“Each and every one of us can make changes in the way we live our lives and become part of the solution [to climate change].” – Al Gore, ‘An Inconvenient Truth’
More and more, people are waking up to the reality that the little things we do every day effect great change on a worldwide scale. Though recycling one bottle a day may not seem like a lot, if every one of the 308 million people in America did it every day, it seems like quite a bit more. Driving less to save a gallon of gas a month may not seem like much, but if all of the 6.8 billion people in the world did it, imagine how much less air pollution we would create.
Every time we recycle, every time we save gas, every time we buy organic or locally, we create positive change. Get excited about the changes you make. Realize new changes you can make every day. The only constant that we have in life is change. Be conscious of them and do them gladly. Every change we make changes the world.
