Try to think of a subject or a cause which you think is really important and decide why you think it is important. Is there an area of the world or an animal which you are particularly interested in or which you know is endangered? Do you know about any human activities which are damaging the planet? Is there a place which you love visiting and would like others to be able to visit too?
