Doing Our Bit For a Better World
Fed up with the way we are destroying the planet and governments talk without achieving anything? Michael Norton and Hilary Blume will show us how to change the world and try to make it a better place through actions available to each and every individual whether it is going “unshopping”, building a skip sculpture or giving a goat.
Michael Norton founded UnLtd, a charity which supports social entrepreneurs - people who have the ideas and the commitment to make a difference in their communities. He also founded Changemakers, YouthBank UK and the Go Change the World ambassadors. He is the author of 365 Ways to Change the World. Find out more about how to do your bit by visiting www.365act.com
