Content: Individual responses
So what can we do as individuals to help in this process of making the world a better place to live in? Be aware of all the issues involved. “ Saving the whale” is a legitimate aim but is hardly the only issue at stake. Join an environmental pressure group. Explore careers where science can be used to benefit mankind. ( For example medicine.) Think carefully about how a particular environmental aim, or scientific achievement may adversely affect the desperately poor or the marginalised people in our communities. Act as a responsible consumer and put commercial pressure on companies who are more concerned about profit margins than the effect that policies have on people. Encourage our politicians to take a more long-term view in the policy-making. Speak out against national, corporate or individual greed.
