RE: There are alternatives to fighting..
I have a garden. I encourage people to start out small if they haven't ever had a garden before. Baby steps. We can encourage people towards better choices. But Rome wasn't built in a day. People can feel way too overwhelmed with trying improve their lives and change the world.
People can get carried away in feeling either too optimistic or too pessimistic. You can feel like you can fix the world. You can also feel like the world is doomed. It's better to be well balanced between those two extremes and to simply be happy with what you have. Each day, wake up early and set some goals that you can do. Later on, reflect on it and readjust. Keep challenging yourself in doing what you believe in doing. It is that simple. Get involved in local communities. Encourage other people to help you out in some projects. Learn things and pass it on. Start families. Have fun. Don't be too lazy. Don't work too hard. Save money. Save things. Have gardens. Start backups. Be careful. Have fun. Eat oatmeal. Upvoted. Resteemed.
