What can WE do at home to reduce waste, and act for the climate?
-Please Compost
-Do not use plastic stuff (not just bags but plastic junk in general)
- avoid driving needlessly
- walk and cycle more
- use public transport with patience and responsibility
- try to eat more veggies and fruits (try to become vegan if that is an option for your diet and lifestyle)
- fly less (use technology like Skype and whatsapp to avoid needless travel)
- avoid buying new clothes - recycle your old stuff and buy from op shops
- don’t waste water
- educate your children and students on responsible behaviour for climate action
- plant trees / look after greenery and animals
These are only a FEW of the many thing that can be done to initiate climate action.
Change is incremental and begins at the grassroot level. Be the change you want to see, Mahatma Gandhi said. It felt good to be in today’s protest along with other inspiring people including Donna Weston, Leah Marie, Jenny Gamble and Christina Ballico. I hung out with a few of them, and saw the inspiring posts of others. I made a small change to the world by showing up - so have thousands of others. Well done to us all.
