It's important to uderstand that what's required is a collective action, and probably an unprecedented one. If yourself and a handful (let's say 1 million) of friends opt out of society, go off grid and eat pine trees like beevers, it will make exactly zero impact on CO2 emission. Plus we'll lose your voices in the actions we do need which are of a more political type.
- perfunctory 7y agoI don't say "opt out of society". I say stay in the society, refuse to fly, and convince your friends/colleagues/bosses/employees to do the same. > what's required is a collective action Wound't that collective action include not flying? And what form do you imagine it will take - a government order that forbids flying and makes airlines illegal? I would say refusing to join your team on a trip to that fancy conference of the year takes some courage. Surely not as much courage as violating segregation laws but still.
