THE DARING KIDS

Small Steps...that make a difference

A cool welcome to all friends and guests at this blog. It has been a really long time since an entry at this blog has been planned, and the vision articulated.

This blog is a place that will bring together not only the people around the nation who think similarly, but the people around the whole globe who think and believe that small steps matter.

Small steps that change the world, small steps that need not seem to be revolutionary ones, but small ones that go beyond an individual level, and make a difference.

For it is these small steps that change the way we think, change the way we do things that make a difference to the local communities, small steps that stick to us as an inspiration.

This blog stands for this vision - bringing together small steps that have been taken or are being taken around the world...but every bit of it translates into an inspiration...an inspiration for us not to become revolutionaries, not to become social outcasts, not to keep criticizing this plane - but simply, and I mean SIMPLY, begin taking small steps around their communities, and save this planet.

If you feel you have recently read or have contributed Small Steps, feel free to pitch in, and the team would be more than glad to present it here.

Hoping to build steps at this forum from now on!

Small STEPS in your lifestyle...

Recently saw an interview of the Chief of Global Cool, an organization to reduce Global Warming. Their campaign "Global Cool" aims to spread awareness about Global Warming, and how each one of us can do our bit to reduce it. Mission – Signing up one billion people who work together to save their planet!

No $100 cheques, no extreme sacrifices, no staid lifestyle - continue doing what you do, as you do it - just see how much you can contribute and change your lifestyle accordingly.

How do you know what you can contribute? Simple! There is a workout card that you can create for yourself - check where you can save CO2 emission and help create a cooler planet.

Some of these steps are as simple as using shower instead of a bath, switching off the power switch if not being used, avoiding standby modes for your comps/TVs, avoiding high power lights and many more.

Have a look at these simple steps to gain an insight on how you can work towards this
