waste of money as the government shouldn't be telling us what to do? Please stop by and leave your ideas on city initiatives today!

Fire Safety in Oklahoma
Every year we are reminded that we live in a state with some of the most volatile weather in the country. Inevitably there will be times, like last year, that we have 21 straight days of rain. Still other times we'll go a month without seeing any precipitation and the entire state will be in a fire watch.

What's your agenda?
As we enter 2008, we are reminded all that Oklahoma accomplished in 2007. We at 100 Ideas believe that one of the greatest things accomplished in our centennial year was the creation of a blueprint, for Oklahoma, by Oklahomans.

Nuclear Power
The state of Oklahoma, like many other states, is evaluating different options when discussing how best to produce power in the future. One idea that continues to rise to the forefront of this debate is nuclear energy. Countries like France get a majority of their power from nuclear energy. Many argue that it is safer than it was, and is cleaner than fossil fuels. We want to know what you think. Send us your ideas on Nuclear Energy and on Energy Policies today!

Amending the Parole Process
Over the course of this year, we at 100 Ideas have received a wide variety of ideas. One recurring idea was to amend the parole process. Many complained that it was an antiquated system, or that it was wasteful, or unjust. Most solutions ranged from removing gubernatorial oversight to the process to adjusting punishments to fit their crimes. We want to know what you think! Send us your ideas on the parole process and on criminal justice today!
