Find ways to travel a mile in their shoes or chairs, and listen to them. Amplify their voices in calling for improvements.

Het grondwater is vervuild: overal zit pfas of andere vervuiling
Het grondwater in Nederland is bijna overal vervuild met pfas en andere verontreinigende stoffen die van nature niet in het milieu voorkomen. Bij slechts 4 procent van de meetpunten was het water vorig jaar echt schoon.

According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.
Just the start.
Common sense.
