Why do you think it is so unlikely that you could do some good in your community that would come back to you in a way that makes your own life more stable?

I am pretty sure there are lots of people in my city who are watching my back because of kindnesses I have extended.

We're talking about civilization / the world, not your local community.

What's the difference? My community is part of the world, so if I change it I change the world.

Also, changing your community is the first step to changing your city, is the first step to changing the region. At each step my same assertion applies: there is a path for having an effect. Consider changing your community "changing the world by induction".
