Para.1
Most people suffer from what is known as "Just-me-ism". What is that Well, say you leave the tap running while you brush your teeth, leave a light on when you go out or you drop a piece of litter and can't be bothered to pick it up. You know that all those things are wrong, but so what "What difference can it possibly make " you say to yourself. "There are millions of people in the world and I'm just me. How can it matter if I leave one little tap running, one little light on or leave a little piece of litter on the road And anyway, no one will know." Of course, it wouldn't matter if there were just a few people in the world. But just think of all the millions of people saying to themselves: "It doesn't matter. It's just me. And, anyway, no one knows."Millions of gallons of water would be wasted; millions of lights would be left on; millions of pieces of litter would be dropped. And all of this would be very harmful.

Para. 1
1. What do people call these above behaviours
These above behaviours are called “Just-me-ism”.
2.What is “Just-me-ism”
“Just-me-ism” is a way of thinking that focuses on
caring for just oneself and ignores the environment, animals and
the community.
3.Why is “Just-me-ism” a problem
There will be nobody to care and look after the environment.
3. Do you have any suggestions on how to solve the problem
A solution would be to make them understand that even the
smallest action can change the world, so they should take
actions whenever possible for the environment, animals and
their community. For example, they should turn the tap off
when brushing their teeth, turn the light off when they leave a
room and pick up even little pieces of litter they dropped on
the road.

Roots& Shoots is an International Environmental Education Organization by
Dr. Jane Goodall.
To inspire young people to take action for the environment, animals and their community, Roots & Shoots was established. This institute was set up in the early 1990s by Dr. Jane Goodall, a scientist who's the world's best-known expert on wild chimpanzees. In addition to her research, she has been whole-heartedly committed to environmental protection. The whole purpose of Roots & Shoots is to educate young people, from pre-schoolers to university students, so they can help to build a future that is secure and live together in peace with nature.
The organisation is called Roots &Shoots because roots move slowly under the ground to make a firm foundation, and shoots seem small and weak, but they can break open brick walls to reach the light. The roots and shoots are you, your friends and young people all around the world. Hundreds and thousands of roots and shoots can solve the problems, change the world and make it a better place to live in.

Para. 4
Do you think you help to make the world a better place when you make a sad person smile, when you make a dog wag its tail, and when you water a thirsty plant One cheered-up person, one happy dog, one flowering plant, and you. That's what Roots & Shoots is all about: the value and importance of each individual—human, animal or plant. Dr. Jane Goodall believes that the most important thing is that: "Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference." You get to choose: Do you want to use your life to make the world a better place for people, animals and the environment Do you want to make Roots & Shoots rooted in everyone's heart Do you want to be a part of a community for a shared future You cannot be absent. It is by acting together, in this exciting way, that we can involve thousands—millions—of people, and this is what is going to change the world.—Jane Goodall

"Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference."
The sentence means that every person is important and has a valuable
part to play in the world. No matter how small or insignificant a
person may feel, the things they do can have an impact on others and
on the world as a whole. Each person has the ability to make a positive
difference in their own unique way. The statement encourages
individuals to recognize their own value and the significance of their
actions, no matter how small they may seem.
It is by acting together, in this exciting way, that we can involve thousands—millions—of people, and this is what is going to change the world.—Jane Goodall
This sentence means that to make a significant impact and bring
about change in the world, people need to come together and work
together in an exciting way. By doing so, they can involve
thousands or even millions of people in their cause, which can
ultimately lead to significant change. The focus is on the power of
collective action rather than individual efforts.
