SODA CAN FIRE STARTER
The value of a can of soda might be more in the packaging than the contents in a survival scenario. The empty can is useful as a fire starter. Should you find yourself in need of a camp fire, a carelessly tossed soda can could be a lifesaver.
Use materials you have on hand to polish the can to a glossy finish. The finest grade steel wool is 0000 and can be used to achieve the finish with a few minutes of polishing. Other products that could work include a paste made out of baking soda or scouring powder or even toothpaste.
The polishing can takes about an hour. The tinder will likely ignite in less time if you have good materials.

HERE ARE THREE OF THE EXAMPLES OF THE FUN THEORY PROJECTS:
In this first example, the goal was to increase the use of trash receptacles by members of the public. Watch to see how they found a way to make using a trash can so much fun that a boy is seen looking for more trash to place inside the bin.
Here, the object was to increase bottles placed into the recycling bin. A few flashing lights later, a crowd gathered to cheer on their fellow recyclers.
We all know that taking the stairs is better for us than taking the escalator. In this video watch the time elapsed footage that shows a dramatic shift in use of the stairs when the steps are creatively covered.
