Preaching about it IS doing something about it

In some cases, yes, but not in all cases. For example, preaching the morality of vegetarianism on an internet forum would not be constituted as doing something about the killing of animals. Preaching to others in real life about being vegetarian is not doing something about the killing of animals.

Speaking on a subject doesn't always consitute actually doing something about the subject. At all.
