Not OP obviously,
Making people responsible for climate change is a clever PR trick.
Most of the collected recyclable materials ends up in landfills or sent / sold to 3rd world countries, where they were dumped, burned or processesed without any environmental considerations.
Mining for rare earth materials, that are necessary for batteries and motors of EVs cause environmental destruction and conflicts, exploitation of poor people.
Textile industry is one of the biggest polluters of waterways and environment in general.
Current Disaster Capitalism and neoliberalism is the problem. And the best thing a person can do is not consuming.
