I guess a lot of people are here not only to earn money from posting, but because the power to the people-ideals that are important for much of the crypto world. Using crypto is a middle finger to the banks. A small one. But if there are enough of them it will be enough! So why not show the middle finger to selfish mining companies, polluting the planet to enrich themselves?
I want to encourage people to visit https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions and have a look at their current petitions. The website is a bit like Avaaz but completely focused on environmental questions. By signing a petition you can help influencing governments and international corporations. For example you could help stop a unique woodland from turning into a massive pulp tree plantation: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions/1125/mozambique-stop-a-giant-pulp-project-in-the-miombo-woodlands or ask EU officials to start taking plastic pollution more seriously: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions/1124/were-drowning-in-plastic-tell-the-eu-to-act Here you can see a list of successful petitions, that has helped create national parks, stop mining projects etc: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/achievements
