It's the overwhelming number of people who want to say
they're green, but still own two cars, never take public
transport, eat meat daily, live in big houses, and buy
buy buy.
This is the classic neoliberal "individual responsibility" framing, meant to cast global warming purely as a personal moral issue, and deflect attention from regulating corporations, which burn the majority of fossil fuels. Ending corn ethanol and oil industry subsidies will do far more than guilting people to buy electric cars.
