    Do what you can to stop feeding the petroleum products industry. They use the money you give them to literally fuel this crisis.

    • Choose an EV or hybrid for your next car
    • Stop buying plastic storage containers and avoid plastics wherever you can

    If you own your home, check into federal, state, and local rebates for these things:

    • Replace your HVAC when it’s time with a heat pump
    • Replace your water heater when it’s time with an electric or heat pump model
    • If you live in a cold climate, look into electric-based heated flooring
    • Look into solar panels for your roof

      Adding to these good suggestions: shop at thrift stores.

      And if you have time: volunteer at a thrift store.
