Not so much a question of being the right kind of person as finding the right kind of project, I think. I'm not really thinking of founding one on my own. But I do think things like that already exist. I need to find out more about them, obviously.
This could have the added benefit of salving my conscience in more ways than one. Ideally, I'd like some kind of communal living, eco-type/sustainability-focused project - something that shows a possible way forward out of the whole mess we're in, not just regarding one aspect of it.

True. It's indeed a multi-dimensional issue, and solutions will only work if they consider all aspects of it, as well as the dynamics between them.
