ACTIVISM
Saving the planet requires more than changing our own daily habits. To have
a greater impact on the environment, we must be activists and spread the word
about the importance of sustainable living. Below is a list of different activismrelated
activities, most of which you can do from your own couch. Don’t be afraid to
speak out against unsafe environmental practices and encourage others to do the
same.
