To me, the idea of Blog Action Day has great intentions behind it. I actually think that each post we add, each comment we make, any day of the year, is a way to take positive action and inspire people to evolve and grow. Expanding your mindset is a way to change your world view. You can only ever change yourself. Other people must decide for themselves what action is right for them.
It is all about showing up to pay respect to the Earth and to ourselves. If we don’t start shifting priorties, what we stand to lose can be a huge cost to us all.
Liara, I feel what you say is true, although writing my post for the environment on a day selected by the organizers has re-energized my commitment. And it’s been very synchronistic with the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Lorraine, the power of showing up! Nothing shifts unless we do. I too feel respecting the Earth is also about self-respect.

Beautiful post Pamir,
It is all about showing up to pay respect to the Earth and to ourselves. If we don’t start shifting priorties, what we stand to lose can be a huge cost to us all.
Warmly,
Lorraine
