This morning on a panel for Missouri State University related to #climatechange, food security & the future, I got a version of the same question I'm asked at every event:
"What can I do personally to make a meaningful difference?"
There are so many ways to answer this, but I thought it would be interesting to share the question on #Mastodon.
How do you have impact? Find hope? Take action?
@Sheril I'm vegetarian and don't drive, but I think most directly (?) we need to end the political power of the fossil fuel industry. To this end, I try to spread awareness to get pro-Oil politicians out of power. In the US, these are mostly Republicans but there are some pro-Oil Democrats too.
I don't like reducing everything to politics, especially on a question about individual action, but I think this is today's reality that we have to deal with.
