This is a very fair point. While it should be messaged as a major change that can be made it also has to be in the context of not the ONLY change to be made.

- perihelions 3y ago- "should be messaged" Why? It's purely counterproductive. Framing a political issue as "this is a moral failing by you, personally; and you must suffer and live ascetically to improve yourself in order to" whatever is a surefire way to get utterly rejected.
- karpierz 3y ago> you must suffer and live ascetically What do you think veganism is?
- perihelions 3y agoAs I said and meant: asceticism, in service of a religious or moral principle. I respect what it is, but that *is* fundamentally what it is: people rejecting pleasurable things.
- NovaDudely 3y agoSorry "should" was a very blunt word to use there. But if one is to project the message about reduced consumption, it shouldn't just be framed in a narrow aspect of a single action. Also, while this is political it is also about the actions of a individuals. The rain drop doesn't blame itself for the flood, but the flood is made of rain drops.
