So step aside, haters. Here are 11 things we could do together to make Lebanon better:<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>1. Bicycle to work.<\/b><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-13-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/398474259114366760_20412436\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@omaralnimer<\/a>)<br \/>  <br \/>   In 2011, an average of 5,352 cars used the Dora-Beirut highway during rush hour. Pop quiz, peeps: What would be so much easier if we started doing things like carpooling or using alternative methods of transportation? Short answer: everything.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>2. Buy local.<\/b> <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-2-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/375172612680952358_11784969\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@matteoelkhodr<\/a>) <br \/>  <br \/>  Creating a sustainable future for Lebanon means investing in local products. If doing something good for our country is just an excuse to eat something delicious, then count me in.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>3. Support our friends next door.<\/b><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-9-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/396716988855791836_254561835\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@tonyekanaan<\/a>)<br \/>  <br \/>  A record 150,000 refugees fled Syria in February to escape the country\u2019s conflict. Helping others in times of great need is truly amazing. Yup.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>4.      Resist the urge to litter.<\/b><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-12-250x250.png\"> <br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/398569019583649053_19909244\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@neufchatel<\/a>)<br \/>  <br \/>  Good intentions: we all have them. Resist the urge to litter. Then, do one better and pick up the trash other people have dropped on the ground. Come on, people!<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>5. Love.<\/b>  <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-15-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/398497587524049189_55403621\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@charlieisawesome1<\/a>)<br \/>  This is so basic, but not nearly enough people  show unconditional, heart-meltingly wonderful love towards one another. Do this, and then congratulate yourself for acting like a decent human being.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>6. Exercise your right to be heard.<\/b> <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-8-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/399731622743047186_28236470\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@yaroush<\/a>) <br \/>  <br \/>  In February, thousands of Lebanese took to the streets to demand a pay raise and better benefits. Freedom of speech is a beautiful thing.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>7. Care about cultural heritage.<\/b> <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-4-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/398608132882337454_7125546\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@officina<\/a>)<br \/>  <br \/>  We Lebanese need to look our country in the eyes and say: \u201cScrew this, I can do better.\u201d<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>8. Vote.<\/b> <br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-7-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/398390461467037677_235837402\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">@yaramh<\/a>)<br \/>  <br \/>  I wish eating cookies would make the world a better place. Here&#8217;s something that does: voting people into power who are truly looking out for the general public&#8217;s betterment and welfare.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>9. Treat women as equals.<\/b><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-6-250x250.png\"><br \/>  (Photo Instagrammed by <a href=\"https:\/\/web.stagram.com\/p\/399905214812255319_177713452\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">mermaid_travels<\/a>) <br \/>  <br \/>  Give the women in your life the gift they deserve most: your respect. You&#8217;ll be a better person for it [Applause].<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>10.

Think: sunsets, trees and the clear blue seas. Lebanon won\u2019t stay this beautiful if we don\u2019t take care of it.<br \/>  <br \/>  <b>11. Get an awesome sidekick.<\/b><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beirut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/22360-10-250x150.png\"><br \/>  (Photo courtesy of the European Union delegation in Lebanon)<br \/>  <br \/>  When Lebanon feels like a place of irreconcilable chaos, just remember: we have cool sidekicks rooting for us on from the sidelines. The EU and its Member states are doing a number of things to help us work together to make Lebanon better.
