Not my OC but what I’ve believed for years: there’s no conflict between reducing your own environmental impact and holding corporations responsible. We hold corps responsible for the environment by creating a societal ethos of environmental responsibility that forces corporations to serve the people’s needs or go bankrupt or be outlawed. And anyone who feels that kind of ethos will reduce their own environmental impact because it’s the right thing to do.
Thoughts?
If they can’t handle it now at least in some degree, then I don’t see how they’ll be able to handle it in a much worse degree after we make these large reforms and changes. My fear is that these people will turn away from us as soon as things get too hard and run into the arms of the first strongman who tells them they’ll make it all better.
I also do not see it as gatekeeping to ask people to do better. Nobody is saying they can’t vote with us. We’re just asking them to not wait until forced to make at least some changes.
