just a thought

Well I'm proud of myself as lately I have gotten into the habit of using my "huge" purses to shop and place my purchased items in them. I am a big anti-plastic bag holder when it comes to shopping...lol. I just feel that those bags are so dangerous. Anyhow, I just wanted to share that. It's pretty neat for those who might not know this but you actually save five cents for each recycled bag you use whenever purchasing items. The other day, I was pretty disappointed with two of my co-workers/friends because they get into the habit of ordering big meals when we eat out for lunch, and then they leave most of the food there to be thrown away. I have tried to explain to them how bad it is to throw away food especially with the way our earth is looking nowadays....our landfills/disposals. Anyhow, my friend and I are trying to see if our agency will allow recycling bins to be placed on our satellite offices. We will see how that goes next week.

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.
