Personally, I LOVE the idea of adopting a highway or street. You can do this in the USA and Canada, but even if you can't "officially" do it in some other country -- why don't you do it anyway?\n\nJust go out every Saturday and pick up the trash along the road (remember your gloves!!!) and you'll certainly be beautifying your environment.

Ten simple things you can do to help the "Earth": \n\n1) Recycle\n2) Purchase only "energy star" appliances\n3) shower outdoors with a solar-heated shower\n4) Use only recycled products\n5) Eat organic\n6) Be certain your insulation is properly installed\n7) Use public transportation\n8) Turn the water off when brushing your teeth\n9) Only wash full loads of dishes/laundry\n10) Air-dry your clothes rather than using a dryer

Look for neighborhoods that need care & someone to help, stroll around to meet people, give out a few starter plants, help an elderly person for a hour - word will spread as you grow.  Sponser Arbor Day, Earth Day, Recycle or other community projects.  Get involved with community partnerships & volunteer to lead a youth cleanup at a neglected park.  I am in a similiar business and find working with communities is easier, fun, & very rewarding.

Just do your bit to help. There are plenty of things that you can do! Help the environment. Dont just not litter and think that you just helped. Go volunteer, go overseas and be an aid worker, council people who have to put up with violence, use whatever power u do have to tell people about world problems even if it is just family or friends, they have knowledge as well and im sure they will share it with you.\n\nDO NOT be scared of terrosts. All they do is blow up cars, not buildings. George bush blows up buildings and makes himself and his buddies 500 hundred times more profit!\n\nDont listen to everything you hear, experience as much as you can and make up your own set of beliefs. \n\nStay away from processed foods, they are POISION. They make you sick in the head and in the body. Stay out of cities, yes u can make a lot of money there but the air is dirty and so are the zombies that all work there too.\n\nWhen you are old and laying on your death bed, what are u going to think? What did you do in your lifetime that you can really say u are proud of? Did you help out that poor little orphan muslim girl, whos parents were murdered or did you buy a house and have a family, than divorce become lonely and go through countless partness trying to find purity again?\n\nBecome as self sufficant as you can be? can you live of your vegie patch? How about your fruit trees? have you planted enough trees toi counteract the car u drive, the air u breath ect or do u think someone else might do it for you?\n\nMake your life an adventure! Dont do what is normal, do what u can and want to.  Do it today. Meet people who u wouldnt usually! Make your life yours!\n\n Violence is the worst form of communication, so dont use it! I hope I could help..... Goodluck finding your answers and remeber that peace MUST start from the inside.

Call the local area humane society, I'm sure they need volunteers. I think it's wonderful that you want to help.

first know what you want to do...a great place to start would be at a local hospital or your church. There is always the Salvation Army and the Goodwill. And don't forget the elderly neighbor who can't mow his or her lawn. That's also volunteering!

Try getting a job at the land fill.  I am sure there is still a rather significant amount of contaminated land in New Orleans, or you could all ways move to Chernobyl.  You could also try looking into Green Peace or other Environmentally friendly organizations, I am sure they accept volunteers.

You can't change the world, but you can help.  Look for things you can do as an individual.  Perhaps volunteer with a youth group or at a soup kitchen.  Become involved.  You will help others and you will get a wonderful feeling inside.

"Everyone wants to save the planet. No one helps mom with the dishes" - P.J. O'Rourke.  Fix the problems at hand and work your way up. Seldom if ever will folks not in the top power positions get to make the difference you seem to want to attempt. Try doing something smaller first. Simple acts of human kindness count, too!

You may be able to find a volunteer through local charities or voluntary advocacy services. failing that you could try to learn basic phrases in the persons mother tongue, or you can just carry on doing what you are doing and communicating on a human level, I'm sure they sense that you care and that's what really matters.

"Think globally, act locally"  Do your part in your daily life by recycling, buying products with less packaging where possible, support local companies that have proactive recycling campaigns, use organic cleaning products and spread the word to your friends about the importance of everyone doing their part to reduce environmental pollution.

you could start with flyers for volunteers in public access areas, eg grocery stores, public offices etc you could use the same technique for donations. website could be another source of gathering volunteers and donations, a volunteer could make the website too, good luck
