Electrification is a big topic. But you can always start with little things like changing to an electric mower instead of a gasoline powered one. Community work is also important, but I honestly don't know where to start...

May I share a post recently from our own slrpnk.net? @Pencilnoob shared a bunch of info about volunteering with local fire squads that I found really insightful! Turns out it's not all about running into burning buildings c: https://slrpnk.net/post/40223075
