From little things, big things grow- Paul Kelly

Little ways - SAVE ENVIRONMENT

Find little ways to learn about nature, explore them regularly, then gradually introduce more involved activities. Little ways can gradually become profound, for example:
Find a special spot in nature, near your house, and visit it each day
care for the place little by little, taking actions to facilitate the natural ecosystem .

Gradually remove barriers between your life and nature (e.g., open the windows more often, spend more time outside, use less electricity)
eat more fresh food .
Grow your own vegetables
Calculate your personal ecological footprint - if the average American consumes 1 million pounds of materials per year (Hawken, et al, 1999), how much do you consume?

As your sensitivity to nature develops, explore more indepth interactions, e.g.,:
nature meditations and visualizations ।

Creating an organic or permaculture garden system ।

Spend time with an indigenous or environmental "elder"

Get off the grid and switch to solar power ।

Build your own simple dwelling from recycled materials ।

Why do we spend all the time, fuel, energy, etc। going on outdoor camping trips? Most of the benefits of camping (plus some extra ones) could be obtained by families sleeping in their backyards. (If you don’t have a backyard, try the balcony, roof or a friend’s or neighbor’s place).

Sleep in your backyard for at least a week each year. Cook on a fire (or a stove if fires aren’t permitted), eat home-grown vegetables, don’t watch TV or use power or the telephone. Stay on your property, but don’t use the house. Really live in your backyard and get to know and care for it. It might change your life forever – and will cost less than your everyday life.
