“You may not be able to solve global problems but there’s a lot you can do to make this a more peaceful world, starting in your own community.
Think about your own environmental footprint, even small actions like saving water, moving towards a plant-based diet, helping in soup kitchens or animal shelters, raising money for a charity of your choice or simply treating the people you meet with respect, treating animals with kindness. These are the kind of projects that our Roots and Shoots members are working on.
And every year, they celebrate the United Nations International Day of Peace. And not only on this day, but throughout the year, working to foster respect and compassion and to make this better world.”
