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?

Food security: I give to both Feeding America https://www.feedingamerica.org/ and the local Second Harvest food bank (google for your local branch).

Climate change: I recycle everything I can. We just switched our gas stove to a much more efficient induction one, we replaced the gas furnace with a heat pump when we moved here, and we have hybrid vehicles.

Hope? That's harder.
