A group of students thought it would be great to collect portraits of climate heros from all over the world. That’s what they say: “If we show people that if those local climate heros can make the effort, then anybody can. Let them see that what they are doing is rapidly becoming the norm, not the exception. Your climate heros don’t need to be famous. We’d like to show people just like you and me – with the little difference that they care. The goal is to realize an impressive exhibition of portraits from all over the world.”
a) What are the most important things people in your country need to change in order to become climate heros?
b) Some participants of this projects don’t like the word “hero”. Which other words could we use instead?
a) The most important things are:
- use public transport instead of cars
- economical use of natural resources
- protect / build nature reserves
- less comuting by plane (example: Zürich - London)
- try to keep your working place near your home
b) Other possible words would be "activist", "protector", "greenhouse gas killer", "chiller" or "cooler".
