What you can do right now is explore the above links. Read and understand what they synergistically tell you. Then tell as many other people as you can about this web site. It's free and only seeks to help educate people on the problem and to show them that there are solutions. Only then can we take collective action to resolve the problems. After all the first step in fixing something is recognition that its broken. Ok. The Earth's ecosystem is broken and we did it. Let's step up to the plate and fix it.
So please get busy and help out any way you can. Plant plants of every sort, everywhere you can; trees, bushes, shrubs, spices, flowers or whatever suits your tastes. Just plant it and help it grow. We would suggest at home to focus on native landscaping. If you see a spot somewhere and nothing is growing there; plant something. Every roof of every building is one huge opportunity. We don't often think about roofs as a place for plants but if you have an opportunity to look down on all the roofs in a city or town you'll see what we mean. The medians of roads is another, parking lots are yet another. Reduce hot spots. Plants act as a 'carbon dioxide sink' by consuming it in their life processes. Every plant helps a little bit. The more plants we have the more help there is... Join with others on a particular aspect where you can make a positive difference. Even if it's only pointing people to this web site. Get as many people to read this web site as you can. If they still don't "get it" then help them understand. Your helping everyone when you do that. Including the pessimists among us. We can do this. You can help. Start right now. Remember, failure is not an option. Be patient but persistent.
If nothing else take up a hobby that can help increase your awareness of how these issues are impacting our planet. Here are a few suggestions:
Associations - Join one. Have fun learning - then go teach - share how that group fits into the larger picture!
Meet with your local government representatives and discuss how to shift tax revenues in a hydrogen (or HHO) economy.
Leverage an H2Orbit program. (Start an H2Orbit club in your high school).
If you are shopping for a car then choose a hybrid automobile. Think about swapping your hydrocarbon guzzeling vehicle in for a green vehicle.
Engage others in conversation - friends, neighbors, kids, collegues - exchange views and ideas. Not all activisim is bad. Go do something.
Plant stuff - teach others why this is important and how it helps get them to plant stuff
Make sure your political party, specifically your representatives is(are) embracing the needed changes to affect policy in your country. As an example: Republicans for Environmental Protection in the United States.
Sponsor school groups to get out and landscape your community with new trees and bushes. Along side roads, parking lots, highways. Ask the community to help with funding.
SCUBA Diving - learn 1st hand about the reef systems and the ocean - then go spread the word (Click here to see links on our local diving.)

Teach - build a presentation and take it to schools at all levels - be inspirational - show them how we can solve this situation - get them thinking - inspire action
