3. Green Social Media Activism
Green social media activism is an increasingly effective way of bringing about important changes to the way we deal with the environment. Businesses that are reluctant to make these changes on their own are being forced to respect the earth by a growing number of online activists. 350.org is a great example of a huge global environmental movement. Events like 10/10/10, Earth Day and Earth Hour are not only raising awareness, they serve as platforms for tangible actions in support of the environment. Technologies like video are a highly accessible social media that is widely disseminating environmental messages.
