“As much as we would all like to think that our personal household decisions can solve the sustainable challenges we are facing, the truth is that most of these challenges require significant changes from millions of people. Change at the level needed can realistically only happen with requirements and incentives from the federal level. Vote, write letters to Congress, join advocacy groups that lobby for good policies, volunteer for get-out-the-vote efforts and then be kind to everyone.”
