Why And How Everyone Can Be a Part of the Solution

From young to old, there are many people out there who want to make a change in this planet. That doesn't mean only climate change: it means many other things, from fighting poverty to protesting against illegal gun use. It means feeding people and supporting health organizations. It means to stand up for rights.

It means so many things.

You might hear about many youth activists such as Malala Yousafzai and Greta Thunberg. There are also less popular heroes moving for action. Some might do school strikes, others might write articles, anything to make their voices heard, demanding for action.

And it's not just the young people. Everyone, including people 60 and older, can stand up for their rights or a topic they are very passionate about.

Remember: there's no maximum or minimum age to be part of the change!

So, whether you go to school or you go to work or you simply retired, take that time to do something inspirational, whether it's within the community or more widespread. Whether it's taking part of protests, planting trees, educating people, or even volunteering for a group that wants to make a difference, you're still helping to change the world to be a safer, better, cleaner place for everyone (including animals and nature) and letting your voice get heard.

If you want to follow your passion and stand up for something you care about, such as climate change, you should promise yourself that you will, no matter if it's big or small, and believe it or not, that dream will come true.
