    Thank you for all of this! I want to help and wasn’t sure how besides limiting plastic and making small personal steps. I registered, so I hope my vote can make a difference too!

    Thank you so much for sharing this. Going to send this link to some of my friends who still don’t vote! it’s hard to believe anyone could still not vote but it’s true!

    Another great post – I need to be better about voting in midterms – and this post alone gave me the motivation to be on top of this.

    Thank you for sharing these resources! Voting is SO important especially in this political climate and people need to know how and why their votes count. Thanks for spreading the message 🙂

    Thanks Jess! I created a new folder on my computer and added each of these websites for reference.

    Thank you for this post. I am trying to be a better global citizen both by voting (at the ballot and with my money – the companies I support) and by my individual actions (recycling, reducing waste, gas consumption, etc). It is helpful to have these resources when hitting up the ballot box.

    I studied environmental science for my masters degree and when my husband went to Harvard some of his classmates would ask me if climate change was “really real.” I was blown away by the ignorance of these highly educated, intelligent people. Unfortunately, years of think tanks and politicians spreading misinformation has turned science into politics. Spreading accurate information is key, so thank you for focusing on this issue and using your platform to help people create change!

    This is so, so helpful! With so much going on in the world that needs to be addressed ASAP, it’s important to remember that the environment is still a really pressing issue we can consider when voting.

    Really appreciate you compiling these resources. I think they are all non-partisan as well. Also your insta story reminder to call reps who already support measure you believe in. Forgot that reps to to know the public supports them too.
