When
faced with world problems – like hunger, overpopulation,
nuclear weapons, the arms trade – you may be among
those who are overwhelmed by a feeling of “Help!
What on earth can I, just one person, do about
this?” Take heart. That’s a sane response. It’s
the basis for a whole new attitude to world problems,
where change at the level of the individual is
more and more recognised as essential to change
in huge world systems.
-- Scilla
Elworthy
If
you don't like something, change it; if you can't change
