Take Action

To make a difference, you must act in the real world. It’s election day in Denmark, and I’ve done my civic duty. My single vote probably doesn’t change the outcome, but it has more impact than a hundred online posts.

One of the insidious problems of social media is that it creates the illusion of action. I have liked, commented, and subscribed, and now the world will definitely change. Not.

The only way to change the world is IRL: vote in elections, volunteer for causes you support, and buy products that harm the planet as little as possible. Take action today—online doesn’t count.
