The changing world of Today
Where to next. What choices do we all have?
I wake up and wonder what can I do!
A sense of dread is around, as the media loves to play to our natural instincts to worry endlessly. Global warming, land rights shifting, wild places becoming rarer. It is truly endless as to what to worry about.
A young person dies much before there time. It is a wake-up call that life is short. What are we doing here on this goldilocks planet with such limited time? The earth will heal it is us who is at risk. So, what’s next?
So do I conform to society and carry-on buying goods to keep an economy going. An endless stream of plastic goods that bring me happiness in the moment but once were home the feeling quickly dissipates.
Or do I go out into the world and challenge the general thinking. Do I look for opportunities to get involved and make micro changes in both my habits and the environment around me.
Find small meaningful projects to support not only with our time but what little money we can afford. Support the planet first organizations with our consumer dollars. We look for opportunities for better packaging or non at all. We look to move in this world more efficiently. We look to our own back yard for travel opportunities. We look to our immediate community for support in our biggest fears and we take meaningful action.
Knowing that you got involved to provide your kids with a better future. A place where you are not chasing the next big thing. One that is formed in a strong sense of community and doing what you can where you can and it making the change you hope to see in the world.
