You are responsible for the impact of your choices. Make mindful, conscious purchases, because there is a hidden environmental or human cost to almost everything we buy. Our power lies in the pause before we reach for our wallets.Do what you can. If I fly for work or to fight climate change, I buy carbon offsets via Carbonfund.org. I also minimise my plastic use, carry cloth bags, shop in zero-waste shops and find ways to detox my home from chemicals.
Research has shown that the most effective change can happen close to home. Get involved by attending local meetings and neighbourhood councils, or joining regional organisations that are invested in your community. Do everything you can to have an impact in your corner of the world.6. Use social media to amplify your message or organisation
