If everybody doesn’t treat climate change as a problem that they’re both the cause of and solution to, we’re never going to touch the 99%.
You think these corporations are growing almonds in the desert and raising cows because nobody buys them?
- junofan 4y agoWe’ve had fifty years of behavior change messaging. It’s time to take a different approach.
- paulcole 4y agoSocietal change (down to the individual level) is the only thing that's going to work. People will have to change how they live and make different decisions. Full stop. There's no magic solution waiting to be discovered. Whether the change comes voluntarily or through war, famine, and misery for future generations the likes of which we can't imagine is up to those of us alive today.
