Yes, You Can

LiDoña Wagner Primordial Muck 2022  

I am totally plagiarizing Tom Baily, co-founder of The Jump campaign. Recently he put out a statement countering the idea that individuals cannot make a difference in addressing climate change. He listed six activities individuals can engage in to dramatically reduce carbon emissions.

 

1.     Eat a plant-based diet of healthy proteins and do

      not waste any food.

2.     Buy no more than three new items of clothing per

      year.

3.     Keep electrical products for at least seven years.

4.     Take no more than one short haul flight every

      three years and one long haul flight every eight 

      years.

5.     Get rid of personal motor vehicles if you can and

       if not, hold your existing vehicle longer.

6.     Make at least one life shift to nudge the system, 

      like moving to green energy, insulating your 

      home, or changing your pension supplier.

 

If everyone followed these six guidelines it would reduce by 25-27% emissions and keep global heating down to 1.5 centigrade.
