I can imagine the "effectiveness" of this protest... I feel like if you are going to endure personal sacrifice to make a stand, you need to consider what the overall impact/objective is and make sure you are doing the right thing to achieve that objective. There were probably far better paths to go down for these folks.
- BackODaEnvelope 10y agoI don't think of it as a personal sacrifice. I longer have the blood of innocents on my conscience. Also: I now own most of my own time, which is my highest value. Low consumption living isn't the sacrifice I thought it would be when I started. To each their own.

Also, for me the sacrifice would not be low consumption living but rather riding around in an RV singing folk songs. Sounds like torture. As you say, to each their own. I actually really enjoy what I do for a living.
