#9: All the Cool Kids Care
When you were younger, the want to do something often came from seeing other “cool” people doing the same thing. The peer pressure from this sort of thing was always very strong, and even though you aren’t meant to feel this kind of pressure as an adult, it is very much still there.
But unfortunately, that kind of pressure doesn’t always work for every type of social issue. If only we were able to make people care more about planet earth and the environment by telling them it was cool to do so the world would probably be in much better stead.
