4. Try a vegetarian diet
5. Eat less “ready-made” food
6. Showering only when you need to
7. Do laundry only when you need to
8. Don’t drive a car
9. Use less electricity
10. Tell others about environmentally conscious lifestyles

There seems to be a lot of energy for Earth Day in Seoul. I imagine they are ahead of the USA for actual action on environmental matters, but would need more information if I want to be sure about that.
The kids chasing the giant balls to write a message on them, is great - they will never forget the combination of fun with a good purpose.
Thanks, PlanetThoughts, for the reflection.
Well, I think that there are many, many very involved people in the USA with a lot of interest in and commitment to improving the model of sustainability.
What’s interesting and very positive is that here in Korea (and elsewhere around the world), similar dedication is producing hope for the future.
