For the contest name, maybe just a little change to the How We Saved The World essay contest?

Essay contest title suggestion for you: "Manifest Change Essay Contest", because I feel like putting down the ideas in words is the first step in manifesting those ideas into the change we want to see.

This video from CBS Sunday Morning about two years ago so impressed a non-climate-activist friend of mine that she enthusiastically brought it to my attention.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DEl2vWfFrn8s&ved=2ahUKEwjmteT077qEAxWODzQIHWnzBEIQwqsBegQIEhAE&usg=AOvVaw3IZMM-M47Jw2cGGkc6iSJM

My hope for the video is that it inspires folks to embrace the following message.

Consumers (individuals, organizations, businesses, governments) must promptly minimize their greenhouse gas emissions to bridge the gap while we work on long-term green technology and infrastructure. Less heating and less cooling (none between 13C-30C/55F-85F, https://greenbetween.home.blog). Less driving. Less flying. Less meat-eating. Less population growth (2 children max). Do it yourself. Tenaciously encourage others to do it.

Embrace the message and tenaciously introduce the message "business card" to all you encounter. (Print the business card 12 per 8.5x11 using a file from the Promote page of the website.)

Be a climate superhero - take it to the next level. Promote the message at local events. Files for posters available on the Promote page of the website.
