The question...was met with a shrug. To be quite honest, Olivia never remembered her dreams anymore due to all the dreamless sleep potions her personal Healer had her on. And because they made her drowsy, she almost always slept the entire night through. No, she'd simply woken up today with a lot on her mind. So much that it was starting to cause some nasty headaches. A new development to add to her growing number of health issues.

Stress really was a killer, wasn't it?

BUT....as she'd told herself before walking into this classroom this morning, that she'd only be focusing on the subject matter and nothing else. The goal was to learn something today without all the usual excess Liv brought along with her. Keeping it simple and bare-bones for a day, if you will.

Deep breath.

Now...about ways to improve the world. Olivia did have ideas about this. But before she could properly answer, Professor Newton's wording had thrown her off. Did she mean how one might make the world AT LARGE a better place? Including with the muggles? To be safe, she resolved to give a two-part answer. "I wasn't sure if you meant to include the entire world in this theoretical question or JUST the magical side, but...to the latter, I think more sanctuaries for endangered magical creatures would be a smart move. I think we've become more conscious as a people about the importance of protecting our own magical environments and ecosystems." Which included protecting the creatures that made those places their home, right?

"As for how we might help muggles, I think helping to purify their water supplies might be a good start." She'd read a brochure her mother had brought home over the summer concerning something called W.E.R.P.S. It was all about environmental protection. "Did you know that only 1 percent of the Earth's water is actually available to sustain people?" In her opinion, it was irresponsible for magical folk NOT to help out in the muggle world. IRRESPONSIBLE.
