Why Not?
If anyone reading this, who perhaps knows they should do more yet for whatever reason don't, please comment. I want to know what obstacles or objections other people have. Maybe there can be solutions found for everyone.

Take Action Daily - Just Do It
Nike at least got something right with that slogan - Just Do It - Seriously. You know you should drive less, you know you should exercise, cycle and walk more, you know you should take the bus. But you just don't. Why? Only a very small persentage of people actually can't take any of these actions for whatever their reasons may be, but the rest of us? Who are you kidding? You either can't be bothered, you've never tried so you don't know how easy and refreshing it is, you did try once and had a bad experience so you don't try again, or, you just plain don't want to. Whatever your excuse, drop it. No more excuses, just make the commitment to one day a week for a month. Next month, two days a week. Maybe even go so far as to cut back your nasty driving habit by tree days the next month. Or not. Even if you stick with only two days a week, it shouldn't inconvenience you and at the end of the month that equals eight fresh air days for you and the air you breathe. At the very least, just try it for one month. If after that it is truly too difficult to bike, walk or take the transit more often for your errands or going to work, then by all means, jump into your polllution mobile and happily chug away. At least you gave it an honest go.
