CONSUME LESS! I feel like that really is the key- A holistic approach is best- trying to be aware of the impact you have across the board. Eg. It's not much good being vegetarian if you're also drinking a few bottles of water from plastic bottles everyday. Preaching to others is not that effective, so leading by example is the only way in my opinion!

Sadly the people who hold the most visible positions in our society lead by an example of unchecked hedonistic consumption.

I don't think there is much hope for real change if the systematic problems are not addressed.

And of course, showing a good example is still a worthy cause.
