I believe one of the most important things people can do is protect natural habitats and life within them: conservation.
Not just saving what little we have left but reversing the destruction the human population has caused to restore and rebuild habitats that have been lost. By protecting habitats, we protect the life within them for future generations and evolution on Earth.
Below are some charities to support that are making efforts to make this happen:
