If you want to change the world, start with yourself. At
wearewhatwedo.org this saying is taken seriously: the site encourages people to change the world with simple but significant actions, and allows them to register online what they've contributed to bettering the world we live in. Here's just a few examples of the type of feasible actions suggested by We Are What We Do:
- Read a story with a child
- Take public transport when you can
- Plant a tree
- Have a bath with someone you love (or: how saving water can be fun -- see the accompanying wallpaper to brighten up your computer's desktop)
- Learn one good joke
- Have more meals together (see the accompanying BBC video here)
It may look a bit boring if you see it in a list like this, but check out the website -- it's all very cleverly and funnily done.
For a similar kind of organization operating in the Netherlands (and hence in Dutch), point your browser to
sire.nl (Stichting Ideële Reclame).
