Too many of us have been depressed with current politics in the United States, especially when it comes to politics that affect climate change. We feel hopeless, helpless, and depressed about the future. But, here’s the thing:
Politics don’t really matter as much as we may think…
It is actually up to you and me and our friends and family members to make lifestyle changes that can make HUGE reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. We don’t need our government officials to tell us what to do!
WE, THE PEOPLE, HAVE THE POWER! Read a little further to feel empowered…
We have the power of our purses to make the best purchasing choices for the climate. (Click for our recent article about purchasing power: Power of the purse)
We have the power to sequester atmospheric carbon by planting more trees and mowing our lawns less.
We have the power to eat less methane-belching meat! (Click here for more info: Eat More Plants)
We have the power to take lots of Small Steps EVERY SINGLE DAY that add up to make a HUGE difference! (We have many articles about other small, but powerful, lifestyle changes that you can make: Climate: Small Steps Matter!)
It’s NOT up to THEM! It’s up to US. WE, the PEOPLE, have the power!
Multiply your positive impact on climate change by sharing Small Steps with your friends and family. Together, WE CAN DO THIS!
We CAN leave a livable planet for our children and grandchildren. We have the power. Believe it, it’s true!
