TRANSCRIPT
The construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline requires
funding, and the majority of the funding comes from banks
that invest it into oil companies. If I want to make a change
and protest against unsustainable environmental policies
like this DAPL, I should be aware of what my bank's beliefs
are set upon. Are they investing against or for better
environmental policies? I also realized that art and
environmental activism do go hand-in-hand with one
another because it can help poetry a sense of activism
towards sustainable policies.
My Takeaway from Andrea Bowers
TAKE ACTION research whether your bank is on the right track
Personally I would not change my credit union. This is because they are "For people, Not profit." North Orange County's Credit Union is a member owned entity, rather than stockholder ownership, whichallows it to be more attentive to community-based issues. https://www.orangecountyscu.org
MY CREDIT UNION DOES ALIGN WITH MY VALUES. I WILL CONTINUE TO STAND BY ORANGE COUNTY'S CREDIT UNION.Zulema Morales

I chose this action because I find it ironic that the
Smithsonian is all about environmental education
and activism,yet they're not practicing it with their
magazines. The Smithsonian is a huge role model,
when it comes to the environment, therefore, they
should remember to set an example with every
action they make. Hopefully the Smithsonian will
recognize this unsustainable practice, and enact
change.
Smithsonian: Practice What You Print
Sure physical receipts may help keep you
in check with spending and sure they may
help you when you're buying presents for
others. but the big problem is that they
also create lots of waste. Try to limit
yourself and instead of getting a paper
receipt for every purchase opt for an
electronic receipt. Simply declining a
paper receipt can also help reduce paper
waste. Who doesn't want to keep their
forests intact?
