At a low level:

- Have fewer children

- Burn fewer fossil fuels (less driving, flying, heating, cooling, more wearing sweaters at home in winter, etc)

- Eat less meat

- Develop technologies to create energy without fossil fuels

At a higher level

- Stop associating consumption and material accumulation with happiness

- Stop targeting growth (population, GDP, etc) as solution to so many problems

- Take personal responsibility for what you do. Stop saying if others don't change my change won't make a difference. You are responsible for what you do even if others don't change.

At the top level:

- Change you beliefs and goals so that instead of asking others, you find what you can do and do it. There is overwhelming amounts of information for what you can do already on the web. If you want to act, act.
