INSPIRE OTHERS TO THE CALL
THE DOMINO EFFECT
With the limited time available we need to create a domino effect of communication and action that gathers momentum bringing forward the date when world leaders feel confident enough of public opinion to legislate.
One of the most important actions we can take today is to spread this message and inspire others to action. In turn we need to get these others to inspire still others.
Remember…85% of the
British public would be prepared to change the way they live in order to lessen
the impact on the environment (BBC National Poll July 2004).
SOCIETAL CHANGE
Historically movements of likeminded people have achieved what at the time would have impossible. No one could have predicted for example that in less than a decade Gandhi’s civil disobedience movement would give India its freedom, or in East Germany who could have known even six months earlier that civil unrest would bring down the Berlin Wall.
We are undergoing a similar societal change today. Each of us has a choice; help to lead the transition or join it reluctantly and belatedly, impoverishing the planet by our delay.
INSPIRE OTHERS TO
ACTION
Most people don’t take individual actions not because they don’t care but because they either don’t know what to do or they don’t think their actions will make any difference.
The Actions Pledge offers 13 ideas for actions which would make a real difference.
