I’ve found that when you bring this sort of goal up among people who don’t share the same passion, even if they are close to you, you usual get some raised eyebrows and the odd, good humored, chuckle. It can be discouraging, as I’m sure you all know. Many people like to fall back on “One person can’t make a difference”. The unfortunate thing is, that is absolutely true. If there was only one person in the world trying to fix things I’d say, for the first time, they were trying to do the impossible.

I think to truly accomplish our goals here, that we need to spread the passion we all have. No easy feat. What I try to do, is take every chance I get to be an example to those around me. Asking our friends not to litter is one of the easiset.

I’d like to hear your personal examples. I think sharing them would be quite encouraging.
