Question of the Week–How Can One Person Make a Difference?

I have long been under the impression that there is a systemic problem with the way the US, and the rest of the industrialized world for that matter, treats the environment. Because of the consumer nature of our society, there is a real problem when it comes to conversation.

Take as an example the fact that I don’t drink alcohol, nor have I ever had so much as a drop in my life. However, the average American drinks just over 27 gallons of beer each year. So, for everyone of me, there is someone out there who makes up for what I do.

The same thing goes for recycling, and walking, and driving…etc

What’s the point. If I can’t make a difference because of all those other guys, what can I do that will actually make a difference?
