If I could change the world...

Our children's vision for making the world a better place


A global publishing phenomenon about changing the world is hitting NZ stores. With over one million copies sold worldwide so far, the NZ edition, Change the World for $15 offers 50 simple, everyday actions to change the world that are easy for anyone to do.

It is the product of the global social change movement, We Are What We Do, that believes:
Small Actions x Lots of People = BIG Change

With simple actions such as Give Blood, Turn off Unnecessary Lights and Shop Locally, the book encourages communities to connect with each other and create collective change.

Action 31, Turn off the tap whilst brushing your teeth perfectly demonstrates the We Are What We Do formula: this wastes an average of 26,000 litres of water per family per year. By turning the tap off, the average NZ street could save enough water to fill an Olympic size pool every year.

Grab a copy and try some ideas with your class!
