Changing Lives

When I showed people our project, 3/4 people were convinced about climate change/global warming and it's impacts. I was successful in showing them that they could make changes in their lives. Only one person had to think about it. I think that person did not agree because it takes a lot of character to try and change their routine each day. Most people will not even try. I think I was successful in convincing most of the people because when they saw the project, they learned the impacts of global warming/climate change and were shocked. They admitted that when they heard of marine life impacts, they never stopped to consider it. They told me that they now know the importance of making small changes in their daily lives.
I learned from this experience that when you are trying to convince somebody to do something really big to their lives, you need a big impact about the problem. For example, if you are trying to convince someone to do little things in their lives to halt global warming/climate change, you need to tell them a big impact, such as marine life getting affected. Yes, some people may not care, but others might get frightened. They will vow to make a change in their lives.
If I were to do this project again, I would elaborate more on what was said in the project. I would use more facts and give more reasons why people should make a change.
