- 3. ONE WAY OF ADDING VALUE TO A MATCHBOX WOULD BE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF OUR MATCHSTICKS POURING TO THE GROUND EACH TIME WE FORGET WHICH SIDE IS THE RIGHT WAY UP. THIS CAN BE EMBARASSING, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU OFFER TO LIGHT SOMEONES CIGARETTE OR WHEN YOU’RE COOKING… I CAN THINK OF SO MANY OTHER WAYS THIS PROBLEM MIGHT HAVE EMBARASSED US.

- 10. RISKS ATTACHED TO LIGHTING A MATCHSTICK • IF NOT EXTINGUISHED PROPERLY MATCHES FLARE UP AGAIN WHEN DROPPED IN BINS OR ON THE GROUND. BURST FLAMES ARE LIKELY ( APPROXIMATELY 1/10 TIMES) TO DEVELOP IF DROPPED ON FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AND ACCELERANTS (DAEID, 2004, P.27). SOME OF THE HAZARDS ATTRIBUTED TO FIRES CAUSED BY MATCHSTICKS ARE: • LOSS OF LIFE. CHILDREN ARE MORE AT RISK TO FIRES CAUSED BY MATCHSTICKS (EAST SIDE FIRE DEPARTMENT, 2016; THE CITY OF MARSHALL TEXAS, 2016; GOVERNMENT OF WEST SUSSEX, 2016). • LOSS OF PROPERTY (DAEID, 2004, P.27-28; EAST SIDE FIRE DEPARTMENT, 2016). • ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (DAEID, 2004, P.28).

- 11. SOLUTION : STEPS TO RISK MITIGATION PLEASE VISIT MY FACEBOOK PAGE FOR MORE IDEAS [HTTPS://M.FACEBOOK.COM/IDEASTOCHANGETHEWORLD/]. THANK YOU. WHEN WE DO NOT HAVE AN ASHTRAY , WE COULD FORM THE HABIT OF PLACING OUR BURNT- OUT MATCHSTICKS IN AN EMPTY MATCHBOX. WE CAN TAKE THIS A STEP FURTHER BY PLACING AN EMPTY SMALLER MATCHBOX INTO A BIGGER MATCHBOX, AND THEN DROP OUR USED MATCHSTICK(s) INTO THE SMALLER MATCHBOX.
- 12. SOLUTION : STEPS TO RISK MITIGATION PLEASE VISIT MY FACEBOOK PAGE FOR MORE IDEAS [HTTPS://M.FACEBOOK.COM/IDEASTOCHANGETHEWORLD/]. THANK YOU. DEVELOPING THE HABIT OF PLACING THE SMALLER MATCHBOX – FILLED WITH BURNT-OUT MATCHSTICKS - INTO THE LARGER MATCHBOX, SAVES YOU FROM MISPLACING THE SMALLER MATCHBOX AND AT THE SAME TIME OFFERS YOU A CLEAN AND EASY WAY TO TEMPORARILY STORE AND CARRY USED MATCHSTICSKS.
- 13. SOLUTION : STEPS TO RISK MITIGATION PLEASE VISIT MY FACEBOOK PAGE FOR MORE IDEAS [HTTPS://M.FACEBOOK.COM/IDEASTOCHANGETHEWORLD/]. THANK YOU. AFTER SOME TIME, THE SMALLER MATCHBOX WOULD GET FILLED UP WITH BURNT-OUT MATCHSTICKS . THIS TIME-LAG GIVES YOU THE ASSURANCE THAT YOUR USED MATCHSTICKS ARE SAFE FOR DISPOSAL AND ARE LESS LIKELY TO BE A SOURCE OF COMBUSTION.
- 14. SOLUTION : STEPS TO RISK MITIGATION PLEASE VISIT MY FACEBOOK PAGE FOR MORE IDEAS [HTTPS://M.FACEBOOK.COM/IDEASTOCHANGETHEWORLD/]. THANK YOU. THE DESCRIBED METHOD OF MATCHSTICK DISPOSAL IS SAFE, EFFICIENT, EASILY REUSABLE AND COST EFFECTIVE. I BELIEVE THAT LEARNING NEW WAYS TO ADD VALUE TO OUR LIVES IS A CONTINUOUS PROCESS THAT REQUIRES CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT. I HOPE THAT THESE IDEAS BECOMES AN ACCEPTED NORM.
