dc.description | The choices you make every day can have important and lasting consequences for the planet. Your power is in your decisions, which means you can contribute to transforming the global economy. The food you eat, the clothes you wear, the places you go – all of those activities carry costs and opportunities. How you can balance those costs, both for your wallet and for the environment, shows how important your choices can be. Businesses respond to what consumers want, and more and more consumers are demanding sustainability from their favorite brands. And they’re being listened to!
You can also take this power as your voice to be heard by government, to urge more sustainable policies – like smarter transportation options. If you can live a conscious life, and explore the choices you make every day, you can transform every action into a sustainable action for a sustainable future. We have an opportunity, together, to build back better as the world recovers from Covid-19. What choices are YOU going to make to contribute? | en_US |
