The creation and consumption of books are pivotal to the health of our environment.
As an author, blogger, content creator, or journaling enthusiast, it is important to focus on creating both personal and professional eco-friendly content.
When you write, you can introduce environmentally conscious characters who deliberately work to improve their everyday world. For example, recycling could be a positive trait for your protagonist, while your antagonist might have the nasty habit of indiscriminately disposing of waste- further driving their negative persona. In this way, you can subtly incorporate eco-friendly practices without distracting readers from the core story.
You should also embrace eco-friendly practices yourself. Here are a few ways to get started:
- Buy more eBooks.
- Donate the books you’ve already read to other readers or a library.
- Use non-paper means of communication and expression.
As the world changes, making the earth a safer and better place for everyone is a collective effort, but it starts with each of us doing our part. If we all take the necessary steps, no matter where we are, we can create a significant positive impact on the world.
Happy Earth Day, from all of us at ChoWilson.
