Create awareness among the people you inter-act.This can be practised by joining a like minded Pressure Group .As an individual, you can discuss this matter with friends and persons you are close with , but, the real effect is likely to be very less.
Joining as a member in an NGO also will allow you to be much more effective .
I wish you all the best
God Bless

The only exception I can think of is if your are a hot-shot scientist who discovers, say, a source of unlimited clean energy, or a way of reducing green-house gases biochemically...
