Name of Your Project Proposal:
Last Ditch Effort

Explain the Problem:
In approximately 5 months a meteor will hit the earth. When the meteor hits it will cause great changes to temperature, as well as cause tsunamis and other natural disasters. As a result of all these catastrophic events life will have little to no chance of surviving.One million people have the chance to be saved, who will they be?

Explain the Solution (sanctuary for 1,000,000 people):
The underground cave will contain 1,000,000 American citizens who possess skills that will ensure the survival of the human race for two years until the earth it is safe enough for these 1,000,000 to live on Earth's surface. After approximately two years, the Earth’s surface should be stable enough to sustain human life. The cave itself will be under the control of the Supreme Court and their judgments will be enforced by military personnel stationed in the cave. As well as the 1,000,000 Americans in sanction, the cave will contain two of each animal to ensure that once the citizens emerge from the cave there will be sources of food other than plants. The cave will accept individuals that that meet the requirements to enter as is explained below.

Explain How You Would Choose:
(A somewhat equal number of single males and females without disability, illness or unfit medical history between the ages of 18-50)

- Military

- Farmers

- Carpenters

- Engineers

- Doctors

- Nurses

- Veterinarians

- Professors

- Environmental Scientists

- Lawyers/Supreme Court to run government to protect the constitution

- Hunters

Explain Why This is the Best Solution Possible, Given the Conditions:
This is the only solution we have. If life is to have a chance of being sustained then this is our only option. We need people that fit our criteria because they will be the only people who can get civilization back on their feet. It may take years, but it may be done. We need to pick the cream of the crop these are the most physically and anatomically well people, they must be strong independent individuals without strong ties to a family they wish to bring with them, and most of all they have to have the most important jobs to society.With these combined elements this is our best plan to sustain life after the meteor.

Explain Why This Plan is FAIR:
This plan is fair to the extent of choosing the most important jobs that our society cannot function without. All the other job that aren’t important will not make the cut since we can live without them. We also selected males and females between the ages of 18-50 since they can be independent in their own survival; not being dependent on anyone else. Since there will be a ditch with one million people, there may be ailments going around already. So, to keep us from having more illnesses than necessary; anyone with a medical history within their family is not invited to survive in the ditch.
