Supporting the Message
Atraction's action communities are created to help people plug-in and engage after seeing our films. Help us continue our work and support the message by buying our DVDs, T-shirts or other cool things related to our films. The films we make are created to raise awareness and help foster change around issues of the environment, social justice, consciousness, health and well-being. With each film we launch and action community and conduct educational tours of the film to universities and schools. We also create teaching materials that help people dive deeper into the subject. By purchasing a DVD, or other things, you help spread the message.
Purpose
The purpose of this website is to inspire people to take action. We encourage people to take action at home and in their communities. On this social action website, you will see thousands of examples of what people have chosen to do to make the world a better place. We believe that when people see what other people are doing, it helps them take action too. So we ask that you open a profile, and tell us what action you are doing, perhaps you are going to plant a vegetable garden, or you are going to help start a recycling program at school, whatever it is, let us know and tell us how it's going. You can post videos, pictures and statements. If you need inspiration, check and see what people have done by looking on the action map or joining a group that has already started. Together, step by step, action by action, we can create a healthy and just world.
Take Action
Stop talking. Now is the time. Take action here.
31st January Environment Education day
The Four Seasons Hotel made in contact with us. They want to see what we are doing so they can get ideas for their own Green Globe Group. They will send six representatives to observe our activities on Thursday and then ask questions of the students about how they did what they did, and why.
The class has been preparing activites and visual aids for the younger students.
It is interesting to see how the students process information and then redirect it to a younger audience. For exapmle: What is GLOBAL WARMING?"Global warming is the Earth getting hotter as pollution warms the air and melts the ice."
What is POLLUTION? "Pollution is things like rubbish in the rivers, smoke from fires, gases form cars. Sometimes you can;t even see it."
Al Gore has said that only when people really ACCEPT the need to change, will change occur. These students are learning the need for change and slowly accepting changes into their lives. We began this semester with a pledge to minimise our use of the airconditioner. It is now set at 21 degrees, we try to use it only after break time, we live in the tropics and have to work out the useage on a daily basis, we often have power cuts and low power days that also limit our use.
