Personal Action
It is an illusion that individual action cannot change the world. It
is the sacrifice and commitment of thousands of nameless faceless men and women who seemed to have
given up their freedoms and comfort for a cause that would not come to be during their lifetime who
build the passionate momentum which eventually changes the direction in which we travel.
Personal Action:
The most important thing we can do to save the world is live honorable and
sustainable lives. We must begin to see how every decision we make
is connected to the current state of affairs. We must realize that
every dollar we spend is actually and very literally a vote for or
against a way of life.

people see that somebody cares it gives them permission to care also.
