Too Big Too Fail but...ACTUALLY too big to fail. |
And you may be wondering: "What can I do? I'm just a man and/or Woman!"
Well lucky for you, there are some things you can do, personally, to help fight climate change that are easy and fun!

5) Plant Trees
The ecosystem has been quite diminished by our high demand post industrial age. Simply put if you keep taking trees out of the environment and don't put them back, well, ecosystems can collapse.
So let's plant some right on The CEO of Exxon's ass!
It may take years for a tree to grow, but the positive effects will be immediate if the roots of the tree grow deep within the colon of the billionaire whose company obfuscated the truth about the environment for decades, just for his own profiteering.
Should you not have that available, former CEO's asses can work too.

4) Change your eating habits
Look we all love meat. Even vegetarians. If you've ever tried to eat one you know it's true.
But as painful as it is, The meat industry is helping accelerate climate change. So reducing or eliminating farmed meat from your diet is a painful but necessary part of limiting the damage we cause.
But it doesn't have to be a boring drag. There are quite a few good eats that are plant based, meat substitutes that are quite delicious, and if you still need meat, you can always eat a Koch.
That's right! Instead of leaving a carbon footprint every time you attack the plate, eat a delicious Billionaire who promote not only climate denialism world wide, but also The Far Right in General. If you eat a Koch brother every day, by the third day you will have done a lot to reduce the carbon footprint!
That's hot! That's hot! |
3) Harness The Sun
The suns heat may be part of the problem, but it can be part of the solution! There's many ways to use th sun to our advantage, but just to name a few.
Save energy by drying your clothes in the sun. Hook up your house with solar powered panels. Shoot the entire Republican Party into the sun.
Sure these are small changes. We're not gonna get out of this just by doing all this. But if at least half of you go solar and find a way to shoot into the sun a party that is entirely beholden to the corporate interests that don't care about condemning our future, it'd go a long way towards changing things for the better.
Funny this one show didn't get remade. |
2) Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
I know. It sounds corny. but it's true: we throw out billions of things into thrash heaps every day. The way we consume has a cumulative effect.
So here's some of what we can do.
Reduce:
Your support for the American military.
Reuse:
Old plastic water bottles to drink water again.
Recycle:
Anything that's recyclable, obviously.
Sure, if a single person keeps a single water bottle out of the garbage or stops readily cheering for a war machine that puts tons of carbon in the air every day it might not make much of a difference, but if millions do it we might see some change.

1) Start a conversation
Now, there are many people who do not believe in Climate Change, and approaching them with the topic may be difficult.
So bring it up in casual conversations. Try this approach:
"Hey! I brought you some food. Are those shackles too tight?
Listen I wanted to talk about climate change. imagine this basement was the Earth. You can't escape either. And that feces all over the walls was carbon. You see how it accumulates?"
See? You use metaphors to get your point across. Be patient. Sometimes people will just go away without seemingly making up their minds. But be consistent, firm and get your hounds to find them and bring them back.
And that's some of the ways you can help stave off climate change. What are some of the ways you are fighting climate change but without demanding an overhaul of the entire system upon which our lives are predicated? Comment below!
