You don’t have to do it big, just do it small. You aren’t making landfills, you don’t need to save a forest. Make a little house for solitary bees on your wind

You don’t have to do it big, just do it small. You aren’t making landfills, you don’t need to save a forest.
Make a little house for solitary bees on your windowsill. Guerilla plant a tree once a week. Flower-bomb some vacant lots for the local bees. Create something useful that reduces wasteful consumption, and open source it to the world.
The key here is that everything I mentioned is a positive motion. It creates something new that is useful. You cannot create a worthwhile world just by using public transportation or biking instead of driving. Sure, reducing your footprint matters, but it will go to zero when you die anyway. Do things that can transcend your tiny life, do them frequently, and some of them actually will.
All of those things are doable with minimal effort, and everyone who does those kinds of things it changes the world in significant ways.
