Social
Responsibility
This includes our behavior, our thoughts and our actions that support
the creation of the world in which we live. It means extending yourself beyond
your own personal sphere so as to add something positive to your environment
and the world. This means to get out and vote and serve in your community.
To support your community by shopping locally and volunteering with local
organizations and nonprofits.
Look at the world around you, your environment, the economy, the ecology,
and you know what to addressed. Whether it is animal rights, child abuse or economic and political
strife your voice can count.
Here are some of the issues that Social Responsibility
include:
Political Activism
- A vigorous action in support of a controversial
issue can bring about a positive resolution.
- Acting as a “citizen”,
you can make a difference.
- Getting involved can be as simple as writing a letter.

a more personal involvement.
- Some place their lives on the line.
Civil Disobediance

group or individual to disobey an unjust law, including submitting to imprisonment
in protest against discrimination, oppression, and destruction.
- Civil Disobedience is the most powerful
method of effecting change.

and great women and men around the world declare it a duty to act in accord with your conscience.
