The Most Important Question

Essay: Give A Little


Listen Later

This week:

You’ve never had a better opportunity to improve one person’s life than you do right now.

I would argue, in fact, that there’s never been a better time to improve one person’s life than there is today.

Sounds crazy, right, considering all the destructive nonsense?

Here's What You Can Do:
  • Donate to Matriarch to help progressive working women run for office and win.
  • Volunteer with your local Surfrider chapter to protect your waterways and reduce plastic pollution.
  • Get educated about how you can start working on climate solutions by finding a climate job with Climate People.
  • 🌎️ Be heard about building climate resilience in your community and have your city council join the Global Covenant for Mayors for Climate and Energy pledge.
  • Invest in the health of our soil, forests, and oceans by investing with ReGen.
