World-changer!

#Bloganuary Writing Prompt: How Are You Changing The World?

My old cartoon instincts are immediately kicking in, reminding me of my early days of fatherhood sharing the squawling, squirming infant-changing routine. Except no infant here, but a hard done by globe, polluted and sickly, lamenting the loss of dimly remembered pristine goodness.

The question for many is not how to change the world, but how to exploit it even more. I’m sure that if an audit of daily routine occurred with me, a conscientious objector, the scales would still come down heavy on me as an exploiter rather than a changer. My carbon footprint, though lighter than some, is heavier than many on this globe.

So how do I change this? By cultivating awareness. Nibbling the bit of the giant pizza that is nearest me. And maybe collecting cartoons and writing poetry.
