Choose an external excuse:
1.) Corporations need to take responsibility and pay up for all the emissions they have generated.
2.) The government needs to allot more money towards building green energy sources.
3.) People in the developing world must stop using fossil fuels.
4.) Oil companies need to cover the cost of fixing the climate.
5.) The city needs to build better public transit.

Choose an internal excuse:
1.) My family safety depends on us having an SUV.
2.) We deserve a large home, we worked hard to get here.
3.) We cannot switch to a heat pump, gas is just so much more cost effective.
4.) Meat is central to our diets, and an excellent source of protein, who doesn't love beef?
5.) We don't have the time or money to forgo fast-shipping globalized consumer products.
