Look: Thinking About Saving the World

Being an environmental advocate I often think about what is the best way to clean the environment and to make it a better place.  I went to college studying geology because I was fascinated by the way the world works and one day I believe I could preserve it.  Today I work as an environmental consultant mitigating polution and protecting the people and ecology of high risk areas where contamination prevails.  However throughout my line of work I see that instead of addressing the root cause of the problem people take apon a crisis approach.  That is, they start creating action only when a problem arrises.  Same is true in the medical field.  When one is diagnosed with a condition only then they may stop smoking or eating junk food.  

They only way to save our planet is to save yourself.  Let me explain, when you take upon a more healthier mindset you want the best thing for you.  That maybe eating more nutritious food, striving for healthier relationships, buying cruelty-free hair care, and using 'green' products for your home. You're supporting the companies that do it right.  You are removing chemical toxins in and around you. You are creating an environment that is beautiful and nourishing not only for yourself but for those around you.  What is the inner, is the outer. 

Lets face it, you can't change the planet.  You cant force people to do things a certain way.  Focus on being your best self every single day.  Save yourself to save the world.
