Have you heard of “We are what we do”? It’s a social change movement with a very simple but powerful philosophy: small actions x lots of people = Big Change! “We are what we do” are the creators of this quirky, original book. It offers 30 small actions that just about anybody can do: things like walking your dad, loving your old stuff, not charging your cellphone overnight. You would have to be the world’s grumpiest pessimist not to finish the book with a smile on your face and a feeling that yes, you can make a difference!
