People power has brought in seat belts in cars. It has changed attitudes to drink driving. It has stopped smoking in public places. Each individual action is important & together we do have huge power. It's the Butterfly Effect.🦋
Unless everyone does something the Climate Emergency will get worse. It's no good trying to pass responsibility on to someone else. YOU have to ACT. You have to take responsibility for what you are doing or not doing. LEAD by example.
This is my simple list of what everyone can do.
Practical Ways to save the Planet in the face of the Climate Emergency
1. Leave the fossil fuel Car at home. If you must drive, reduce air pollution by driving an Electric car.
2. Rethink how you travel for shorter journeys – get a Bus. Boost your physical & mental health Cycle or Walk.
3. Reduce aviation growth. Fly less - Train not Plane.
4. Reduce Energy use & save money. Change your lightbulbs. Turn down heating thermostats.
5. Insulate your home.
6. Eat less Meat & Dairy to also reduce the risk of health problems.
7. Reduce, Reuse, Repair & Recycle.
8. Help to make your Garden or Local area wildlife & pollinator friendly. Grow your own food.
9. Lobby politicians – they need to know how much you care.
10. Donate to support the climate.
And AVOID PLASTIC.
Just think what we could achieve. There is no Plan B. There is no Planet B.
Your Choice.
