We need to take responsibility for our own behavior

Many people wonder why we are not doing more toward a healthier planet. I believe one reason is that it is tempting to believe that our behaviors are caused by social pressure or are being dictated by others, instead of being responsible ourselves.

The consequence of not feeling responsible is that we see our damaging behavior as morally acceptable and don't change our behavior. So, please take responsibility for your actions instead of waiting for others to go first. Thank you!
