Yeah, blame the poor people who live week to week and not the multinational corporations dumping garbage into the sea and spewing poison into the air by the tons.

100 companies cause 70% of all emissions. And renewables haven’t taken off to the point where everyone can power their homes and vehicles totally sustainably. So if given the choice to freeze in the winter and burn in the summer, I’m positive the majority of the population will continue to pay their gas and electric bills and drive their cars to continue to survive.

If the government and corporations wanted to force significant change that would allow everyone to live more sustainably, they could do it. But they don’t. And don’t tell us that biking to work and using paper straws will help, because we’re not the ones mass producing all this garbage for consumption.
