Small actions that are inconsequential when considered as single event add up to big changes when 1% or 10% of people do them.
This goes for positive or negative actions. It only takes a small fraction of people littering to make somewhere nice into a trash heap. They say eating less beef is good for the environment but that doesn’t mean you have to become a vegetarian immediately. If you eat 1/3 less meat, that could be just by skipping meat in a meal or two each week or eating slightly smaller portions, there’s likely many people like you. Not everyone can or will become vegetarian but by making the change to eat a bit less meat all every three people like you are creating a vegetarian equivalent.
One big change is realizing that while everyone is unique, countless people will be making similar decisions at any given moment.
