Green Anxiety

Have you felt anxious about saving the planet? You want to do all possible things that help save the planet; recycling, buying organic products, making compost, using renewable energy, etc. But, you cannot do it all; therefore you start to feel bad and inefficient because the consequences of your actions make the planet be in peril. Let me give you an advice. For instance, the other day I was feeling stressed about using plastic bags for my groceries but suddenly it occurred to me to go walking to the Walt-Mart buy the reusable bags, neither plastic nor paper, buy my groceries and come back walking to my home. It was a fifteen minutes walk. I felt so invigorated with the walk that I start to thing positive about every thing. I started thinking that I was superman saving the world because with the walk for my groceries in my reusable bags I was exercising myself, I was not contaminating by not using the car and also I was using my reusable groceries-bags. The point is that you have to start some how thinking about all positives outcomes that come from your pro-green actions and intentions as little as they are. Keep up your good actions and persuade others to do more for the planet. When all together do little by little we are in the road to help save planet earth. I hope this advice can alleviate some of your green anxiety
