The Challenge: Be Active!
Why?
Being active in amplifying the messages and causes your support is a crucial way to ensure change happens. While slacktivism is easy (sharing posts, expressing opinions and outrage online), it does little to create the change you want.
Advocacy encompasses a wide range of activities that influence decision makers. Advocacy includes traditional activities such as litigation, protesting, and public education. It can also include capacity building, relationship building, forming networks, and leadership development.
How?
So how do you become a more engaged environmental activist? It’s all about getting involved and becoming educated on a variety of topics! There is not a right way; the important part is starting.
