Delta Sky Magazine did an excellent piece in their March issue on the power of one: doing something once that can have a profound effect on the environment. Here is an example:
If every newspaper reader in the U.S. recycled just one Sunday paper and all its inclusions, it would generate 212 million pounds of cellulose insulation, enough to insulate 118,767 Habitat for Humanity homes, twice as many homes as Habitat has built in the U.S. so far.

The idea is to live our lives consciously and think about each thing we do that can have an impact on our world.
