Yes i do because i’m one of many. Maybe i can’t convince you to make a difference but i’m not going to just say ‘oh well, nothing can be done’. Vote with your wallet. They’re making things because people are buying them. Stop buying them. Vote for governments that make it cost prohibitive to create emissions. Join the citizens climate lobby. Just because one drop in the bucket seems insignificant doesn’t mean we cant collectively stop dripping. Make it the collective norm to be minimalist, make it awkward to consume in excess. Do something, but don’t pretend that we, the mass of people that are consuming things don’t directly impact the decisions of those 100 companies.
Thank God there’s people like you replying here. The defeatist stuff is crazy to me.
I door knock and work on campaign teams for leftist candidates and have seen such success it’s boggling to me that people sit back and decide they cannot do anything about it.
I 100% agree.
The change we need isn’t the perfect set of policies, what we need is a cultural shift. When people are personally invested in resolving climate change, they’ll push for changes in corporations, legislation, etc. If people don’t care, it’s not going to happen or happen very slowly.
So do what you can to set a good example for your neighbors, friends, and coworkers.
