WEAR IT ON EARTH OPTIMIZATION DAY — AUGUST 6.
If 1 billion humans wear this shirt on the same day, humanity is forced to discuss the fact that it currently maintains sufficient mass-murder capacity to cause apocalypses, and that it has the option to sacrifice one of these apocalypses for disease eradication within our lifetime.

FIX YOUR EXISTING T-SHIRTS.
Do you already own a t-shirt? Even several?
If so, you can easily upgrade your existing t-shirts. The market value of a plain white t-shirt is approximately $10. The market value of a t-shirt that ended war and disease is approximately . Upgrading yours increases its resale value by approximately times.
On the front, write:
THIS T-SHIRT ENDED WAR AND DISEASE.
On the back, write:

Lay the shirt flat on cardboard so the marker doesn't bleed through. Pencil-trace if your hand is shaky. Fill in with marker. Let dry for an hour before wearing.
Do this to every white t-shirt you currently own. The first time someone sees you wearing one, they will ask. That is the point.
THE COST OF WEARING A BLANK T-SHIRT IN PUBLIC.
Conservative estimate: in 1 day of public wearing, your shirt is seen by approximately 50 humans. Assume 0.1% of seers (1 in 1,000) would convert to a verified treaty vote if your shirt carried the message. That is approximately 0.05 verified voters per shirt-day.
Each verified voter is projected to prevent approximately deaths from disease and years of suffering across their lifetime.
So 1 day of wearing a blank t-shirt in public costs approximately 0.135 deaths from disease and 24,000 hours of suffering that would not have happened if you had instead worn one with this message.
Over 1 year of public shirt-wearing, blanks cost approximately 50 deaths and 8.8 million hours of suffering.
Good news: every blank shirt in your closet is a billboard you already own, currently advertising nothing. Pick up a marker and it starts saving lives by lunch.
*Estimates use 50-seers/day + 0.1% conversion as conservative assumptions. Real numbers may be 10× higher or lower depending on visibility patterns and audience.*
