Change Makers with Rono Chonginio

The Queen of England on a hot mic uttered the words many of us who care about this planet, the lives of others, including other species, feel: It’s really irritating when they talk and don’t do. I would suggest it is more than irritating. ThenPrince William admonished the uber billionaires selling tickets to the edge of space for throwing their money up in the air instead of putting it to use on the ground. Prince William is putting his money where his mouth is. With the Earthshot prize 5 winners announced later today Sunday Oct 17th he is focused on solutions. And he is calling on everyone to raise their ambition. 

Rono Chonginio is doing just that. As a journalist, storyteller, and founder of Youthbase  he is telling the stories of people from his community and young people working to create solutions.

You too have a story and you write that story every day with every action you take. There is always a narrative, the question is who is authoring yours? We interfere with the lives of other species, changing their story from one of potential to one of tragedy and we do this every single day. Many of us have experienced this ourselves. And that is why stories connect us. Be part of the story of what happens. If you are already a change-maker I would love to hear from you. If you are part of the do nothing brigade letting everyone else dictate your story and the story of our future, well maybe you can be inspired to take more positive action.
