That's fantastic you want to do something - our world needs more people like you!

There are tons of ways, from small to big but even small ones can create a ripple effect.   Here are a few ideas:

- smile and say hello to people you don't know

- really listen when people talk and show you care

- offer to help a neighbour such as shovelling snow, cutting lawns, babysitting their children, bringing over something you've made like soup or muffins, sharing your garden

- click on 'The Hunger Site' and the related sites everyday (go to http://www.thehungersite.com )

- pick up litter wherever you see it

- reduce your consumption

- recycle what you can

- eat vegetarian and organic

- get a hybrid for your next vehicle

- buy fair trade goods

- pick a cause you're passionate about and do something for it, be it fundraise, donate, write petitions, or hands-on help
