>Governments are slow to act If we keep thinking that individual actions is the best thing to do because governments are slow to act, then, government will certainly be slow to act. That's a pretty sad self-fulfilling prophecy. I've stopped using fossil fuel transportation (living in a big, European city I can rely on my feet, my bike and the pretty good subway systems + and trains and EV when traveling). I'm going vegan and get most of my food from community-supported, organic agriculture. My electricity is 100% from renewable (solar, wind and hydro). I don't buy shit anymore and I'm doing my best to reach zero waste (not easy). I'm trying to be positive and inspire people around me (no more criticizing, just showing that many of those small actions are not that hard to do). Yet, things deteriorate pretty fast. We lost 30% of the birds in just a few decades in my country, and worst, 80% of insects. CO2 emissions are rising fast (3+% this year, while the government promised to reduce them). I can think I'm doing my part, and go on with my life. But I can't sleep. The average citizen just don't have the time, peace of mind, or resources, or the required information to act. Telling others to change their habits won't do much. We've got to organize and make big decisions. The small steps won't be enough, that's for sure (cf. https://www.france24.com/en/20180828-france-nicolas-hulot-resigns-environment-minister-macron-loses-green-credentials https://www.france24.com/en/20180828-france-nicolas-hulot-re...)
