1. Save the lives of girl children
Probably the most important problem to solve. For if you educate a young girl you educate a family, reduce disease, overpopulation, environmental impact, hunger and a host of other issues. This film brings this issue to life rather dramatically: The Girl Epidemic.
2. Call your local politician
Most people won’t be able to save the world all by themselves. Politicians on the other hand can’t save the world without you. They need public support and public pushing to drive home legislation that can make the world a better place.
3. Buy fewer but better things
Remember what mom used to say “quality not quantity”. Excess and mass over consumption aren’t the answer to happiness and in this new era of economic malaise, more and more people think it’s kinda gross.
4. Don’t buy pirate copies
Ok who doesn’t like the idea of buying a cheap Rolex? Well, not me. Don’t buy pirate copies and you minimize the chances that you’re getting a product that’s bad for the environment and most likely made by children in some far off place.
