Yes, of course it is a good thing to cut down on plastic use, walk to school and turn the lights off.
But we will never get anywhere with protecting the environment if big companies and governments don't take responsibility for their actions.
They contribute to climate change as much as many individual people trying to make a difference do, so it is only reasonable that they take their share of the responsibility of combatting climate change.
Especially as these companies and governments have the money and resources to make a big difference.
Yes, we as individuals can change things in the world by changing things in our lives, but we won't get very far without pressuring the big players to change.
And hey, I'm talking to you climate conscious person who calls people out on a regular basis over there, next time you are about to hassle a disabled person over their plastic usage, stop, consider your actions and go make a complaint to a big company instead. There are actually helpful ways to channel your concern for the environment.
