I love this question!
I don't think there is a million dollar idea. I think the first step is free, easy and can start right now.
Making the world a better place starts with everyone doing one little thing - spreading kindness. Treat people like they matter. Doesn't matter how old they are, what color they are, who they love, what they believe, where they work. Treat them like they matter (because they do). Smile. Listen to them when you ask how they are. Wish them well. EVERYONE has something to contribute of substantial value.
Try it. Smile at every single person you pass. I bet most of them smile back or say hi. Ask every person you talk to how they are, and wait for them to answer...It's amazing.
I did this yesterday in the grocery store with a crabby deli clerk - she started with a brusque "can I help you?" I responded with a smile and a "how are you?" She just kind of looked at me for a second, and said "I'm okay. What can I get you?" By the time I was done with my order, she was smiling and joking - which means that she was not crabby to the next person in line.
That's all. It's that easy.

(1) Sigmund Freud says that behaviors of a person are solely depended on his attitudes.
(2) In addition to that result of many sociological research done on human behaviors have proved that education can do a great influence to the human behaviors.
(3) Therefore, we need to make a more effective education system which increases human sensitive mind and environmental friendly attitudes if we need to make the world a better place.
Please read my profile to understand the things what I mention here well.

I don't have a million dollar idea but I believe if everyone tried to not judge others so quickly and be a little kinder to strangers it would help!

Charity Begins at home... to elborate this. Before we begin cleaning or fixing our yard, we need to fix our bedroom, before we wash and clean our car exterior, we need to clean and vacuum the interior first. Before we start cleaning or making the world a better place... we need to start with ourselves, then our immediate family (home), then our immediate neighborhood, then our community. But being at peace and living in righteousness right inside our very homes is already a big step towards world clean up. Your body is the temple of God and if you make this sacred by respecting and treating it well, everything that surrounds you will follow.

First everyone should be good in this world. If each one of us try to be good the world will be good. Help the under privilaged. Always remember that nothing in this world is everlasting. We will all die one day. Life is short. Try to live a good life. Dont hurt anyone. Dont be selfish.
Dont go behind material pleasure. All this is happening is for money or for power.

It doesn't have to be a big thing or a big project,the smallest thing can make a difference.You can start from the smallest things by volunteering and helping the community.And remember every good thing that you do will change the world and it will be a better place:)

You should do three good things or favours to three different people, and make them promise they'll do their three good things/favours to three other different people, etc! They have to be real favours, though. Not lending a pen, or scratching a back. Something like giving a burger to the homeless guy on the street, or giving someone a ride home on a rainy day!
Try it!

Yea, call God up! Eventually it'll happen w/o anyone knowing about it. Maybe with all of the wildfires, hurricanes, droughts, and other natural disasters God is cleaning the earth for people who really want to make this place a better place.

Be the best person you can be, treat others as you want to be treated, be careful with the environment. If we all did that the world would be far better
