Here is David Pollard's "list of forty actions -- technological, social, entrepreneurial, political -- that could create a new 'tipping point' to restore our planet's, and our, health." I find this list inspirational and of good use for those seeking a more meaningful and rewarding role in their life on this planet. Though I strongly disagree with the discounting of economics and technology as potential solvers of the sad state we have placed ourselves in, I support in full Dave's effort in systematically analyzing and detailing the possible road ahead. This is in fact the new Save the World Roadmap (already published last year) but now "taken down to the personal, practical, present-day level. It answers the question: What Can I Do Now?"." Here the key actions to take:

1. Trust your instincts


2. Listen, Learn, and Teach Others


3. Learn and Practice Critical Thinking


4. Re-Learn How to Imagine


5. Use Less Stuff


6. Stop at One


7. Become Less Dependent


8. Become an Activist


9. Volunteer


10. Be a Role Model


11. Be a Pioneer


12. Find or Create a Meaningful Job


13. Share Your Expertise


14. Be Good to Yourself


15. Infect Others With Your Spirit and Passion
