Advocacy
Backing the people living in the rainforests, protecting tropical rainforests, and mitigating the crisis of climate change are the 3 mission statements of this advocacy. But you may wonder, how can you help in order to achieve these mission statements? Below are 6 ways on how you can help to achieve these mission statements.
Help Us Achieve our Mission
Support Organizations
There are many methods to support organizations, but the two most common ones are donating money and other important resources or becoming an advocate or supporter of the group. By carrying out these, the organization can attract additional supporters who will not only aid it in achieving its objectives but also aid in the dissemination of those objectives.
Spread the Word
Spreading the word will not only help others become informed individuals about this crisis but rather, it will also inform them of the different ways they can help to become one of many people fighting this crisis.
Recycle
Change to a renewable or carbon-free energy source if you can. On your roof, install solar panels. Reduce your heating by one or two degrees to be more economical. Turn off lights and appliances when not in use, or better yet, buy the most energy-efficient devices available (hint: you'll save money if you do this!). You'll be warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer, and you'll also save money if you insulate your loft or roof.
Lessen the power you use
More resources are used up when acquiring new resources, such as when mining minerals or cutting down forests. For instance, the production of recycled aluminum products requires 95% less energy than that of new ones. At-home recycling currently accounts for around 50% of recycled materials. To help with this process, rinse them out thoroughly and keep up with local rules. Recycling improperly can also slow the system down and produce extra waste.
Transform your Transport
Around one-fourth of all greenhouse gas emissions come from transportation, and numerous countries around the world are putting decarbonization plans into place. Leave your car at home and walk or bike whenever you can to gain a head start. If the distances are too considerable, take public transportation, ideally one that is electric. Offer to carpool with others if you must drive to reduce the number of vehicles on the road. Purchase an electric vehicle to stay ahead of the curve. You should take fewer long-distance flights.
Plant Trees
Deforestation, together with agriculture and other changes in land use, results in the annual destruction of over 12 million hectares of forest, which accounts for about 25% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. By planting trees, either individually or as a group, we may all help to reverse this trend.
