Or might you be able to say this?

‘I learnt as much as I could, about what was really going on.

‘I looked up what the Sustainable Development Goals (“the SDGs”) were all about and picked three that I wanted to go deeper into;

‘I signed up to receive a daily email from “Ecowatch” and started listening to podcasts and Ted Talks and reading articles on Social and Environmental issues – and started to share good ones with our family and friends and people at work – and I read Professor Yuval Harari’s books, as a good starting point.”

‘Your dad and I spoke to each other about what else we could do. So we agreed on several ways we could try to “stop being part of the problem” and change our lives. And we made a start: 

• We changed our cars to electric cars;
• We took recycling seriously, cut out plastic bottles and plastic bags.
• I went right through my investments and ensured all my portfolio was in SDG-compliant businesses and green/clean industries;
• we agreed we would fly less and train more.
• We took up biking and planted more trees.
• We began to only eat meat twice a week, not five days a week!
