Hm, you should have included it all :) > Many of the proposed solutions, like plant-based diets and renewable energy (via home solar) can and should be implemented by individuals on a small scale, but Earth Overshoot Day points out that: > Individuals have the power to better their homes and communities. The greatest potential for large-scale impact, however, lies with governments and businesses who align their policies and strategies with the reality of our finite planet. > But those solutions still require individuals, who must support policies or representatives who will put environmental protection first, support businesses that do the same, and make sure that their own workplaces are putting effort into these solutions. > We can only solve these problems with active participation by everybody, because if everyone just waits for someone else to solve the problem, then the problem doesn’t ever get solved.
