Influencing policy is a stronger action than adjusting your individual behaviour. A letter written to your local MP can echo in the higher echelons of power. Imagine your representative telling the Prime Minister: “my constituents are demanding greener energy and transport”. It takes 15 minutes. Charities such as Friends of the Earth provide templates. It’s low-effort, high-impact.
