Humanity and the Planet are facing multiple challenges and emergencies, especially after the "10,000-year period of biological diversity and remarkable stability that allowed the emergence of human civilization is now in danger".
For a proactive action plan for one aspect, see chapter 9 in

Protecting and saving our cultural resources certainly is a good way to start, and while doing it let us respect our precious environment.

First, we shouldn't try to change the world, but change ourlselves. For instance, become vegetarian and save the climate. For more info why all global green movements silence the truth that meat eating is more dangerous to our planet than emission of carbo dioxide please see www.cowspiracy.com
Many special thanks for your message John!
Totally agree with you. But "protecting and saving our cultural resources" is very much about education and how we learn to respect the precious environment.

Many special thanks for your message Arnoldas!
To change you from each one of us, but to want this we believe that the path of knowledge is the solution for all of us, and not least education to be environmentally friendly.

"Save the planet" - a comment as meaningless as the non-actions of "path of knowledge ", "environmentally friendly", "respect for the environment." These are not actions but simply virtue signaling and provocation to pet theories (e.g. above-cited "Stockholm Paradox") and biases - vegetarianism.
Science addresses phenomena - suggest folks identify the phenomenon against which they propose remedial action and importantly the metrics in context they claim would result.
The best think is that every body change their habits of consumption. It is not easy, because it's necessary that you, me and the rest must change ourselves radically and everyday . To do that is not necessary sophisticated and expensive measures, but moral and serious ones. Do make silence in your mind, listen and meditate. The change will come by itself.
Encouraging alternative energy and a green economy
Trying to stop industrial pollution
Building dams to conserve water and encourage forest planting
The collaborative economy, the circular economy and the ecological economy are the current concepts of the economy that I consider we need to apply locally (sustainable rural ecological development and smart green cities), regionally, nationally, at European and global level the same principles of maintaining a Green Planet.
By protecting and preserving material culture, and being aware and compliant with the planet overall ecology is one of the few steps responsible people can take
Personal commitment and determination to meet collective, humanistic, social and solidarity responsibilities.
I think by reducing the pace of exploitation of natural resources and animal wealth ...
Past one month, due corona lockdown, global climatic changes are improved , free from pollution, emissions, fresh air, etc. For future, we should think green energy, emphasis on effluent treatment, reduction in CFC and other ODS, afforestation, etc.
Folks should consider that current global shutdown will lower emissions by est'd 7-10%, well below the Paris targets for major countries (except for China). Global economies and major population segments will not survive if this were to continue. Consider for a moment the impact this was expanded to achieve what is demanded to hold at 1.5C.
