I strongly disagree. You get nowhere when you let people push blame from their own actions to the actions of others (or conglomerates). The people who feel most responsible for the future of the Earth are those most likely to take action: both individual action and political action. Eating your vegetables is the answer. (Well, part of it.) It simply isn't possible for us to fix the climate unless people start eating a whole lot more vegetables, fruit, nuts, and legumes. If we were in a society with a benevolent dictator, maybe we could force people to eat more vegetables. But how, in our democracy, are you going to get our corporate-owned politicians to pass very heavy taxes on meat? It's simply not going to happen until you have a massive number of people pushing for change. Imagine trying to legalize gay marriage in a country where 95% of people oppose it. It's a nearly hopeless endeavor. If you are one of the people who eats steak and drives SUVs because you don't feel personally responsible for your contribution to climate change, then you're the problem. Personal responsibility is not opposed to political change, it's a prerequisite for it. The people who get the government to pass meat taxes will almost certainly be people who don't eat a lot of meat.
