Our Pledge to Earth

Here at My Values Journal, we care deeply about our planet and believe it's more important than ever to understand the world around us. Our Earth is facing some very real challenges, and we think that being informed is the first step towards making a difference. 

This is Our Planet

FIGHT FOR ACTION plan:

  1. Switch to renewable energy where you can.
  2. Ditch plastic bottles - take a reusable cup to coffee shops instead.
  3. Same goes for plastic bags - keep a reusable one handy.
  4. Save electricity - turn lights off when you leave a room, don't leave your phone charging overnight, and switch plugs off at the wall.
  5. Save water - take shorter showers and wash dishes by hand where possible (unless your dishwasher is newer and more efficient).
  6. Walk, bike, take public transport, or car share instead of driving alone.
  7. Don't waste food - and if you can, start a compost bin. It reduces landfill waste and gives you great soil.
  8. Try growing your own fruit and veg, or shop at a local farmer's market.
  9. Boycott unethical companies and be mindful of the brands you support.
  10. Plant a tree.
  11. Most importantly - use your voice. Talk to the people around you, sign petitions, write to your local MP. You'd be surprised how much of a difference one person can make.
