The Power of Social Movements

Social Movement: a grassroots movement to implement change. The Civil Rights Movement was a social movement and look what it accomplished. If there were plenty of social movements today that were more environmentally focused, there would be more people living sustainably. One can be cutting work hours. Less time at work leads to more time with family and friends, and more time to rest and concentrate on the environment.

We can also try to let people know that using fewer resources can make everything else last longer.
