Big Corp and media has created this impression that you, an individual, is responsible for this and need to do all the hard work. It basically takes the focus away from those big corps like oil, gas and other industries, which are responsible for the bulk of the emission and pollution.
The solution is nothing short of a political revolution. Need to elect and support politicians who will go after these big corps because they only fear tough legislations and nothing else.

- vladus2000 7y agoVote 3rd party, participating in the 2 party system is contributing to the problem. I realize there can be issues with some of the candidates but if none of the main 2 do what you want, vote for someone else. I rarely vote for one of the 2 major parties, I would guess 1 out of 10 times I may.
- opportune 7y agoI've voted for the green party before but it felt like I wasn't doing anything. I think it's more effective to create caucuses/other groups within the existing large parties to try to get them to change. This is basically what happened with the Republican tea party and is happening now with the DSA. Both cases have been more successful than anything the libertarians or greens have tried to do
