"I always try to ask for a vegan option when I'm at a restaurant. If more people ask the question and show restaurants that there is demand, it provides an incentive to expand the selection." says Kalle Nilvér, co-founder of GoClimate. Sometimes, the small actions you can do in your everyday life could be the most powerful ones. What small actions do you make today?

Evelina Utterdahl is an activist in climate and environmental issues as well as human rights. Her personal experience about how she became vegan shows how much the choices you make can influence other people. "For me, it was enough that ONE person close to me went vegan - then I went vegan myself. We are incredibly influenced by norms. We are more affected by what people in our surroundings do than we realize. Therefore, what we do matters, that we show it, and talk about it."

"We shouldn't aim to be a few who are perfect - but many who do enough.” We’ve talked to a few climate profiles about the small things you can do to create a butterfly effect and system change. This week we present Annika Sundin, Greenfluencer running the Instagram account @medveten_i_stan, with her best tips. "Use a free online carbon footprint calculator to see what your biggest emission sources are and thereby where to start.
