We’ve all seen top ten lists of things you can do to save the environment. You can usually find them at the end of books about the end of the world or on activist websites.
More often than not, they are somebody’s list of favourite actions, not anything that is designed to really make a difference
Ours is different. Very different. Our top ten list is at the heart of our activities, from our campaigns and information services to the way we are organizing a united movement.
- Our list reflects the ecological cycle. It starts with nature, flows through key resource and consumption choices, and ends up with the waste we return to nature.
- Our list also closely matches the key categories under the ecological footprint model: home, transportation, energy, and food.
- Our list recognizes that we are all different and live in different circumstances. We give you the high level action, and it’s up to you to decide how you can best take action.
- Each of the ten actions also represents an area of focus for the environmental movement as a whole. This means that for each action, we can point you to groups that help you. In fact, we’ve designed our whole provincial voluntary transition strategy around these ten actions.
In other words, our top ten list of actions will help connect your personal commitment into a growing and united movement. Together, we can transform Ontario into a conserver society. Neat, huh.
Here’s the list….. www.weconserve.ca/topten.html
